Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients recruited to the study will receive the following:

Panitumumab 9mg/kg IV, Day 1 of each cycle
Cisplatin 25mg/m2 IV, Day 1 and 8
Gemcitabine 1000mg/m2 IV, Day 1 and 8

Treatment is ongoing until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, investigator discretion or patient request to cease.

Once off study treatment, patients will be followed-up 30 days after the last study drug administration, then every 12 weeks until disease progression (if patient had come off treatment for reasons other than progression) or commences new treatment.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 262253 0
Objective clinical benefit (combined rates of documented CR, PR and SD)
Timepoint [1] 262253 0
Objective clinical benefit (OCB) is the combined rate of confirmed complete response, partial response and stable disease as per RECIST v1.1 at 12 weeks.
Secondary outcome [1] 273400 0
Response rate by RECIST v1.1. criteria
Timepoint [1] 273400 0
A tumour responder is defined as any patient exhibiting a best study response of CR or PR (based on CT or MRI) as per RECIST v1.1. Scans taken every 6weeks from baseline
Secondary outcome [2] 273401 0
Time to treatment failure
Timepoint [2] 273401 0
Time to treatment failure is defined as the time from the date of study enrolment to the date of the first of the following events: early discontinuation of study therapy, progression of disease, or death due to any cause. Time to treatment failure will be censored at the date of the last follow-up visit for patients who did not discontinue early, who are still alive, and who have not progressed. Patients who did not receive any treatment will be censored on the day of enrolment.
Secondary outcome [3] 273402 0
Progression free survival
Timepoint [3] 273402 0
Time to documented disease progression is defined as the time from the date of study enrolment to the first date of documented disease progression, the occurrence of new disease or death. Patients who are still alive at the time of analysis and who have not had documented disease progression, will be censored at the date of the last clinical assessment, tumour assessment, or enrolment, whichever is the later. Patients who withdraw from treatment for reasons other than progression and who receive subsequent chemotherapy before progression will be considered to be censored at the time of commencement of subsequent therapy.
Secondary outcome [4] 273403 0
Overall survival
Timepoint [4] 273403 0
Overall survival time is defined as the time from the date of study enrolment to the date of death due to any cause. Overall survival time will be censored at the date of the last follow-up visit for patients who are still alive.
Secondary outcome [5] 273404 0
Duration of response
Timepoint [5] 273404 0
Among responders, the duration of response is measured from the date of first documentation of response until the first date of documented disease progression or death due to any cause. Duration of tumour response will be censored at the date of the last follow-up visit for responders who are still alive and have not progressed.
Secondary outcome [6] 273405 0
CA19.9 response
Timepoint [6] 273405 0
1.The definition of CA19.9 response to be used in this study is based on that proposed for CA125 in ovarian cancer.
2.To be evaluable for response by CA19.9 requires 2 pre-treatment samples > twice the upper limit of normal, and at least 2 further samples after the start of treatment.
3.A response to CA19-9 has occurred if after two elevated levels prior to therapy there is at least a 50% fall which is confirmed by a fourth sample.
4.The two pre-treatment samples must both be > twice the upper limit of normal and at least one week but not more than three months apart. At least one of the samples should be within 1 week of starting treatment.
5.The third sample must be < 50% of the second sample.
6.The confirmatory fourth sample must be > 42 days after sample 3 and < 110% of sample 3.
7.Any intervening samples between samples 2 and 3 and between samples 3 and 4 must be < 110% of the previous sample unless considered to be rising due to tumour lysis.
8.The date of response by CA 19-9 is the date of the first sample with a 50% fall (3rd sample).
9.Documentation of any proven or suspected interval biliary sepsis or stenting is required for correlation
Secondary outcome [7] 273406 0
Quality of life
Timepoint [7] 273406 0
The quality of life will be assessed using QLQ-C30 and QLQ-Pan26. The EORTC QLQ-Pan26 is a self-administered cancer specific questionnaire with multi-dimensional scales. Questionaires will be completed up to 7 days before commencement of treatment, before the commencement of each cycle, after the last cycle and 6 weekly until disease progression.

6.WHO performance status 0, 1 or 2;
7.Estimated life expectancy of at least 12 weeks;
8.Patient compliance and geographic proximity that allows adequate follow-up;
9.Adequate organ function including the following:
a.Adequate bone marrow reserve: absolute neutrophil count (ANC) of greater than or equal to 1.5 x109/L, platelet count of greater than or equal to 100 x109/L, and haemoglobin of greater than or equal to 9 g/dL.
b.Hepatic: AST and ALT less than 5 x upper limit of normal (ULN); bilirubin less than 2 x ULN; in patients with obstructive jaundice and bilirubin greater than or equal 2 x ULN, internal or external biliary drainage should be performed before enrollment. Patients should be enrolled only if bilirubin declines to greater than or equal 2 x ULN.
c.Renal: creatinine less than 1. 5 x ULN and calculated creatinine clearance greater than or equal to 50 mL/min, calculated according to the Cockcroft formula.
