AIRPanc Trial Summary

This trial seeks to combine radiation and drugs to boost the body's immune system to fight cancer cells.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who've completed 8 cycles of mFOLFIRINOX treatment, can undergo surgery and SBRT, have an ECOG status of 0 or 1, and proper organ function. Excluded are those with autoimmune diseases, uncontrolled hypercalcemia, active infections (HIV/HBV/HCV), significant liver disease, psychiatric/substance abuse issues that affect compliance, prior immune therapy use, or certain allergies.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if combining standard radiation (SBRT) with zimberelimab (an immunotherapy drug) alone or alongside quemliclustat and/or etrumadenant (drugs targeting tumor evasion pathways) before surgery is safe and boosts the immune response against tumors in patients with pancreatic cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include typical reactions to immunotherapies such as fatigue, skin reactions at injection sites; inflammation-related symptoms affecting lungs or other organs; possible digestive disturbances; allergic responses to medication components; and increased risk of infection.

Active Control
Group I: Arm D: SBRT, Zimberelimab with AB680 and Etrumadenant (AB928)Experimental Treatment5 Interventions
Prior to resection: SBRT 40 Gy over 5 fractions, 240 mg IV zimberelimab (AB122) every 2 weeks for 7 weeks (4 doses) prior to surgery in combination with quemliclustat IV at the RTD every 2 weeks for 7 weeks (4 doses) and etrumadenant (AB928) PO at the RTD daily for 7 weeks prior to surgery. After resection: mFOLFIRINOX (4 cycles)

Prior to resection: SBRT 40 Gy over 5 fractions, 240 mg IV zimberelimab (AB122) every 2 weeks for 7 weeks (4 doses) prior to surgery in combination with quemliclustat IV at the recommended therapeutic dose (RTD)every 2 weeks for 7 weeks (4 doses) prior to surgery. After resection: mFOLFIRINOX (4 cycles)
Group III: Arm A: Safety run-inExperimental Treatment5 Interventions
Prior to resection: SBRT 40 Gy over 5 fractions, zimberelimab (AB122) 240 mg intravenously (IV) every 2 weeks for 7 weeks (4 doses), quemliclustat (AB680) 100 mg IV every 2 weeks for 7 weeks (4 doses) and etrumadenant (AB928) 150 mg PO daily for 7 weeks. After resection: mFOLFIRINOX (4 cycles)
