Pegcetacoplan in Combination With Modified FOLFIRINOX for the Treatment of Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (NCT07214298)
A Phase I/II Study of Complement Inhibition in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This phase I/II trial tests the effect of pegcetacoplan in combination with oxaliplatin, irinotecan, leucovorin, and fluorouracil (mFOLFIRINOX) in treating patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Pegcetacoplan works by targeting the immune complement process, a part of the immune system that defends against bacteria and may limit tumor progression and improve the immune system's response against tumor cells. Oxaliplatin is in a class of medications called platinum-containing antineoplastic agents. It damages the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill tumor cells. Irinotecan is in a class of antineoplastic medications called topoisomerase I inhibitors. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill tumor cells. Leucovorin is a drug used to lessen the toxic effects of substances that block the action of folic acid. Leucovorin is a form of folic acid. It is a type of chemoprotective agent and a type of chemosensitizing agent. Fluorouracil stops cells from making DNA and it may kill tumor cells. It is a type of antimetabolite. Giving pegcetacoplan in combination with mFOLFIRINOX may be safe, tolerable, and/or effecting in treating patients with metastatic PDAC. This trial also evaluates the effect of pegcetacoplan on the incidence of major thrombotic events and the resulting complications. Thrombosis is a common complication in patients with PDAC. Thrombosis occurs when blood clots block veins or arteries. Complications of thrombosis, such as stroke or heart attack, can be life-threatening. Giving pegcetacoplan may help prevent blood clots from forming and decrease the risk of major thrombotic events.
