Alliance A022106: A phase II/III trial of NABPLAGEM vs nab-paclitaxel/gemcitabine as second-line treatment for <i>BRCA1/2</i> or <i>PALB2</i> mutant metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PLATINUM).
Bibliographic record
Abstract
TPS4205 Background: Multiple lines of evidence support the use of platinum-based chemotherapy for patients with homologous recombination deficiency-associated pancreatic adenocarcinoma (HRD PDAC; 15-20%). However, the impact of the specific platinum agent used remains uncertain. Mechanistically, oxaliplatin and cisplatin act distinctly on cancer cells, reflected in disparate toxicity profiles and target disease indications; furthermore, preclinical studies have shown that BRCA2-deficient cell lines and mice demonstrate significantly greater sensitivity to cisplatin compared to oxaliplatin. While oxaliplatin, part of the FOLFIRINOX regimen, represents the most commonly used platinum analogue for PDAC, clinical data shows that cisplatin (in combination with gemcitabine) can produce robust response rates (~70%) specifically in patients with germline BRCA/PALB2-mutated metastatic PDAC. We therefore designed a randomized clinical trial (PLATINUM) through the Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology cooperative group to assess the optimal chemotherapy regimen in patients with HRD-associated metastatic PDAC following front-line FOLFIRINOX and to test the hypothesis that a platinum switch strategy will be beneficial. Methods: The study consists of a seamless phase II/III design, with the primary endpoint of the phase III component being overall survival. Eligible patients will have metastatic PDAC, a confirmed pathogenic BRCA1/2 or PALB2 mutation (somatic or germline), and demonstrated disease progression on front-line FOLFIRINOX, with or without subsequent PARP inhibitor maintenance. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive (1) the de facto standard of gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel; or (2) the experimental 3-drug combination of gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel, and cisplatin (NABPLAGEM), which has been previously studied in non-biomarker-selected patients with advanced biliary tract cancer (SWOG1815) and metastatic PDAC. Both treatment arms will use a once every other week dosing schedule. A total of 100 patients will be enrolled, which provides 90% power to detect an effect size of hazard ratio 0.5 (median OS of 18 vs 9 months) at a one-sided alpha of 0.05. Reports containing efficacy, adverse events, and administrative information will be provided to the Alliance DSMB every 6 months. Planned correlatives include ctDNA analysis for BRCA reversion mutations in all patients, as well as whole genome and transcriptome sequencing in an optional biopsy cohort. This study was activated in December 2023. Clinical trial information: NCT06115499 .

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
