| Secondary study design | Randomised controlled trial |
| Scientific title | Oxaliplatin/folinic acid/5-fluorouracil (24-hour) (OFF) plus best supportive care versus best supportive care alone (BSC) in second-line therapy of gemcitabine-refractory advanced pancreatic cancer |
| Study objectives | Study hypothesis: To test the hypothesis that second-line chemotherapy with OFF improves overall survival compared to best supportive care alone. Amendment 1: To test the hypothesis that second-line chemotherapy with OFF improves overall survival compared to folinic acid/5-fluorouracil (24-hour) and best supportive care alone (FF). |
| Ethics approval(s) | Approval received from the Ethikkommission der Charite Universitatsmedizin Berlin on the 14th October 2002 (ref: 192/2002); amendment 1 approved on 12th December 2003. |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Pancreatic cancer |
| Intervention | After stratification for duration of first line therapy, Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) and tumour stage, patients were randomised and treated with 5-fluorouracil (FU) 2 g/m^2 (24-hour)/folinic acid (FA) 200 mg/m^2 (FF) on days 1, 8, 15 and 22 with or without oxaliplatin 85 mg/m^2 (2-hour) on days 8 and 22. Therapy paused on days 23 to 42. |
| Intervention type | Drug |
| Phase | Phase III |
| Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Oxaliplatin, folinic acid, 5-fluorouracil |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
