Once enrolled, patients will undergo surgical placement of the HAI pump. This can be accomplished using minimally invasive or open techniques with an anticipated hospital stay of approximately 3-5 days. Prior to discharge from the hospital or at the first postoperative visit the pump is filled with FUDR according to the following equation: 0.12 mg/kg/d (using ideal body weight). This fill initiates day 1 of a 4-week cycle. The chemotherapy is infused by the pump continuously over 14 days. On day 15 (+/-4 days), the remaining chemotherapy is removed from the pump which is refilled with heparinized saline (30,000 units). This remains for an additional 2 weeks until the pump is refilled with FUDR at the start of the next cycle. Treatment is continued for a maximum of 6 cycles or as limited by toxicity. This regimen has been utilized with an acceptable safety profile in the setting of colorectal liver metastases.

Together the FUDR and the HAI pump are experimental because they are being used to treat hepatic liver metastases of Pancreatic adenocarcinoma. They have not yet been FDA approved for this indication, although they are both approved for other indications. The intervention is surgical placement of an HAI pump with subsequent delivery of FUDR via the pump in 28-day cycles. FUDR will be delivered via the HAI pump for 6 months, in 28 day cycles: 2 weeks of therapy, followed by 2 weeks of heparinized saline.

Floxuridine (FUDR)

Together the FUDR and the HAI pump are experimental because they are being used to treat hepatic liver metastases of Pancreatic adenocarcinoma. They have not yet been FDA approved for this indication, although they are both approved for other indications. The intervention is surgical placement of an HAI pump with subsequent delivery of FUDR via the pump in 28-day cycles. The primary tumor will be resected or ablated with irreversible electroporation at the time of HAI pump placement. FUDR will be delivered via the HAI pump for 6 months, in 28 day cycles: 2 weeks of therapy, followed by 2 weeks of heparinized saline.

Hepatic Artery Infusion Pump

Together the FUDR and the HAI pump are experimental because they are being used to treat hepatic liver metastases of Pancreatic adenocarcinoma. They have not yet been FDA approved for this indication, although they are both approved for other indications. FUDR will be delivered via the HAI pump for 6 months, in 28 day cycles: 2 weeks of therapy, followed by 2 weeks of heparinized saline.

This is a single arm, phase II study without blinding. The purpose is to determine the impact of hepatic artery infusion Floxuridine (FUDR) on liver metastases from pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Patients at Spectrum Health will receive standard of care chemotherapy. They will also receive chemotherapy via surgically placed hepatic artery infusion (HAI) pump.

This study hypothesizes that the combination of Floxuridine (FUDR), a type of chemotherapy, delivered via a hepatic artery infusion (HAI) pump, with standard of care systemic chemotherapy will lead to improved survival in the treatment of pancreatic cancer liver metastases. Patients will receive 6 cycles of FUDR and will be followed for two years.

Hepatic Artery Infusional Floxuridine to Treat Pancreatic Cancer Liver Metastases

A Phase II Trial of Hepatic Artery Infusional Floxuridine With Systemic Chemotherapy in the Treatment of Pancreatic Cancer Liver Metastases

The length of time from the start of trial therapy to the time when target liver lesions show progression or new lesions appear. (Determined by RECIST criteria: ≥20% growth in target lesions and/or appearance of new lesions).

The length of time from diagnosis to death, measured as the proportion of patients surviving at specific time points (6, 12 and 18 months from diagnosis).

The length of time from diagnosis to disease progression at any anatomical site (as determined by RECIST criteria) or death.

Determined by RECIST criteria on imaging studies done every 3 months

As measured by the EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 instrument
