Minnelide Along With Abraxane Plus Gemcitabine in Patients With Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas
Sponsor:

Minneamrita Therapeutics LLC

Brief Summary:

A Phase 1b, Open-Label, Safety, Pharmacokinetic, and Pharmacodynamic Study of an Anti-super-enhancer Minnelide Once a Day on Days 1 to 5, Days 8 to 12 and Days 15 to 19 Along with Abraxane Plus Gemcitabine in Patients with Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas

Condition or disease

Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas

Intervention/treatment

Minnelide

Phase

Phase 1

Detailed Description:

Stressing the patient's pancreatic cancer by giving the anti-super-enhancer Minnelide to increase endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and improve the progression-free survival (PFS) when patients are treated with standard of care (SOC) nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)-paclitaxel (Abraxane) plus gemcitabine.

Study Type : Interventional
Estimated Enrollment : 36 participants
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: A Phase 1b, Open-Label, Safety, Pharmacokinetic, and Pharmacodynamic Study of an Anti-super-enhancer Minnelide Given Along With Abraxane Plus Gemcitabine in Patients With Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas
Actual Study Start Date : November 1, 2022
Estimated Primary Completion Date : June 2024
Estimated Study Completion Date : December 2024
Arm Intervention/treatment

Experimental: Open Label Study of Minnelide in Patients with Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas

This is an open-label, Phase 1b study of MinnelideTM given once a day on Days 1 to 5, Days 8 to12 and Days 15 to 19 in combination with SOC (nab-paclitaxel [Abraxane] plus gemcitabine). The study will be conducted in patients with disease progression while on FOLFIRINOX as first treatment and who have had no prior treatment with nab-paclitaxel (Abraxane) plus gemcitabine or single agent nab paclitaxel or gemcitabine or in any other combinations. The total number of treatment cycles administered will be dependent on drug tolerability by patient.

Combination Product: Minnelide

Ages Eligible for Study: 19 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study: All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: No
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
  • • Signed, written IRB-approved informed consent.

          • International normalised ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 × institutional ULN. Note: Abnormal lab values will be retested once within 2 weeks.
          • For men and women of childbearing potential, the use of effective contraceptive methods during the study. From last dose effective contraception is to be maintained as follows
            • Men: 100 days from last dose of MinnelideTM.
            • Women of childbearing potential: 6 months from last dose of MinnelideTM.
            • For females, agree to the use of two physician-approved contraceptive methods (oral, injectable, or implantable hormonal contraceptive; tubal ligation; intra-uterine device; barrier contraceptive with spermicide; or vasectomised partner) while on study IP, and for 3 months following the last dose of IP.
