Intervention/exposure

Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Demcizumab
Treatment: Drugs - Abraxane®
Treatment: Drugs - Gemcitabine

Experimental: Gemcitabine and demcizumab With or Without Abraxane® - Gemcitabine and demcizumab With or Without Abraxane®


Treatment: Drugs: Demcizumab
Up to 50 subjects will be enrolled at up to 8 centers in Australia, New Zealand, and Spain. Up to 28 days (4 weeks) prior to treatment you will undergo testing to determine your eligibility to take part in this study, and then if you are enrolled in the study you will receive intravenous (in the vein) infusions of the demcizumab administered once every 2 weeks, and gemcitabine and Abraxane® administered weekly for 3 weeks, out of every 4 weeks. After 9 weeks, you will undergo assessments to determine the status of your disease. If there is no evidence of progression of your disease or if your tumor is smaller, you will continue to receive one additional infusion of demcizumab, and you will continue to receive infusions of gemcitabine and Abraxane® once weekly for 3 consecutive weeks out of every 4 weeks until it has been shown that your cancer has progressed. You will undergo assessments every 8 weeks thereafter to determine the status of your disease.

Treatment: Drugs: Abraxane®
Abraxane® which will be administered by IV infusion at a dose of 125 mg/m2 over 30 minutes once a week for 3 weeks in a row, followed by a week of rest.

Treatment: Drugs: Gemcitabine
Gemcitabine will be administered intravenously over 30 minutes initially at a dose of 1000 mg/m2 once a week for 3 weeks in a row, followed by a week of rest. If you develop side effects during this time period, your physician may decide to hold or reduce the dose of gemcitabine.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria

1. Subjects must have histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer. In addition, subjects must have a tumor that is at least 1 cm in a single dimension and is radiographically apparent on Computed Topography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Prior chemotherapy or radiotherapy is not allowed.
2. Age >21 years
3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status <2 (see Appendix B)
4. Life expectancy of more than 3 months
5. Subjects must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:

* Leukocytes >3.5 x 109/L
* Absolute neutrophil count >1.25 x 109/L
* Hemoglobin >100 g/L
* Platelets >125 X 109/L
* Total bilirubin <2 X institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)
* Aspartate aminotransferase (AST/SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT/SGPT) <5 X institutional ULN
* Alkaline phosphatase <5 X institutional ULN
* International normalized ratio (INR) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) within institutional ULN
* Creatinine <1.5 X institutional ULN OR
* Calculated creatinine clearance >60 mL/min using the Cockcroft and Gault formula as follows:

Creatinine clearance (mL/min) = (140 - age) x ideal body weight [kg] 0.814 x serum creatinine [µmol/L] For women, multiply the value from the equation above by 0.85. Where age is in years, weight is in kg, and serum creatinine is in µmol/L
6. Women of childbearing potential must have had a prior hysterectomy or have a negative serum pregnancy test and be using adequate contraception prior to study entry and must agree to use adequate contraception from study entry through at least 6 months after discontinuation of study drug. Men must also agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and from study entry through at least 6 months after discontinuation of study drug. Should a woman enrolled in the study or a female partner of a man enrolled in the study become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study or within 6 months after discontinuation of study drug, the Investigator should be informed immediately.
