Pancreatic Cancer
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Pancreatic Cancer focused on measuring Resectable, Border-line, Pancreas
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: Adults, aged 18 years and older, with cytologically or histologically proven resectable or borderline resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma as per Australasian Gastro-Intestinal Trials Group (AGITG) consensus guidelines. Those in whom cytology is suspicious for pancreatic adenocarcinoma but not diagnostic may be allowed on study following discussion with the study chair (or their representative). ECOG 0-1 Adequate normal organ and marrow function as defined below: Haemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5 × 109 /L Platelet count ≥100× 109/L Serum bilirubin ≤1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN). [This will not apply to patients with confirmed Gilbert's syndrome (persistent or recurrent hyperbilirubinemia that is predominantly unconjugated in the absence of hemolysis or hepatic pathology), who will be allowed only in consultation with their physician.] AST (SGOT)/ALT (SGPT) ≤2.5 x institutional ULN unless; o There has been recent biliary drainage in the past 30 days, in which case it must be ≤5 x ULN Measured creatinine clearance (CL) >50 mL/min or Calculated creatinine CL >50 mL/min by the Cockcroft-Gault formula (Cockcroft and Gault 1976) or by 24-hour urine collection for determination of creatinine clearance: Males: Creatinine CL (mL/min) = Weight (kg) x (140 - Age) / 72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL) Females: Creatinine CL (mL/min) = Weight (kg) x (140 - Age) x 0.85 / 72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL) Study treatment both planned and able to start within 14 days of registration. Body weight >30 kg. Patient is willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits and examinations including follow up. Must have a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks. Tumor assessment by computed tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) must be performed within 28 days prior to first study treatment. Signed, written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: Locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Neuroendocrine pancreatic carcinoma. Prior treatment for pancreatic cancer including chemotherapy, checkpoint inhibitor or investigational treatments, the exception of a maximum of 1 cycle of neoadjuvant intent mFOLFIRINOX. Participation in another clinical study with an investigational product during the last 30 days. Concurrent enrolment in another clinical study, unless it is an observational (non-interventional) clinical study or enrolment occurs during the follow-up period. Any concurrent chemotherapy, IP, biologic, or hormonal therapy for cancer treatment. Concurrent use of hormonal therapy for non-cancer-related conditions (e.g., hormone replacement therapy) is acceptable. Major surgical procedure (as defined by the Investigator) within 28 days prior to the first dose of IP. History of allogenic organ transplantation. Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders (including inflammatory bowel disease [e.g., colitis or Crohn's disease], diverticulitis [with the exception of diverticulosis], systemic lupus erythematosus, Sarcoidosis syndrome, or Wegener syndrome [granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Graves' disease, rheumatoid arthritis, hypophysitis, uveitis, etc]). The following are exceptions to this criterion: Patients with vitiligo or alopecia. Patients with hypothyroidism (e.g., following Hashimoto syndrome) stable on hormone replacement. Any chronic skin condition that does not require systemic therapy. Patients without active disease in the last 5 years may be included but only after consultation with the study physician. Patients with coeliac disease controlled by diet alone. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness, including but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, active infection requiring systemic therapy within 14 days before the first dose of study drug, symptomatic congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, interstitial lung disease, serious chronic gastrointestinal conditions associated with diarrhea, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirement, substantially increase risk of incurring AEs or compromise the ability of the patient to give written informed consent. History of another primary malignancy except for: Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no known active disease ≥5 years before the first dose of IP and of low potential risk for recurrence. Adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna without evidence of disease. Adequately treated carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease. History of leptomeningeal carcinomatosis. History of active primary immunodeficiency. Active infection including: Positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (positive HIV 1/2 antibodies) Active tuberculosis infection (clinical evaluation that may include clinical history, physical examination and radiographic findings, or tuberculosis testing in line with local practice) Active hepatitis infection, positive hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody, hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen (HBsAg) or HBV core antibody (HBcAb or anti-HBc), at screening. Participants with a past or resolved HBV infection (defined as the presence of HBcAb or anti HBc and absence of HBsAg) are eligible. Participants positive for HCV antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction is negative for HCV RNA Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days before the first dose of durvalumab. The following are exceptions to this criterion: Intranasal, inhaled, topical steroids, or local steroid injections (e.g., intra articular injection). Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses not to exceed 10 mg/day of prednisone or its equivalent. Steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., CT scan premedication). For patients enrolling after receipt of 1 cycle of mFOLFIRINOX, steroids given pre and post chemotherapy as part of routine care. Receipt of live attenuated vaccine within 30 days prior to the first dose of IP. Note: Patients, if enrolled, should not receive live vaccine whilst receiving IP and up to 30 days after the last dose of IP. Female patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding or male or female patients of reproductive potential who are not willing to employ effective birth control from screening to 90 days after the last dose of durvalumab. Known allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs or any of the study drug excipients. Prior randomisation or treatment in a previous durvalumab clinical study regardless of treatment arm assignment. Judgment by the investigator that the patient is unsuitable to participate in the study and the patient is unlikely to comply with study procedures, restrictions and requirements.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Single arm study, mFOLFIRINOX and durvalumab, neoadjuvant resectable pancreatic cancer.
All patients enrolled to this study will receive mFOLFIRINOX, delivered Q2W for 6 cycles and durvalumab delivered Q4W for 3 cycles in the neoadjuvant setting for resectable or borderline resectable pancreatic cancer patients. Patients will then undergo restaging, discussion at MDM and surgical resection where appropriate. Following resection, patients will commence 6 cycles of adjuvant mFOLFIRINOX alone (or gemcitabine-based chemotherapy if deemed by investigator as more appropriate). Patients will be followed up on study for 12 months from surgery, or from completion of neoadjuvant
