Novel Kras-directed therapy in combination with chemotherapy for locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

270 Background: K-Ras mutation G12D is most prevalent in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC). siRNA against the K-RasG12D(siG12D) mutant had showed significant preclinical anti-tumor effects. siG12D LODER - is a miniature biodegradable polymeric matrix that encompasses anti K-RasG12D siRNA drug, designed to release the drug regionally along 4 months. The siG12D LODER is placed with Endoscopic US biopsy. Methods: Open label phase I study of patients with locally advanced non-operable PDAC in the first-line setting. Patients were assigned to receive siG12D LODERs in a dose escalation, dose cohorts were: 0.025mg, 0.75mg and 3.0mg. Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2IV was given on a weekly basis, following the siG12D LODER insertion, until disease progression. The RP2D (recommended phase II dose) was further examined in highest dose cohort in combination with modified Folfirinox (Oxaliplatin 85mg/m2, Irinotecan 150mg/m2 followed by a Fluorouracil continuous IV infusion 2,400mg/m2 46 hours every 2 weeks). Follow up period wa...
