Experimental: Oxaliplatin PEDD-PRVI
Two infusions of oxaliplatin (dose escalation: 20-40 mg) over the course of 4 weeks by Pancreatic Retrograde Venous Infusion (PRVI) utilizing Pressure Enabled Drug Delivery (PEDD) technology.
|
Drug: FOLFIRI
During Cycles 1 and 2, standard of care systemic FOLFIRI will be delivered on Days 2-4 following oxaliplatin PEDD-PRVI. Drug: FOLFIRINOX During Cycles 3-6, standard of care systemic FOLFIRINOX will be administered on Days 1-3. Device: TriSalus Infusion System The TriSalus Infusion System administers therapeutics using PEDD technology. |
- Completion Rate of oxaliplatin PEDD-PRVI [ Time Frame: 3 months ]To determine the completion rate of oxaliplatin delivery by PEDD-PRVI as measured by the percentage of successful placements of the TriSalus Infusion System and delivery of the assigned dose of oxaliplatin regionally into the pancreas via RVI per each patient, at each dose-level, and across all enrolled patients in the study. Successful delivery of oxaliplatin by PEDD-PRVI will be confirmed using real-time fluoroscopic guidance. The success rate of completion of PEDD-RVI per patient and acroos all-patients will be calculated
- Safety of oxaliplatin PEDD-PRVI: maximum tolerable dose (MTD) [ Time Frame: 3 months ]To determine the safety of oxaliplatin PEDD-PRVI by identifying the maximum tolerable dose (MTD).
- To determine local progression free survival [ Time Frame: 3 months ]Assess the time frame of pancreatic tumor stability prior to progression by radiographic imaging
- To determine systemic progression free survival. [ Time Frame: 3 months ]Assess the time frame of metastatic tumor stability prior to progression by radiographic imaging
- To determine overall survival [ Time Frame: 3 months ]As a measure of activity, overall survival will be assessed. The events for the assessment of overall survival are death events.
- Radiographic response rates by PET [ Time Frame: 3 months ]Changes in tumor metabolic activity
- Radiographic response rate by perfusion MRI [ Time Frame: 3 months ]Changes in tumor size
- Serologic response rates (CA 19-9) [ Time Frame: 3 months ]Serial measurement of serum CA 19-9 levels
