ABSTRACT: Objective
Cancer antigen (CA)-125 influences progression, metastasis, and outcomes in pancreatic cancer. This phase I/II trial (NCT01959672) evaluated the safety, efficacy, and immunologic correlates of chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) with oregovomab (anti-CA-125), followed by stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) with the radiosensitizer nelfinavir.Materials and methods
Following imaging, pathologic confirmation, and staging laparoscopy, subjects received three 3-week cycles of CIT (gemcitabine/leucovorin/fluorouracil/oregovomab). Thereafter, nelfinavir was delivered (1250 mg bid) for 5 weeks, with SBRT (40 Gy/5 fractions) occurring during the third week of nelfinavir. Following another cycle of CIT, pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed if resectable. Three more cycles of CIT we
