Extending Outcomes for Pancreas Cancer Patients With Nominal Oligometastatic Disease (EXPAND): A Randomized Phase III Trial
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
Summary
The EXPAND trial (EXtending outcomes for PAncreas cancer patients with Nominal oligometastatic Disease) is a randomized phase III trial assessing the efficacy of MDT to improve PFS and OS for patients with oligometastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
Description
Primary Objectives: To determine whether, in patients with oligometastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, MDT to all sites of disease confers a benefit in PFS compared to systemic therapy alone. Secondary Objectives: Key secondary objective: To determine whether, in patients with oligometastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, MDT to all sites of disease confers a benefit in OS compared to systemic therapy alone. To assess safety/tolerability of MDT in patients with oligometastatic PDAC. To assess time to new lesion formation between treatment arms. To assess time to next-line syste…

Inclusion Criteria: Age 18 Histologically or cytologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Histologic / cytologic confirmation of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma may come from the primary tumor (i.e., via FNA at initial diagnosis). Histological/pathologic confirmation of distant metastatic disease is not required if clinical and radiographic consensus is that the patient has distant metastatic disease.
