Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of atebimetinib in combination with modified GnP compared with SOC GnP alone.
Detailed description
This is a global, randomized, open-label, Phase 3 study designed to evaluate whether treatment with atebimetinib plus a modified schedule of gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel will improve overall survival compared with standard gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel when given as first-line treatment in patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Patients will be randomized to one of two arms: Arm A with atebimetinib + gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel (modified dosing schedule) or Arm B with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel.
Interventions
Once daily oral tablets
Standard of care regimen for intravenous infusions of gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel weekly for three weeks followed by one week without an infusion
Biweekly intravenous infusions of chemotherapy (gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel)

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Overall Survival | Up to approximately 2 years | The OS of participants with atebimetinib in combination with mGnP versus GnP |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Progression Free Survival (PFS) | Up to approximately 2 years | The PFS of participants with atebimetinib in combination with mGnP versus GnP |
| Overall Response Rate (ORR) | Up to approximately 2 years | The ORR of participants with atebimetinib in combination with mGnP versus GnP |
| Disease Control Rate (DCR) | Up to approximately 2 years | The DCR in participants with atebimetinib in combination with mGnP versus GnP |
| Incidence of Adverse Events (AEs) | Up to approximately 2 years | The safety and tolerability of atebimetinib in combination with mGnP versus GnP assessed by percentage of participants with AEs based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v6 |
| Quality of Life (QOL) with European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) | Up to approximately 2 years | EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-item cancer-specific instrument consisting of 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social), 9 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, nausea/vomiting, dyspnea, appetite loss, insomnia, constipation/diarrhea, and financial difficulties), and an overall scale for global health status. Change from baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30 global health status will be assessed, with higher scores reflecting better functioning. |
