Chemotherapy + Anakinra in Patients With Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) (NCT04926467)
An Open Label, Phase II Study of Chemotherapy + Anakinra in Patients With Resectable, Locally Advanced or Potentially Resectable Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma (PDAC)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Based on a central role of inflammation in pancreas cancer, the role of IL 1 in acute and chronic inflammation , the inhibitory effect of IL 1 alfa and beta by anakinra and preliminary experience with anakinra in combination with chemotherapy in metastasis (with FOLFIRINOX) and localized disease (with gemcitabine/abraxane/cisplatin), a phase 2 study with anakinra in combination with perioperative chemotherapy for patients with PDAC is being proposed.
