A Multicenter, Phase I/II Study of Sequential Epigenetic and Immune Targeting in Combination With Nab-Paclitaxel/Gemcitabine in Patients With Advanced Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma.

SEPION

A multi-center, open-label phase I/II study to to determine the safety and tolerability of Azacitidine and/or Romidepsin in combination with nab-Paclitaxel/Gemcitabine in patients with advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) (Part 1), followed by sequential immune targeting with programmed death-ligand (PD-L)1 blockade in combination with low-dose Lenalidomide (Part 2) in patients with controlled disease after 3 cycles (Part 1).
