Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
Conditions
Brief summary
There will be two phases to this study. The lead-in phase will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of momelotinib (MMB) combined with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine (nab-P + G) in adults with previously untreated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The randomized treatment phase will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of nab-P + G with either MMB administered at the MTD or placebo in adults with previously untreated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Participants will continue study treatment until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, consent withdrawal, or participant's refusal of treatment. Following treatment, participants will be followed for safety for 30 days and for survival approximately every 3 months for up to 3 years.
Interventions

Placebo to match momelotinib tablets administered orally once or twice daily
Intravenously administered over approximately 30-40 minutes or as per institutional standard of care on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle

Recruitment details
Participants were enrolled at study sites in the United States (US). The first participant was screened on 02 June 2014. The last study visit occurred on 10 April 2017.
Pre-assignment details
38 participants were screened. Data submitted represent analysis performed on data collected in the lead-in phase by the Study Termination Date, 10 April 2017. The study was discontinued before initiation of the randomized treatment phase, therefore no data were collected for the randomized treatment phase.
