Description
This is an open label, single arm phase 2 trial evaluating ZN-c3 combined with gemcitabine in second-line advanced pancreatic cancer. There are lab experiments that show that pancreatic cancer cells can respond to a combination of ZN-c3, an experimental drug, with gemcitabine.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved ZN-c3 as a treatment for any disease. The FDA has approved gemcitabine as a treatment option for advanced pancreatic cancer.
The research study procedures include screening for eligibility, study treatment including evaluations and follow up visits, radiological scans (Computerized Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, or Positron Emission Tomography), blood tests, electrocardiogram, and tumor biopsy.
It is expected that about 34 people will take part in this research study.
The Lustgarten Foundation for Pancreatic Research and Stand Up to Cancer are supporting this research study by providing funding to conduct the study. Zentalis is supplying the study drug, ZN-c3.
