Treatment and study plan

Gemcitabine

Drug

Phase 2: dose determined by phase 1

Other names: LY188011, Gemzar

Phase 2: 175 mg/m2, intravenous (IV), every 21 days x 2 cycles

Primary outcomes

  1. Tumor Response

    Time frame: baseline to measured progressive disease

    Best response recorded from the start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria that defines when participants improve ("respond"), stay the same ("stable"), or worsen ("progression") during treatment. Responders are patients with complete response or partial response.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Duration of Response

    Time frame: time of response to progressive disease

    The duration of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) was defined as the time from first objective status assessment of CR or PR to the first time of progression or death as a result of any cause.

  2. Time to Progressive Disease

    Time frame: baseline to measured progressive disease

    Defined as the time from study enrollment to the first date of disease progression. Time to disease progression was censored at the date of death if death was due to other cause.

  3. Number of Participants Alive at One Year (1-Year Survival)

    Time frame: baseline to date of death from any cause, evaluated at 1 year

  4. Pharmacokinetics - Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Time frame: cycle 1, day 1 (0 minutes, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.58, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5 hours) and 8 (0, 15, 30, 35, 45, 60, 90, 120 minutes)

    Maximum plasma concentration of gemcitabine plus paclitaxel on Day 1, Cycle 1, and gemcitabine monotherapy on Day 8, Cycle 1.

  5. Pharmacokinetics - Area Under the Concentration Curve (AUC)

    Time frame: cycle 1, day 1 (0 minutes, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.58, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5 hours) and 8 (0, 15, 30, 35, 45, 60, 90, 120 minutes)

    Area under the concentration curve from time zero to infinity.

  6. Pharmacokinetics - Half Life (t½)

    Time frame: cycle 1, day 1 (0 minutes, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.58, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5 hours) and 8 (0, 15, 30, 35, 45, 60, 90, 120 minutes)

    Apparent elimination half-life.
