Brief summary

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of panitumumab-IRDye800 and to see how well it works in finding cancer in patients with pancreatic cancer who are undergoing surgery. Panitumumab-IRDye800 is a combination of the antibody drug panitumumab and IRDye800CW, an investigational dye that can be seen using a special camera. Panitumumab-IRDye800 may attach to tumor cells and make them more visible during surgery in patients with pancreatic cancer.

Detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the optimal dose of panitumumab-IRDye800 in identifying pancreatic cancer compared to surrounding normal tissue in the ex vivo setting as measured by tumor to background ratio. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the safety and tolerability of the panitumumab-IRDye800 as an imaging agent in subjects undergoing resection of pancreatic cancer. II. Determine whether metastatic lesions, positive lymph node, or residual disease can be detected by near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging with panitumumab-IRDye800 but not by white light. OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose-escalation study of panitumumab-IRDye800 followed by a phase II study. Patients receive a loading dose of panitumumab intravenously (IV) over 60 minutes, and after 15 minutes of observation, patients then receive panitumumab-IRDye800 IV over 60 minutes on day 0. Patients then undergo surgical resection 2-5 days after panitumumab-IRDye800 administration with imaging using the Novadaq SPY/LUNA, Novadaq IR9000 fluorescence imaging system with open field handheld fluorescence imaging camera, and/or pinpoint endoscopic fluorescence imaging camera, and SurgVision Explorer Air multi spectral fluorescence reflectance system. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 15 and 30 days.

Exclusion criteria

* Received an investigational drug within 30 days prior to first dose of panitumumab-IRDye800 * Myocardial infarction (MI); cerebrovascular accident (CVA); uncontrolled congestive heart failure (CHF); or unstable angina within 6 months prior to enrollment * History of infusion reactions to panitumumab or other monoclonal antibody therapies * Pregnant or breastfeeding * Evidence of corrected QT (QTc) prolongation on pretreatment electrocardiography (ECG) (greater than 440 ms in males or greater than 460 ms in females) * Lab values that in the opinion of the physician would prevent surgical resection * Patients receiving class IA (quinidine, procainamide) or class III (dofetilide, amiodarone, sotalol) antiarrhythmic agents
