About this trial

This study will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of HRS-4642 in combination with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine (AG regimen) as conversion therapy for patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.

Participants will undergo regular assessments, including imaging scans and CA19-9 biomarker tests. If disease recurrence is suspected, unscheduled evaluations may be performed. For participants who discontinue treatment due to reasons other than disease progression (e.g., toxicity), tumor assessments will continue as scheduled until progression, loss to follow-up, death, consent withdrawal, or study termination.

After the final treatment, participants will enter a survival follow-up phase. Investigators will contact the participants or their families approximately every month (±7 days) to collect information on survival status (date and cause of death) and any subsequent anti-cancer treatments until death, loss to follow-up, study termination, or other study endpoints are met. All follow-up information will be documented in the medical records.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age ≥18 years and ≤75 years, regardless of gender.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

No distant metastasis.

Pancreatic head/uncinate process tumors: Tumor contact with the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) >180°.

Disqualifiers

Presence of portal hypertension or cavernous transformation of the portal vein; tumor involvement of the gastrointestinal tract causing gastrointestinal bleeding; tumor leading to intra-abdominal fistula or abscess; tumor encasement of the celiac artery or superior mesenteric artery (SMA) with significant vascular wall involvement (moth-eaten appearance).

Diagnosis of malignancies other than pancreatic cancer within 5 years prior to the first dose (excluding radically treated skin basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and/or carcinoma in situ).

History of active autoimmune disease requiring systemic therapy (e.g., disease-modifying agents, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressants) within 2 years prior to the first dose. Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) is not considered systemic therapy.

Current use of systemic corticosteroid therapy (excluding topical, inhaled, nasal, or intra-articular corticosteroids) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first study dose. Note: Use of physiologic doses of corticosteroids (≤10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) is permitted.

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • HRS-4642 Injection

    Drug

    Investigational Product: HRS-4642 Injection. Dosage Form: Injection. Strength: 10 mL: 30 mg. Route of Administration: Intravenous Infusion. Manufacturer: Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. Background: HRS-4642 is a highly potent, long-lasting, and selective KRAS G12D inhibitor developed by Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (Hengrui). It is a liposomal formulation. HRS-4642 specifically binds to KRAS G12D, thereby inhibiting the phosphorylation of MEK and ERK proteins, and exerts an antitumor effect.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

To evaluate the efficacy of HRS-4642 combined with AG (nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine) as conversion therapy in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer, as measured by the Objective Response Rate (ORR).

Tumor response will be assessed by investigators according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 via computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans.

Time frame
every 6 weeks(±7 days) from the first dose of study treatment until disease progression, initiation of new anti-cancer therapy, withdrawal of consent, death, or study termination, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months
