Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Safety Objectives: · Assessment of the safety of biweekly infusions of EndoTAG™-1 and weekly infusions of gemcitabine via: · Incidence and percentage with patients EndoTAG™-1 and gemcitabine related AE · Laboratory abnormalities (hematology, coagulation parameters, clinical chemistry, urine analysis) · Dose reductions, pausing and/or discontinuations of EndoTAG™-1 and/or gemcitabine Efficacy Objectives: · Assessment of survival (progression free survival, 6-month survival rate, overall survival) · Tumor response evaluation after 14 applications of EndoTAG™-1 and 7 applications of gemcitabine, i.e. 1 week after last treatment and according to follow-up plan · Clinical Benefit Assessment via Quality of Life (QoL) Scale (EORTC-QoL-C30-Questionnaire, PAN-26-module) · Assessment of clinical status via ECOG Scale;Secondary Objective: none ;Primary end point(s): Efficacy Endpoints · Median progression free survival (PFS) · 6-month-survival-rate calculated by the rate of patients alive 6 months after start of treatment · Median overall survival (OS) · Tumor Response (CR / PR / SD / PD) after 14 applications of EndoTAG™-1 and 7 applications of gemcitabine (1 cycle) assessed by the following variables: CT/MRI scans, chest X-ray and CA19-9 level kinetics · Clinical Benefit via Assessment of Quality of Life (QoL): EORTC-QoL-C30-Questionnaire + PAN-26-module · Pain assessment (Visual analogue scale = VAS) · ECOG: Number of patients with improvement/ steady state/ deterioration at week 8 compared to baseline · CA 19-9: Number of subjects with increase/no change/decrease between baseline and end of treatment, number of subjects within the normal range at baseline and at end of treatment Safety endpoints · Adverse Events: Incidence and percentage of patients with treatment emergent AEs · Laboratory Values: Number of clinically significant abnormal laboratory values · Dose variations: Percentage of patients having dose reductions/ pausing or discontinuatio
