Summary

This is a randomized, double blind, 3 arm (1:1:1) study in subjects with 1st-line metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The purpose is to test the efficacy and safety of demcizumab, when given in combination with gemcitabine and Abraxane® compared to placebo. The administration of gemcitabine and Abraxane® is a standard treatment for patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

  • Subjects with clinically significant ascites
  • Malignancies other than pancreatic cancer successfully treated within 3 years prior to randomization, except for adequately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix, basal or squamous cell skin cancer, treated superficial bladder cancer, localized prostate cancer treated surgically with curative intent, ductal carcinoma in situ treated surgically with curative intent
  • Significant intercurrent illness that will limit the patient's ability to participate in the study or may result in their death over the next 18 months
