Study summary

This is a prospective, multi-center, multi-cohort exploratory study. Cohort 1 enrolls 39 patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer, who will receive first-line treatment with cisplatin plus nab-paclitaxel (Ⅱ), capecitabine, and gemcitabine (PAXG).

Cohort 2 enrolls 27 patients with borderline-resectable or high-risk resectable pancreatic cancer, who will receive neoadjuvant therapy with the PAXG regimen.

Cohort 3 enrolls patients with pancreatic cancer who have undergone curative resection, who will receive adjuvant therapy with nab-paclitaxel (Ⅱ), capecitabine, and gemcitabine.

Objectives of Study: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nab-paclitaxel (Ⅱ)-based regimes for pancreatic cancer.

Participants with brain metastases are eligible only if brain lesions are stable on imaging performed ≥4 weeks prior to first study dose, no new neurological symptoms or baseline symptom relapse, and no systemic steroid administration for ≥14 days before study treatment initiation, with no evidence of new or enlarged metastatic lesions.
  • Medical history as follows: ① Major abdominal/thoracic surgery within 28 days prior to first study dose, or planned major surgery during the study period (diagnostic puncture and infusion port implantation excluded). ② Severe cardiovascular/cerebrovascular events (myocardial infarction, unstable angina, cerebrovascular accident) within 6 months prior to enrollment; clinically silent lacunar infarcts are permitted.
  • History of deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism within 3 months prior to enrollment.
  • Inability to swallow or untreated malabsorption syndrome.
  • Receipt of any investigational product within 1 month prior to enrollment.
  • Any other condition judged by the investigator to render the participant unsuitable for study participation.
