An Open-label, Phase II Study of Intravenous Anetumab Ravtansine (BAY 94-9343), an Anti-mesothelin Antibody Drug Conjugate, in Pretreated Mesothelin-expressing Advanced Pancreatic Cancer
The primary objective of this study is to:
-Test the activity/response rate per RECIST 1.1 criteria of anetumab ravtansine in patients
with advanced pancreatic cancer who stain for mesothelin expression
The secondary objectives of this study are to:
- Time to Progression (TTP) defined as time from study treatment to RECIST 1.1
progression, or death (others going off study will be censored)
- Toxicity in pancreatic cancer patients (at 6.5 mg/kg dose)
-Test the activity/response rate per RECIST 1.1 criteria of anetumab ravtansine in patients
with advanced pancreatic cancer who stain for mesothelin expression
The secondary objectives of this study are to:
- Time to Progression (TTP) defined as time from study treatment to RECIST 1.1
progression, or death (others going off study will be censored)
- Toxicity in pancreatic cancer patients (at 6.5 mg/kg dose)
This is a non-randomized, open-label, multicenter, Phase II study to evaluate the efficacy
and safety of intravenous anetumab ravtansine (BAY 94-9343), an anti-mesothelin antibody drug
conjugate, in pretreated mesothelin-expressing advanced pancreatic cancer.
At the time of the start of study treatment, the patients will have pretreated advanced
pancreatic cancer that also overexpresses mesothelin as determined by immunohistochemistry
(IHC).
A maximum of 30 patients will be enrolled in a minimax, Simon 2-stage design with a single
early stopping rule for lack of efficacy. The target population is those patients with
pancreatic cancer who have failed an earlier treatment. All patients will be treated with an
anti-mesothelin immuno-conjugate, in this single arm, non-randomized trial and all patients
treated with at least one dose of Anetumab will be included. The endpoint is any response
using the RECIST 1.1 criteria.

Inclusion Criteria:
Eligibility criteria for prescreening
- Must have had at least one and not more than two prior chemotherapy regimens for
advanced disease (neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy would not be counted as a line
of therapy). If prior radiation, measurable lesion outside radiation portal.
- Written informed consent for prescreening.
- Unresectable locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer, confirmed by histology
- Availability of archival or fresh tissue for testing of mesothelin expression level.
Note: Archival tissue is preferred and fresh biopsy should only be obtained if no archival
tissue is available and if in the investigator's judgement, there is no additional risk for
the patient's safety. Patients with a sarcomatoid histology are not expected to have
mesothelin overexpression and should not enter prescreening.
- Age ≥ 18 years.
- Life expectancy of at least 3 months.
- No prior treatment with anetumab ravtansine (or any other mesothelin-based therapy)
Eligibility criteria for full study
- Written informed consent for full study.
- Histological documentation of overexpressing mesothelin at the moderate (2+) or
stronger (3+) level in at least 30% of tumor cells as determined by IHC.
- Unresectable locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer
- At least one but not more than two prior chemotherapy regimens with progression or
documented intolerance (neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy would not be counted as a
line of therapy).
- Patients must have at least 1 measurable lesion according to RECIST v 1.1
- ECOG PS of 0 or 1
- Life expectancy of at least 3 months.
- Adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function as assessed by the following laboratory
requirements conducted within 7 days before starting study treatment:
- Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN). Documented Gilbert syndrome
is allowed if total bilirubin is mildly elevated (< 6 mg/dL).
- ALT and AST ≤ 2.5 x ULN (≤ 5 x ULN for patients with liver involvement of their
cancer).
- ALP limit ≤ 2.5 x ULN (≤ 5 x ULN for patients with liver involvement of their cancer).
- Extent of baseline tumor burden will not interfere with causal assessment of
treatment-emergent hepatotoxicity, at the investigator's discretion.
- Amylase and lipase ≤ 1.5 x ULN.
- Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 according to the Modification of
Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) abbreviated formula (see Appendix 16.6).
- Adequate coagulation, as assessed by the following laboratory test results:
- International normalized ratio (INR) or prothrombin time (PT) ≤ 1.5 x ULN (CTCAE Grade
≤ 1).
- Partial thromboplastin time (PTT) or activated PTT (aPTT) ≤ 1.5 x ULN (CTCAE Grade ≤
1).
Note: Patients on stable dose of anti-coagulation therapy will be allowed to participate if
they have no sign of bleeding or clotting and INR / PT and PTT / aPTT test results are
compatible with the acceptable benefit-risk ratio at the investigator's discretion
- Platelet count ≥ 75,000/mm3 , without platelet transfusion within 3 weeks before the
start of study treatment.
- Hemoglobin (Hb) ≥ 8 g/dL, without blood transfusion or erythropoietin within 6 weeks
before the start of study treatment.
Note: Patients on stable dose of anti-coagulation therapy will be allowed to participate if
they have no sign of bleeding or clotting and INR / PT and PTT / aPTT test results are
compatible with the acceptable benefit-risk ratio at the investigator's discretion (see
Section 8.1).
