350 Background: Nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine regimen (NABGEM) became a standard in first-line patients (pts) with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (mPAC). The AFUGEM trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of nab-paclitaxel plus simplified LV5FU2 (NABFU). Methods: Main eligibility criteria were: untreated mPAC, ECOG PS≤2. Pts received nab-paclitaxel (125 mg/m2 on d1, 8 and 15) plus gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2 on d1, 8 and 15) or plus simplified LV5FU2 (leucovorin 400 mg/m2, 5FU bolus 400 mg/m2 followed by 2400 mg/m2 given as a 46-hour continuous infusion on d1 and 15), one cycle every 4 weeks in both arms, ratio 1:2, respectively. The primary end point was observed progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 4 months (m). A Fleming 2-stage design was used with a targeted (H1) 4m-PFS rate of 50% in NABFU arm and an uninteresting 35% rate (H0, unilateral alpha of 5% and power of 80%). Results: 114 pts were included: NABGEM n=39, NABFU n=75. Baseline characteristics were well balanced: median age 66 years (45-86), ≥2 metastatic sites 36.8%, ECOG PS 0-1 84.2% and 2 15.8%, at the exception of pain more frequent in the NABFU arm (38.5% vs 56.0%). In mITT population, the observed 4m-PFS rates were of 55.4% [95% CI, 45-63] in NABFU Vs 53.9% [95% CI, 39.6-67.7] in NABGEM. Disease control rates were 65% (95% CI, 53-76) and 62% (95% CI, 45-77) respectively. After a follow-up of 24.3m, median PFS were 5.9 [95% CI, 3.6-7.4] v 4.9 months [95% CI, 2.1-7.7] [HR=0.79, 95% CI: 0.52-1.20]. Grade 3-4 adverse events were more frequent in NABGEM (77% v 87%). At tumor progression, in the NABFU arm, 50 patients (66%) and then 13 patients (17%) received a second and third line of chemotherapy respectively, versus 22 patients (56%) and 6 patients (15%) in the NABGEM arm. Median OS were 11.4 [95% CI, 8.8-16.5] v 9.2 months [95% CI, 6.0-13.6] [HR=0.61, 95% CI: 0.40-0.95], respectively. The 12 and 18-months OS rates in NABFU vs NABGEM arm were 48% Vs 41% and 34% Vs 13%, respectively. Conclusions: Nab-paclitaxel plus simplified LV5FU2 appears at least as active as gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel in mPAC. The toxicity profile is safe and tolerable. This regimen deserves evaluation in a phase III trial. Clinical trial information: NCT01964534.
