Phase 1/2 randomized, open-label, multicenter, Simon two-stage study of pelareorep combined with modified FOLFIRINOX +/- atezolizumab in patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
TPS4203 Background: Immune therapies benefit only the small subset of metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (mPDAC) patients who have microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) tumors (approximately 1%). Most PDAC tumors are microsatellite stable (MSS) and have an immunologically “cold” phenotype with fewer genetic mutations, reduced immune cell infiltration, and downregulated immune checkpoint proteins. These attributes make most mPDAC tumors resistant to conventional immunotherapy including checkpoint inhibitors. Pelareorep is a naturally occurring, non-genetically modified reovirus that selectively infects cancer cells following intravenous administration. Upon infection, pelareorep’s double-stranded RNA genome stimulates a pro-inflammatory response that primes tumors for immunologic killing. This includes increased T cell infiltration into tumors, expansion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte clones, increased PD-L1 expression, and stimulation of tumor-directed innate and adaptive immune responses. Pelareorep combined with chemotherapy, checkpoint inhibitors, or both has shown promising efficacy in several malignancies, including mPDAC. This study is designed to evaluate pelareorep plus modified FOLFIRINOX with or without the PD-L1 inhibitor atezolizumab as first-line therapy in patients with mPDAC. Methods: This trial represents a new cohort within the ongoing GOBLET signal finding platform study in gastrointestinal cancers. This is a phase 1/2 randomized, open-label study that uses a screened selection design within a Simon two-stage approach. Eligible patients must be 18 years or older and have newly diagnosed, radiologically evaluable mPDAC with no prior chemotherapy and an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1. Patients are randomized 1:1 to receive either pelareorep + mFOLFIRINOX orpelareorep + mFOLFIRINOX + atezolizumab. The first stage enrolls 15 evaluable patients into each arm. If pre-specified efficacy criteria are met in Stage 1, one or both arms may be expanded to Stage 2 and enroll 17 additional evaluable patients per arm. The first 3-6 patients enrolled into both arms comprise a safety run-in that must be successfully concluded prior to enrolling additional patients. The treatment period consists of 4-week treatment cycles. The primary objectives are 1) safety and tolerability of pelareorep + mFOLFIRINOX with or without atezolizumab and 2) efficacy based on objective response rate per RECIST v1.1. Secondary objectives include duration of response, progression-free survival, and overall survival. In addition, tumor and blood samples are being collected to evaluate the immunological effects of treatment and to explore potential biomarkers of response.

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.
