Study Summary

This phase II trial compares two treatment combinations: gemcitabine hydrochloride and nab-paclitaxel, or fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and liposomal irinotecan in older patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, nab-paclitaxel, fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and liposomal irinotecan, 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. This study may help doctors find out which treatment combination is better at prolonging life in older patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.

Primary Outcome

Will use a stratified log rank test with one-sided alpha of 0.05 and 90% power. A truncated O'Brien-Fleming boundary will be used to control type I error for efficacy testing and repeated confidence interval methodology on the OS hazard ratio will be used for futility analyses
