TTFields and Chemotherapy in Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma (mPDAC)
Clinica Universidad de Navarra, Universidad de Navarra · Clínica Universidad de Navarra, Pamplona, Navarre
The purpose of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and tolerability of TTFields in combination with chemotherapy in adults with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma based on treatment-emergent adverse events of chemotherapy (modFOLFIRINOX) or device (TTFields). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is TTFields treatment safe for the patients in combination with modFOLFIRINOX? * Are participants compliant with the treatment? * Is Is TTFields treatment effective in combination with modFOLFIRINOX against metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma?
Eligibility: 18 Years to · All · All the patients should comply with the following criteria for inclusion: 1. Histological/cytological diagnosis of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. 2. The patient should be 18 years of age and older. 3. The patient has given consent to participate in the study. 4. The patient should be able to comply with all the requirements of the clinical trial. 5. Life expectancy of at least 3 months. 6. Metastatic disease with, at least, one hepatic lesion that must be accessible for biopsy. 7. Measurable disease as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor v1.1 (RECIST 1.1) apart from the liver lesion to be biopsied. 8. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1. 9. Amenable and assigned by the investigator to receive therapy with modFOLFIRINOX. 10.

Able to operate the Novo TTF-200T System independently or with the help of a caregiver. 12. Adequate hematologic and organ function, defined by the following laboratory test results, obtained during the screening period and before C1D1. 1. WBC higher than or equal to 2.5 x 10\^9/L. 2. ANC higher than or equal to 1.5 x 10\^9/L without granulocyte colony-stimulating factor support. 3. Platelet count higher than or equal to 100 x 10\^9/L without transfusion. 4.

Serum bilirubin lower than or equal to 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN); patients with known Gilbert´s disease may have a bilirubin value lower than or equal to 3 x ULN. 7. INR and aPTT lower than or equal to 1.5 x ULN. 8. AST, ALT, lower than or equal to 5 x ULN. 9. Serum creatinine lower than or equal to 1.5 x ULN or Creatinine Clearance higher than or equal to 30ml/min (calculated using Cockcroft-Gault formula). 13. For women of childbearing potential: Negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days prior to C1D1. Agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use of contraceptive methods that result in a failure rate of lower than or equal to 1 percentage per year during the treatment period (combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal o transdermal); progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable o implantable); intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS); bilateral tubal occlusion or vasectomized partner) and for at least 180 days after the last study treatment. A woman is considered to be of childbearing potential if she is post-menarcheal, has not reached a postmenopausal state (higher than or equal to 12 continuous months of amenorrhea with no identified cause other than menopause), and has not undergone surgical sterilization (removal of ovaries and/or uterus).
