Brief summary

This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind clinical trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of Ivonescimab plus chemotherapy with or without AK117 versus placebo plus chemotherapy in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer. The study seeks to determine whether the addition of Ivonescimab and/or AK117 improves clinical outcomes compared to standard chemotherapy alone. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Ivonescimab with/without AK117 or placebo, both in combination with chemotherapy.

Interventions

DRUGIvonescimab, AK117, Albumin-bound Paclitaxel, Gemcitabine

Albumin-bound Paclitaxel: 125 mg/m2 weekly for 3 weeks followed by 1 week of rest. Gemcitabine: 1000 mg/m2 weekly for 3 weeks followed by 1 week of rest.

DRUGIvonescimab, AK117 Placebo, Albumin-bound Paclitaxel, Gemcitabine

Ivonescimab: a specified dose and frequency administrated by intravenous infusion (IV). AK117 Placebo: a specified dose and frequency administrated by intravenous infusion (IV). Albumin-bound Paclitaxel: 125 mg/m2 weekly for 3 weeks followed by 1 week of rest. Gemcitabine: 1000 mg/m2 weekly for 3 weeks followed by 1 week of rest.

DRUGIvonescimab Placebo, AK117 Placebo, Albumin-bound Paclitaxel, Gemcitabine

Ivonescimab Placebo : a specified dose and frequency administrated by intravenous infusion (IV). AK117 Placebo : a specified dose and frequency administrated by intravenous infusion (IV). Albumin-bound Paclitaxel: 125 mg/m2 weekly for 3 weeks followed by 1 week of rest. Gemcitabine: 1000 mg/m2 weekly for 3 weeks followed by 1 week of rest.
