Phase 1 Study of Preoperative Gemcitabine Plus CP-870,893 Followed by Addition of CP-870,893 to Standard -Of-care Adjuvant Chemoradiation for Patient With Newly Diagnosed Resectable Pancreatic Carcinoma


This is an open-label single-arm,phase 1, trial. Ten patients with newly diagnosed
resectable pancreatic carcinoma will receive gemcitabine and CP-870,893 two weeks prior to
surgical resection and subsequently during standard-of-care adjuvant chemoradiation therapy
(at which time CP-870,893 will be given on day 3 of each of three 28-day cycles of
gemcitabine). Previously established doses of each agent will be used and each given by IV
infusion.
