Trial overview
Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Phase II Study of the MEK inhibitor GSK1120212 plus Gemcitabine vs Placebo plus Gemcitabine in Subjects with Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer
Trial description: GSK1120212 is a potent and highly selective inhibitor of MEK phosphorylation and kinase activity and has demonstrated potent anti-proliferative activity against human pancreatic cancer cell lines. This study is a Phase II, randomized placebo-controlled trial of the MEK inhibitor GSK1120212 plus gemcitabine vs. placebo plus gemcitabine in subjects with metastatic pancreatic cancer. Eligible subjects will receive intravenous gemcitabine with oral GSK1120212 or placebo. Therapy will continue until treatment discontinuation criteria are met. The primary objective will be to compare the overall survival of subjects in the GSK1120212 plus gemcitabine arm vs. subjects in the placebo plus gemcitabine arm. Secondary objectives include comparison of progression free survival, overall response rate, and duration of response between the two arms. Exploratory research objectives include the evaluation of population pharmacokinetics as well as blood and tissue based biomarkers. Safety will also be monitored throughout dosing.Once the determined number of survival events has occurred, if subjects are eligible, they will have the option to enter MEK114375, an open-label, Phase Ib rollover study of GSK1120212 monotherapy or GSK1120212 in combination with other anti-cancer treatments.

No
- 18 years old or older
- Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of metastatic (Stage IV) adenocarcinoma of the pancreas with measurable or non-measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1
- Prior systemic therapy (i.e., chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormone therapy, , targeted therapy or any investigational anti-cancer drug) for metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
- (Prior treatment with 5-FU based or gemcitabine administered as a radiation sensitizer during and up to 4 weeks after radiation therapy is allowed. Prior systemic chemotherapy in the adjuvant setting is allowed ; however, prior therapy with gemcitabine is allowed only if tumor recurrence occurred at least 6 months after completing the last dose of gemcitabine)
