BioCancell to begin pancreatic cancer clinical trial

BioCancell Therapeutics, a biotechnology company, has planned to begin patient enrollment for its Phase IIb pancreatic cancer clinical trial.

The trial will evaluate the efficacy of BioCancell’s BC-819 in sequence with Gemcitabine, in treating locally-advanced, unresectable pancreatic cancer. pbpb

About 100 participants are expected to be enrolled in multiple medical centers in Europe, Israel and the US.

Half of the participants will be treated with the combination of BioCancell’s BC-819 and Gemcitabine, and the other half will be treated with Gemcitabine alone.

The primary endpoint of the trial is progression-free survival, while secondary objectives comprise overall survival, response rate and resectability of the target tumor lesion.
