Compensation
Not stated
  • Study-related exams and procedures are typically provided at no cost. This is how many trials work in general — confirm the details for this study with the study team.
  • Participants are monitored closely by the research team throughout the study.
  • Some participants may receive access to an investigational treatment, which is still being studied.
  • Your participation helps researchers learn whether this approach could help future patients.

About this study

This is a prospective, randomized study designed to compare genotype-guided dosing to usual care in patients with pancreas cancer and colorectal cancer who are UGT1A1 intermediate metabolizers (\*1/\*28) (heterozygotes) and usual UGT metabolizers (\*1/\*1). All patients will be assessed for UGT1A1 genotype at screening and those with intermediate or usual UGT1A1 genotypes (\*1/\*28, \*1/\*1) will be randomized to genotype-guided dosing versus usual care.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.

Eligibility

Official eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients must have histologically confirmed stage I-IV pancreas or stage III-IV colorectal cancer who are planning to undergo treatment. * Prior treatment is allowed, specifically surgery and/or radiation and non-irinotecan containing regimens are allowed. * Age ≥ 18 years. * ECOG performance status ≤ 1. * Patients must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below: * Measurable or non-measurable disease. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who received prior treatment with irinotecan are excluded. * Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with targeted therapy, in the opinion of the treating physician. * Pregnant women are excluded from this study. * Patients who are not planned for treatment of their cancer.
