Alternating chemotherapy for first-line metastatic pancreatic cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a monthly rotation of two chemotherapy combinations (NALIRIFOX and GnP) as the first treatment for metastatic pancreatic cancer. The goal is to see if alternating the drugs helps control the cancer while reducing side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 18 or older.
- You have been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (confirmed by biopsy) that has spread to other organs.
- You have at least one tumor that can be measured on a scan (per RECIST 1.1).
- Your liver, kidney, and blood counts are within acceptable ranges (lab results from the past 14 days).
- You have not had chemotherapy for metastatic pancreatic cancer before, and you are generally able to carry out daily activities (ECOG 0-1).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy drugs (NALIRIFOX) as a first treatment for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that hasn't spread. The goal is to see if it can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
This trial tests whether a combination of chemotherapy drugs (NALIRIFOX) is effective as a first treatment for pancreatic cancer that has spread. It also studies how gut bacteria affect the success of a second treatment with gemcitabine and paclitaxel. The goal is to find better ways to treat pancreatic cancer by personalizing therapy.
This trial compares two chemotherapy regimens — GnP (gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel) and mFOLFIRINOX — given in alternating cycles for people with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. The goal is to see if this alternating approach can shrink the tumor enough to allow surgery.
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy drugs (NALIRIFOX given through a vein plus paclitaxel given directly into the abdomen) for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread to the lining of the belly but not to other organs. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective.
This study compares two chemotherapy strategies for people with advanced pancreatic cancer who have not yet had treatment. The goal is to see if switching to a different chemotherapy combination (gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel) after initial treatment works better than staying on the original chemotherapy (modified FOLFIRINOX).
This Phase 2 study compares two chemotherapy combinations to treat metastatic pancreatic cancer that has progressed after gemcitabine (with or without Abraxane). It aims to see which combination works better and is tolerable for people with measurable disease.
