A Phase I/Ib, Single-Arm, Open-Label, Multi-Center Trial Using ARQ-761 (Beta-Lapachone) Treatment With Gemcitabine/Nab-Paclitaxel Chemotherapy In Metastatic, Unresectable, Or Recurrent Pancreatic Cancer
This is a study of ARQ-761 (beta-lapachone) with gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy in
subjects with advanced (metastatic, unresectable, or recurrent) pancreatic cancer that has
not been treated with gemcitabine.
subjects with advanced (metastatic, unresectable, or recurrent) pancreatic cancer that has
not been treated with gemcitabine.
Screening:
- Demographic information (age, gender, race, ethnic origin).
- Physical exam and review of your past and present medical history including any
surgeries a and/or infections;
- Vital signs (temperature, pulse, respirations, blood pressure); height, weight;
- Concurrent medications (medications whether prescribed or over-the counter that you have
taken or are currently taking);
- Performance Status (how well you are able to perform daily activities)
- Review of any side effects that you may have experienced or may be experiencing before
receiving the study drug and medications
- Blood will be collected for routine lab tests
- Urinalysis
- Pregnancy Test (if you are a woman of child-bearing potential)
- Radiologic evaluation (review of any CT scans you may have had)
- Tumor measurements:
- A CT scan (chest/abdomen/pelvis) is a special test that produces an image of your body
using a. small amount of radiation. The image shows the body tissues and structures in
three dimensions (3-D).
- Electrocardiogram (EKG), a tracing of the electrical activity of the heart;
- Oxygen saturation (measures how much oxygen the blood is carrying)
- Biopsy for correlative studies - if archived tumor specimen cannot be obtained, you will
need to undergo a fresh biopsy
- Completion of a Quality of life questionnaire
This visit may last approximately 1-2 hours. Visits that included radiologic evaluation may
last longer, approximately 2-3 hours.
The treatment consists of:
- A 2 week lead-in monotherapy of ARQ-761 - they will receive the current dose of ARQ761
alone
o The amount of ARQ-761 that will be given to you will depend on the time at which you
are enrolled in the study.
- Afterwards the 28-day cycle of combination treatment of ARQ-761 along with gemcitabine
(1000 mg/m2) + nab-paclitaxel (125 mg/m2) will begin
