14 CLINICAL STUDIESIn Combination with Oxaliplatin, Fluorouracil and Leucovorin for First-Line Treatment of Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
The efficacy of ONIVYDE in combination with oxaliplatin, fluorouracil and leucovorin (NALIRIFOX) was evaluated in NAPOLI 3 (NCT04083235), a randomized, multicenter, open-label, active-controlled trial in 770 patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma who had not previously received chemotherapy in the metastatic setting. Randomization was stratified by region, liver metastases and ECOG performance status. Patients were randomized (1:1) to receive one of the following treatment arm:
- NALIRIFOX: ONIVYDE 50 mg/m2as an intravenous infusion over 90 minutes, followed by oxaliplatin 60 mg/m2as an intravenous infusion over 120 minutes, followed by leucovorin 400 mg/m2intravenously over 30 minutes, followed by fluorouracil 2400 mg/m2intravenously over 46 hours, every 2 weeks.
- Gem+NabP: Nab-paclitaxel 125 mg/m2as an intravenous infusion over 35 minutes, followed by gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2intravenously over 30 minutes on days 1, 8 and 15 of each 28-day cycle.
Patients homozygous for the UGT1A1*28 allele initiated ONIVYDE at the same dose (50 mg/m2ONIVYDE). Treatment continued until RECIST v1.1 defined disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Tumor status assessments were conducted at baseline and every 8 weeks thereafter as assessed by the investigator according to RECIST v1.1.
The main efficacy outcome measure was overall survival (OS). Additional efficacy measures were investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rate (ORR).
Baseline demographic and patient characteristics were: median age of 65 years (range: 20-85); 50% age 65 or older; 56% male; 83% White, 4.9% Asian, 2.5% Black or African American, 0.4% multiple race, 0.3% American Indian or Alaska Native; 0.1% Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander, 1.7% other, 7% not reported; and 82% non-Hispanic, 10% Hispanic, 8% not reported. ECOG performance status was 0 or 1 in 44% and 56% of patients, respectively; 80% had liver metastases.
NAPOLI 3 demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in OS and PFS for the NALIRIFOX arm over Gem+NabP arm as summarized in Table 8 and Figure 1.

The efficacy of ONIVYDE was evaluated in NAPOLI-1 (NCT01494506), a three-arm, randomized, open-label trial in patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma with documented disease progression, after gemcitabine or gemcitabine-based therapy. Key eligibility criteria included Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) ≥70, serum bilirubin within institution limits of normal, and albumin ≥3.0 g/dL. Patients were randomized to receive ONIVYDE plus fluorouracil/leucovorin (ONIVYDE/FU/LV), ONIVYDE, or fluorouracil/leucovorin (FU/LV). Randomization was stratified by ethnicity (White vs. East Asian vs. other), KPS (70-80 vs. 90-100), and baseline albumin level (≥ 4 g/dL vs. 3.0-3.9 g/dL). Patients randomized to ONIVYDE/FU/LV received ONIVYDE 70 mg/m2as an intravenous infusion over 90 minutes, followed by leucovorin 400 mg/m2intravenously over 30 minutes, followed by fluorouracil 2400 mg/m2intravenously over 46 hours, every 2 weeks. The ONIVYDE dose of 70 mg/m2is based on irinotecan free base (equivalent to 80 mg/m2of irinotecan as the hydrochloride trihydrate). Patients randomized to ONIVYDE as a single agent received ONIVYDE 100 mg/m2as an intravenous infusion over 90 minutes every 3 weeks. Patients randomized to FU/LV received leucovorin 200 mg/m2intravenously over 30 minutes, followed by fluorouracil 2000 mg/m2intravenously over 24 hours, administered on Days 1, 8, 15 and 22 of a 6-week cycle. Patients homozygous for the UGT1A1*28 allele initiated ONIVYDE at a reduced dose (50 mg/m2ONIVYDE, if given with FU/LV or 70 mg/m2ONIVYDE as a single agent). When ONIVYDE was withheld or discontinued for adverse reactions, FU was also withheld or discontinued. When the dose of ONIVYDE was reduced for adverse reactions, the dose of FU was reduced by 25%. Treatment continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
The major efficacy outcome measure was overall survival (OS) with two pair-wise comparisons: ONIVYDE versus FU/LV and ONIVYDE/FU/LV versus FU/LV. Additional efficacy outcome measures were progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rate (ORR). Tumor status assessments were conducted at baseline and every 6 weeks thereafter. The trial was initiated as a two-arm study and amended after initiation to include a third arm (ONIVYDE/FU/LV). The comparisons between the ONIVYDE/FU/LV and the FU/LV arms are limited to patients enrolled in the FU/LV arm after this protocol amendment.
Four hundred seventeen patients were randomized to: ONIVYDE/FU/LV (N=117), ONIVYDE (N=151), or FU/LV (N=149). Baseline demographics and tumor characteristics for the 236 patients randomized to ONIVYDE/FU/LV or FU/LV (N=119) after the addition of the third arm to the study were a median age of 63 years (range 34-81 years) and with 41% ≥ 65 years of age; 58% were men; 63% were White, 30% were Asian, 3% were Black or African American, and 5% were other. Mean baseline albumin level was 3.97 g/dL, and baseline KPS was 90-100 in 53% of patients. Disease characteristics included liver metastasis (67%) and lung metastasis (31%). A total of 13% of patients received gemcitabine in the neoadjuvant/adjuvant setting only, 55% of patients had 1 prior line of therapy for metastatic disease, and 33% of patients had 2 or more prior lines of therapy for metastatic disease. All patients received prior gemcitabine (alone or in combination with another agent), 54% received prior gemcitabine in combination with another agent, and 13% received prior gemcitabine in combination with nab-paclitaxel.
NAPOLI-1 demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in overall survival for the ONIVYDE/FU/LV arm over the FU/LV arm as summarized in Table 9 and Figure 2.
There was no improvement in overall survival for the ONIVYDE arm over the FU/LV arm (hazard ratio=1.00, p-value=0.97 (two-sided log-rank test)).

Injection: 43 mg/10 mL irinotecan free base as a white to slightly yellow, opaque, liposomal dispersion in a single-dose vial.
- Lactation: Do not breastfeed. ()
8.2 LactationRisk SummaryThere is no information regarding the presence of irinotecan liposome, irinotecan, or SN-38 (an active metabolite of irinotecan) in human milk, or the effects on the breastfed infant or on milk production. Irinotecan is present in rat milk
[see Data].Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed infants from ONIVYDE, advise a nursing woman not to breastfeed during treatment with ONIVYDE and for one month after the last dose.
DataRadioactivity appeared in rat milk within 5 minutes of intravenous administration of radiolabeled irinotecan HCl and was concentrated up to 65-fold at 4 hours after administration relative to plasma concentrations.
