iExosomes in Treating Participants With Metastatic Pancreas Cancer With KrasG12D Mutation

What this study is about

This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of mesenchymal stromal cells-derived exosomes with KrasG12D siRNA (iExosomes) in treating participants with pancreatic cancer with KrasG12D mutation that has spread to other places in the body. iExosomes may work better at treating pancreatic cancer.

This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of mesenchymal stromal cells-derived exosomes with KrasG12D siRNA (iExosomes) in treating participants with pancreatic cancer with KrasG12D mutation that has spread to other places in the body. iExosomes may work better at treating pancreatic cancer.

Who can participate

This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients with histologically confirmed metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma harboring KrasG12D mutation
  • Patients must have documented progression or stable disease on one or more lines of systemic therapy. If stable disease, patient must have completed at least 4 months of chemotherapy with cytotoxic therapy
  • KrasG12D mutation status will be informed from any previous routine molecular profiling (using commercial assays such as Foundation One, Caris, Oncomine or other) of tissue or blood. Additional KrasG12D mutation status may be confirmed using tissue biopsy or blood prior to enrolling into the trial
  • ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) performance status of 0-1
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) more or equal to 1,500 cells/mm3
  • Platelets more or equal to 100,000/ul
  • Hemoglobin more than 9.0 g/dL
  • Total bilirubin between 1 and 1.5 mg/dL
  • AST (aspartate aminotransferase) and ALT (alanine transaminase) less than 2.5 x ULN (upper limit of normal)
  • Alkaline phosphatase less than 2.5 x ULN
  • Creatinine less than 1.5 gm/dL
  • In patients with known Gilbert's syndrome, direct bilirubin less or equal to 1.5 x ULN will be used as organ function criteria, instead of total bilirubin
  • Negative serum pregnancy test in women with childbearing potential (WOCBP) defined as not post-menopausal for 12 months or no previous surgical sterilization, within one week prior to initiation of treatment. WOCBP must be using an adequate method of contraception to avoid pregnancy throughout the study and for up to 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug to minimize the risk of pregnancy. WOCBP must be using an adequate method of contraception to avoid pregnancy throughout the study and for up to 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug to minimize the risk of pregnancy
  • A male subject of fathering potential must use an adequate method of contraception to avoid conception throughout the study and for up to 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug to minimize the risk of pregnancy. If the partner is pregnant or breastfeeding, the subject must use a condom
  • Patients must sign an informed consent and authorization indicating that they are aware of the investigational nature of this study and the known risks involved

Exclusion criteria

  • Concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions which could compromise participation in the study such as unstable angina, myocardial infarction within 6 months, unstable symptomatic arrhythmia, uncontrolled diabetes, serious active or uncontrolled infection
  • Pregnancy (positive pregnancy test) or lactation
  • Known CNS (central nervous system) disease, except for treated brain metastasis. Treated brain metastases are defined as having no evidence of progression or hemorrhage after treatment and no ongoing requirement for dexamethasone, as ascertained by clinical examination and brain imaging (magnetic resonance imaging-MRI or computerized tomography-CT) during the screening period. Anticonvulsants (stable dose) are allowed. Treatment for brain metastases may include whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT), radiosurgery (RS; gamma knife, linear accelerator \[LINAC\], or equivalent) or a combination as deemed appropriate by the treating physician. Patients with CNS metastases treated by neurosurgical resection or brain biopsy performed within 3 months prior to day 1 will be excluded

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
