Phase II Study of Modified FOLFIRINOX in Advanced Pancreatic Cancer


Inclusion Criteria:



- Pathologic or cytologic documentation of pancreatic adenocarcinoma

- Metastatic or locally advanced unresectable disease, including borderline
unresectable disease

- Patients with biliary or gastroduodenal obstruction must have drainage or surgical
bypass prior to starting chemoradiation

metastatic or non-metastatic locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer

- 6 months since completion of any prior neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy (chemotherapy
or radiotherapy) for resected pancreatic cancer

- No prior treatment with oxaliplatin or irinotecan

- No prior treatment with fluoruouracil or capecitabine unless administered as a
radiosensitizing drug during adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy after/before
resection of pancreatic cancer

- Patients who received chemotherapy > 2 years ago for malignancies other than
pancreatic cancer are eligible, provided that chemotherapy was completed > 2 years
ago and there is no evidence of the second malignancy at the time of study entry

- > 4 weeks since major surgery

- No other medical condition or reason that, in the opinion of the investigator, would
preclude study participation

- Laboratory parameters as follows: absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1,500/uL, platelet
count ≥ 100,000/uL, hemoglobin ≥ 9 g,/dL, creatinine < 1.5 X ULN or estimated GFR >
30 ml/min, bilirubin < 1.5 X ULN, AST and ALT < 3 X ULN, negative pregnancy test in
