A Study of GnP RegimenCombined With Serplulimab and Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy as First-line Treatment for Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

Recruiting now · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Locally Advanced Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

In brief

This study is a single-arm phase II clinical trial. The study targets patients aged 18-75 years with ECOG performance status 0-2, diagnosed with locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma based on comprehensive assessment of pathology and imaging studies (CT or MRI). Participating patients will receive the GnP regimen every 21 days (nab-paclitaxel 125mg/m² ivgtt on days 1 and 8 + gemcitabine 1000mg/m² ivgtt on days 1 and 8, repeated every 21 days) combined with serplulimab (200mg ivgtt Q3W). In the second cycle, patients will receive SBRT targeting the primary tumor and/or retroperitoneal lymph nodes: 6.6Gy×5 fractions, 7Gy×5 fractions, or 8Gy×5 fractions, administered every other day with radiotherapy completed in 5 sessions (specific selection determined by investigators based on lesion size and organs at risk \[OAR\] assessment). Comprehensive evaluation including tumor markers and CT scans will be performed every 2 cycles with multidisciplinary team (MDT) review, and patients who meet surgical criteria will undergo radical resection surgery.

Inclusion Criteria (1)Histologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma with diagnosis based on comprehensive assessment of pathology and imaging studies (CT or MRI), supplemented by fibroblast activation protein positron emission tomography-computed tomography (FAPI PET-CT) when necessary, determined as locally advanced pancreatic cancer by multidisciplinary team assessment (per 2022 CSCO guideline definition) and deemed unresectable; (2)Treatment-naïve patients with no prior anticancer therapy (including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, radiofrequency ablation, irreversible electroporation, or other investigational treatments); (3)Age 18-75 years, inclusive, regardless of sex; (4)Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2; (5)Measurable primary tumor lesions: ≥10 mm in longest diameter on spiral CT, lymph nodes ≥15 mm in short axis diameter; for conventional CT or physical examination, maximum diameter must be ≥20 mm; (6)Adequate major organ function:
Bone marrow function (no blood transfusion within 14 days prior to screening): White blood cell count (WBC) ≥4.0×10⁹/L, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5×10⁹/L, platelet count (PLT) ≥80×10⁹/L, hemoglobin (Hb) ≥90 g/L;
Hepatic function: Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤3× upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤2×ULN (for subjects with hepatic metastases: ALT and AST ≤5×ULN, TBIL ≤2×ULN), Child-Pugh score ≤7;
Renal function: Serum creatinine (Cr) ≤1.5×ULN, proteinuria ≤2+ or ≤2 g/24h, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m²;
Coagulation function: Prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), and international normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.5×ULN. Patients receiving stable anticoagulation therapy for at least 30 days prior to study drug treatment may have PT or INR >1.5×ULN if deemed appropriate for the study by investigator assessment, provided adequate justification is documented;
Serum sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium levels ≤Grade 1 per National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 5.0;
Electrocardiogram showing corrected QT interval (QTc) ≤480 ms; (7)No history of autoimmune disease or current autoimmune disease; (8)Life expectancy ≥3 months; (9)Signed written informed consent prior to any study-related procedures, with ability to understand the protocol and comply with study requirements.

You may not qualify if…

Known hypersensitivity or allergy to any of the study drugs;
Patients with distant metastatic disease classified as Stage IV pancreatic cancer;
Patients whose tumor lesions are determined by the surgical team or multidisciplinary team to be resectable or borderline resectable pancreatic cancer based on imaging studies (CT or MRI) (per 2022 CSCO guideline definition);
Patients whose lesions are deemed unsuitable for stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) by investigator assessment;
Known or suspected central nervous system (CNS) metastases, defined as subjects with signs or symptoms suggestive of CNS metastases, unless CNS metastases have been excluded by CT or MRI;
History of other malignancies within 5 years (except adequately treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin and cervical carcinoma in situ);
