Brief summary

This is a single-centre, non-randomized, open label phase II trial to be conducted at the National Cancer Centre, Singapore (NCCS). Patients diagnosed with metastatic PDAC will be eligible to enrol. The investigators hypothesize the anticancer activity of low dose OXIRI (LD-OXIRI) regimen comprising of metronomic oxaliplatin (O) and metronomic capecitabine (xeloda; X) in combination with UGT1A1-directed dosing of irinotecan (IRI) to be a tolerable regimen in patients with advanced PDAC and will lead to a favourable response rate. Patients will be prospectively enrolled in two stages - In stage 1, patients will be recruited and evaluated for response and toxicity. In stage 2, more patients will be recruited for further evaluation of response and toxicity.

Detailed description

Eligible patients will be recruited from the National Cancer Centre, Singapore (NCCS). Patients will be referred for assessment by the primary physician to a study investigator for screening. Informed written consent for entry into the trial will be obtained from the patient by a delegated investigator. All patients eligible for study entry will receive the LD-OXIRI regimen at the National Cancer Centre, Singapore. All concomitant medication taken during the study must be recorded. If a drug is administered prophylactically, this must be noted. The patients will not receive any other investigational drugs while on this study. There will be a screening period of 28 days, a treatment period till disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, and a post-treatment follow up period of up to 24 months.

Interventions

DRUGLow Dose OXIRI (LD-OXIRI)

The LD-OXIRI regimen will be administered in the following sequence: * metronomic capecitabine (Xeloda; X) 650mg/m2 will administered twice a day on a daily a continuous basis; * intravenous metronomic oxaliplatin (O) 50 mg/m2 will be infused over 120 minutes on days 1 and 8 of a 21 day-cycle; followed by * intravenous irinotecan (I) will be infused over 90 minutes on days 1 and 8 of a 21 day-cycle. The dose of irinotecan will be based on the particular patient's UGT1A1\*6 and UGT1A1\*28 genotype status.

Intervention model description

43 patients will be enrolled in two stages - In stage 1, a total of 19 patients will be recruited and evaluated for response and toxicity. In stage 2, another 24 patients will be recruited for further evaluation of response and toxicity. Up to 7 patients will be recruited to account for any drop outs (i.e. up to total of 50 patients).
