Brief summary

This is a randomized phase II trial comparing the first-line treatment with nab-paclitaxel plus S-1(AS) and nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine(AG) in advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) with primary tumor nonexcision in Chinese patients.

Detailed description

Advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive and chemo-resistant disease with extremely low 5-year survival rate. Gemcitabine has been the cornerstone of metastatic PDAC treatment for more than a decade , although survival benefit was very poor. Nab-paclitaxel added to gemcitabine has showed improving survival and overall response rate vs gemcitabine alone in metastatic PDAC first-line treatment in the MPACT phaseIII study, which represents one of the standards of care in advanced PDAC therapy. S-1 is an oral 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) prodrug, and shown to be non-inferior to gemcitabine on OS for unresectable pancreatic cancer. Meanwhile, adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 monotherapy was found to significant prolong survival of pancreatic cancer patients when compared with gemcitabine. This study is to explore the efficacy and safety of nab-paclitaxel plus S-1(AS) and nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine(AG) as first-line treatment in advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) with primary tumor nonexcision in Chinese patients.

Interventions

DRUGS1

S-1 is orally administered (BSA\<1.25m2, 40mg bid, 1.25m2≤BSA≤1.5m2, 50mg bid, BSA\>1.5m2, 60mg bid) on day 1-7 of each 14 day cycle.

DRUGGemcitabine

Gemcitabine is given at 1000mg/m2 intravenously on d1 and 8 of each 21 day cycle.

Nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel is given at 125 mg/m2 intravenously on day 1 of each 14 day cycle or day 1 and 8 of 21 day cycle.
