Study Summary

This randomized phase II trial studies how well veliparib together with gemcitabine hydrochloride and cisplatin works compared to gemcitabine hydrochloride and cisplatin alone in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread from where it started to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or spread from the primary site (place where it started) to other places in the body (metastatic). Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether giving veliparib together with gemcitabine hydrochloride and cisplatin is an effective treatment for pancreatic cancer.

Primary Outcome

There will be a small lead-in, non-randomized portion to Part I, where dose levels of veliparib 20 mg po BID (dose level 0), 40 mg po BID (dose level 1) and 80 mg po BID (dose level 2), will be evaluated on a day 1-12 schedule. The doses of gemcitabine 600 mg/m2 and cisplatin 25 mg/m2 are fixed. Three-6 patients will be evaluated per dose level starting with 20 mg po BID (dose level 0). If no dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), the dose of veliparib will be increased to 40 mg po BID (dose level 1) and
