Summary

"This trial is for adults with advanced pancreatic cancer who have not had success with previous treatments. The study aims to determine the highest safe dose of BI 765883 for these patients when taken alone or with

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced pancreatic cancer who have not had success with previous treatments or for whom no treatment exists. They must be able to provide informed consent, have a life expectancy of at least 3 months, and agree to use effective birth control. A confirmed diagnosis of Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is required, along with an ECOG performance status ≤1.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the highest tolerable dose of BI 765883 alone or combined with chemotherapy in treating advanced pancreatic cancer. It's the first time BI 765883 is given to humans, aiming to check its effectiveness against this type of cancer.
What are the potential side effects?
Since BI 765883 is being tested for the first time in humans, specific side effects are unknown but may include typical reactions related to chemotherapy such as nausea, fatigue, hair loss, and increased risk of infection.
