Sintilimab Plus Modified FOLFIRINOX in Metastatic or Recurrent Pancreatic Cancer: The Randomized Phase II CISPD3 Trial

Background Folinic acid, fluorouracil, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX) or modified FOLFIRINOX (mFFX) is the first-line standard of care for metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma; effective and safe treatment strategies are needed as survival remains poor. Sintilimab, a human immunoglobulin G4 monoclonal antibody for programmed cell death-1, has shown efficacy in various cancers. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of sintilimab with mFFX for metastatic/recurrent pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma in China. Patients and Methods This was a single-center, randomized, controlled, open-label phase II study. Patients were assigned 1:1 to sintilimab + mFFX or mFFX (n = 55, each). Results In the intention-to-treat population, median overall survivals (primary endpoint) were similar in the sintilimab + mFFX and mFFX groups: 10.9 and 10.8 months, respectively [hazard ratio (HR) 1.07, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.69–1.68]. The objective response rate was higher [50.0% (95% CI 34.6–65.4%) versus 23.9% (95% CI 11.1–36.7%)] in the sintilimab + mFFX group (P < 0.05). Median (HR, 95% CI) progression-free survival and disease control rates (95% CI) were also similar at 5.9 and 5.7 months (0.93, 0.62–1.40), and 84.1% (72.8–95.3%) and 71.7%, (58.2–85.3%), respectively. Incidences of grade ≥ 3 treatment-emergent adverse events were 84.9% (45/53) and 74.1% (40/54), and that of grade ≥ 3 immune-related adverse events were 5.7% (3/53) and 0 in each group, respectively. Conclusions The study did not meet its primary endpoint, no clear survival benefit was observed, and the benefit of sintilimab + mFFX for advanced pancreatic cancer was not supported; however, the findings suggest that using this regimen for pancreatic cancer is feasible, has an acceptable safety profile, and leads to an objective response rate of 50%.
