Interventions

  • Fostamatinib in combination with chemotherapy (gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel) — COMBINATION_PRODUCT
    Fostamatinib is a Syk kinase inhibitor currently FDA-approved for chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura but it has not been studied in PDAC. The investigators hypothesize that Syk inhibition reprograms macrophages to an immunostimulatory phenotype in the tumor microenvironment. Thus, Syk inhibition with fostamatinib in combination with chemotherapy could improve outcomes for patients with PDAC while having a favorable safety profile.

Study Details

This is a Phase 1b trial evaluating the combination of Fostamatinib, a Syk kinase inhibitor currently FDA-approved for chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura (ITP), with the standard of care chemotherapy agents gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel, for the perioperative treatment of resectable non metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
