Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression-Free Survival
Time from randomization to disease progression or death from any cause, assessed per RECIST v1.1 and evaluated every 6 weeks during treatment and follow-up.
From randomization to disease progression or death, with follow-up for up to 2 years after treatment initiation.
Study Arms (1)
Single-Arm
EXPERIMENTALPatients receive Rimegepant combined with AG chemotherapy as first-line treatment for metastatic pancreatic cancer, with assessment of efficacy and safety outcomes.
Interventions
Rimegepant 75 mg every other day. Nab-paclitaxel 125 mg/m² and Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m² intravenously on Days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- The patient has good compliance, understands the study procedures, and has signed a written informed consent form.
- Age ≥ 18 years.
- Pathologically or cytologically confirmed pancreatic cancer, with imaging or pathological findings indicating unresectable pancreatic cancer with distant metastasis.
- Patients who have not received any prior treatment for pancreatic cancer (including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or experimental therapy), except for surgical resection.
- If the patient has received neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy, the regimen must not contain AG, and the interval from the last administration to the diagnosis of recurrence must be \>6 months, with no delayed toxicities.
- The patient has at least one measurable lesion according to the RECIST 1.1 criteria.
- ECOG performance status 0-1.
- Expected survival \>3 months.
- Adequate organ function, defined as meeting the following criteria (blood tests to be completed within 14 days prior to enrollment):
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5 × 10⁹/L
- Hemoglobin ≥90 g/dL
- Platelet count (PLT) ≥100 × 10⁹/L
- Total bilirubin \<1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Liver transaminases (AST \& ALT) \<2.5 × ULN; for patients with liver metastases, AST/ALT ≤5 × ULN
- Serum creatinine ≤1 × ULN, or creatinine clearance ≥50 mL/min if serum creatinine \>1 × ULN
- +3 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with a history of other malignancies within the past 5 years, except for cured in situ carcinoma or basal cell carcinoma of the skin.
- Patients diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis or interstitial pneumonia within 28 days prior to enrollment.
- Patients with refractory pleural effusion or ascites.
- Patients with known brain or meningeal metastases.
- Patients who used strong CYP3A4 inducers within 3 weeks prior to the first study drug administration, or strong CYP3A4/UGT1A1 inhibitors within 3 weeks prior to the first study drug administration.
- Patients who underwent major organ surgery (excluding needle biopsy, central venous catheter insertion, port catheterization, biliary obstruction stenting, percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage, and cholecystostomy) within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug, or who plan to undergo elective surgery.
- Patients with known dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency or low activity.
- Patients with active infection, including HIV infection, or chronic HBV/HCV in the active phase (HBV DNA ≥10⁴ copies/mL or ≥2000 IU/mL; patients must receive antiviral therapy first, and can only be enrolled when HBV DNA \<10⁴ copies/mL or \<2000 IU/mL, with continued antiviral therapy and monitoring of liver function and HBV viral load).
- Patients with severe comorbidities, including poorly controlled diabetes despite anti-diabetic medication, clinically significant active heart disease, renal failure, liver failure, uncontrolled epilepsy, history of central nervous system disease or mental disorder, hemorrhagic peptic ulcer, ileus, or intestinal obstruction.
- Patients with severe diarrhea (grade ≥2 per NCI-CTCAE v5.0: ≥4 bowel movements per day vs baseline; moderate/severe increase in stoma output; limitation of activities of daily living).
- Patients with severe psychiatric disorders.
- Patients with grade ≥II peripheral neuropathy at present or in the past.
- Patients with known hypersensitivity to benzodiazepines, AG chemotherapy agents, or related components.
- Patients who participated in other clinical trials within 4 weeks prior to enrollment.
- Patients deemed unsuitable for the trial by the investigator.
