study of sotorasib combined with chemotherapy for second line treatment of pancreas cancer

Conditions: Pancreatic Cancer; Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer; Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer; KRAS P.G12C

Summary: this is a multicenter, non-randomized, open-label, phase ib/ii study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of sotorasib in combination with chemotherapy for patients with advanced kras p.g12c mutant pancreatic cancer with progression of disease after first line treatment. there will be a safety lead in to determine the safety and tolerability of the sotorasib in combination with standard chemotherapy. a simon two-stage design will be employed to evaluate the efficacy of sotorasib in combination with standard of care second line chemotherapy.

b) on stable doses of dexamethasone, if applicable; and c) follow-up magnetic resonance imaging (mri) performed within 28 days shows no new lesions appearing. * active infection requiring antibiotics within 1 week of enrollment. * cardiac dysfunction: * myocardial infarction within 6 months of enrollment * nyha \> class ii chf * unstable angina * arrhythmia requiring medication * qtc \> 470msec. * has a known history of hepatitis b or c. note: patients with a past or resolved hbv infection (defined as the presence of hepatitis b core antibody \[anti-hbc\] and absence of hbsag) are eligible. patients positive for hepatitis c (hcv) antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction is negative for hcv rna. note: no testing for hepatitis b and hepatitis c is required unless mandated by local health authority. * has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) infection. note: subjects with hiv/aids with adequate antiviral therapy to control viral load would be allowed if they are stable and have been on treatment for ≥ 4 weeks prior to first dose of study drug(s). subjects with viral hepatitis with controlled viral load would be allowed while on suppressive antiviral therapy. testing not required.no testing for hiv is required unless mandated by local health authority. * patients with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen, per treating physician discretion, are not eligible for this trial. * history or presence of hematological malignancies unless curatively treated with no evidence of disease ≥ 2 years. * surgery within 28 days of enrollment. * known dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency. * use of known cyp3a4 and p-gp sensitive substrates (with a narrow therapeutic window), within 14 days or 5 half-lives of the drug or its major active metabolite, whichever is longer, prior to study day 1 that was not reviewed and approved by the principal investigator. * use of strong inducers of cyp3a4 (including herbal supplements such as st. john's wort) within 14 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to study day 1 that was not reviewed and approved by the principal investigator. * female subjects who are breastfeeding or who plan to breastfeed while on study and through the timeframe as described in protocol (note: breast milk cannot be stored for future use while the mother is being treated on study). male participants who plan to donate sperm while on study and through the timeframe as described in protocol. * use of warfarin. note: use of low molecular weight heparin (lmwh) are permitted. * acid reducing agents including proton pump inhibitors (ppis) and h2 receptor antagonists. alternative agents to acid reducing agents are permitted. if an acid-reducing agent cannot be avoided, administer sotorasib 4 hours before or 10 hours after acid-reducing agent use.
