Pancreatic Cancer Resectable
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a prospective, single-arm trial. The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Nimotuzumab combined with nab-paclitaxel+ gemcitabine (AG regimen) for postoperative adjuvant treatment of pancreatic cancer with EGFR-positive.
Detailed description
This clinical study is designed as a prospective, open-label, single arm, phase II study to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Nimotuzumab combined with AG (nab-paclitaxel+ gemcitabine) as postoperative adjuvant therapy in patients with EGFR-positive pancreatic cancer. The main endpoint is disease-free survival (DFS). Additional end points included distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), overall survival (OS), tumor-related markers and safety.
Interventions
Nimotuzumab 400 mg on Day 1 and 15 of a 28-day cycle (6 cycles) ; Patients will receive Nimotuzumab 600 mg on days 1 and 8 of every 21-day cycle. Patients will receive six treatment cycles unless there is radiologic evidence of disease recurrence and unacceptable toxicity.
Patients will receive nab-paclitaxel 125 mg/m\^2 followed by gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m\^2 as one intravenous infusion over 30-40 minutes on days 1 and 8 of every 21-day cycle. Patients will receive six treatment cycles unless there is radiologic evidence of disease recurrence and unacceptable toxicity.
