Brief summary: This trial is a prospective, single-arm, single-center, phase II clinical study, mainly targeting subjects with locally advanced pancreatic cancer, to explore the efficacy and safety of adebrelimab combined with irinotecan liposome (II), oxaliplatin, and 5-FU/LV conversion in the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer.

Detailed description: Subjects enter the screening period after being fully informed and signing an informed consent form. The screening period for the study is 28 days.

After completing the screening inspection and evaluation, patients will receive adebrelimab once and irinotecan liposomal (II), oxaliplatin, 5-FU/LV twice per cycle (4 weeks), and imaging of tumor lesions will be performed every 2 cycles (8 weeks ± 7 days) to evaluate whether patients can undergo surgery until surgical resection, disease progression, or intolerable toxicity, start of new anticancer drug therapy, withdrawal from the study, death, or loss to follow-up.

After 6 cycles of treatment, patients who are assessed to have no progression but are still unable to undergo radical surgical resection will receive maintenance treatment regimen (using capecitabine or teggio plus adebrelimab), and imaging efficacy will be evaluated every 12 weeks (± 7 days) during maintenance treatment. Surgical resectability will still be evaluated during maintenance treatment until disease progression or intolerable toxicity, start of new anticancer drug treatment, withdrawal from the study, death, or loss to follow-up.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

-

Patients must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be enrolled in this trial:

1. Sign written informed consent before implementing any trial-related procedures;
2. Age ≥ 18 years old and ≤ 70 years old, regardless of gender;
3. Locally advanced pancreatic cancer confirmed by histopathological/cytopathological examination;

   2. Pancreatic head/uncinate process: the tumor contacts the superior mesenteric artery \> 180 ˚;
   3. Body and tail of pancreas: the tumor contacts the superior mesenteric artery or trunk celiac artery \> 180 ˚; The tumor contacted the celiac trunk artery and infiltrated the abdominal aorta;
   4. The tumor invaded the jejunal branch of the superior mesenteric artery. The portal vein-superior mesenteric vein cannot be safely reconstructed due to tumor invasion, venous occlusion or involvement of a large area of the jejunal branch of the superior mesenteric vein;
5. According to the efficacy evaluation criteria of solid tumors (RECIST version 1.1) with at least one radiographically measurable lesion;
6. ECOG score 0-1;
7. If the biliary obstruction needs to be lifted, the expected survival time is \> 3 months;
8. Sufficient organ function, subjects must meet the following laboratory indicators:

   1. Absolute neutrophil value (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 109/L in the absence of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor in the past 14 days;
   2. platelets ≥ 100 × 109/L in the absence of blood transfusion in the past 14 days;
   3. hemoglobin \> 9 g/dL in the absence of blood transfusion or use of erythropoietin in the past 14 days;
   4. total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN);

   7. Good coagulation function, defined as International Normalized Ratio (INR) or Prothrombin Time (PT) ≤ 1.5 times the ULN;
   8. euthyroidism, defined as thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) within the normal range. If the baseline TSH is outside the normal range, subjects with total T3 (or FT3) and FT4 within the normal range can also be enrolled;
9. For female subjects of childbearing age, a negative urine or serum pregnancy test should be performed within 3 days prior to the first dose of study drug (Cycle 1, Day 1). If the urine pregnancy test result cannot be confirmed as negative, a blood pregnancy test is ordered. Women of non-childbearing age are defined as at least 1 year after menopause, or have undergone surgical sterilization or hysterectomy;
10. If there is a risk of conception, all subjects (whether male or female) are required to use contraception with an annual failure rate of less than 1% throughout the entire treatment period until 120 days after the last dose of study drug (or 180 days after the last dose of chemotherapy drug).
