Brief Summary: This is a single-institution, single-arm phase II trial of Durvalumab combined with Radiation Therapy (RT) for metastatic pancreatic cancer patients who have progressed through first-line chemotherapy.
Detailed Description: This is a single-institution phase II trial of Durvalumab combined with Radiation Therapy (RT) for metastatic pancreatic cancer patients who have progressed through first-line chemotherapy. Pancreatic cancer patients who have received second-line or greater chemotherapy in the metastatic setting are not eligible. Target accrual is 39 patients. Durvalumab 1500 mg (or 20 mg/m2 if \<30 kg) IV every 4 weeks will be started and continued during RT and afterwards until the patient experiences either unacceptable toxicity or disease progression, whichever comes first. Patients must have at least three radiographically measurable pancreatic cancer lesions in different organs that have not previously received RT, two of which will receive RT. Eligible lesions include either the primary pancreatic tumor in unresected patients or distant metastatic lesions. Three fractions of 8 Gy each will be prescribed to one lesion during Week 3. Three fractions of 8 Gy each will be prescribed to the second lesion during Week 5. This is a single-arm trial with continuous monitoring of acute non-hematologic toxicity with the primary endpoint of progression free survival. Efficacy will be evaluated by time to progression or death, whichever comes first, and compared to historical control of chemotherapy alone as reported in the literature.
