NCT03207724

Brief Summary

This study is being conducted to examine the safety of the investigational drug, Xilonix(™), in addition to standard doses of Onivyde® (nanoliposomal irinotecan) and 5- fluorouracil (5FU)/folinic acid (leucovorin) for pancreatic cancer patients with cachexia. Cachexia is a syndrome that includes involuntary weight loss and physical deterioration that can contribute to poor outcomes of cancer treatment. In other studies, Xilonix has increased lean body mass in advanced cancer patients. This increase could lead to improved weight maintenance and quality of life.

  • Patients with CNS metastases
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
  • Patients with unresolved grade 3/4 adverse effects of prior therapy at time of enrollment
  • Subjects with history of hypersensitivity to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to Xilonix or Onivyde
  • Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding
