NCT ID:
NCT03481920
Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacodynamics, safety and efficacy of PEGPH20 in combination with Avelumab in adult patients with chemotherapy resistant advanced or locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). This is a multi-center, open-label, non-randomized trial.
Detailed Description:
The reported response rate with check-point inhibitors in PDAC is 0 %. This study tests the hypothesis that elimination of HA in pancreas tumor microenvironment mediated by PEG PH20 will result in increased tumor vascularization and vessel patency as well as stromal remodeling with increase immune infiltrate. These effects may facilitate the activity of check-point inhibitors like avelumab by at least two mechanisms including increase in drug delivery and increasing immune infiltrate.
