Why stopped (as posted): Study closed to accrual due to the worsening risk: benefit ratio for participants receiving bintrafusp alfa (M7824).
Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Background: Fewer than 10 percent of people with pancreas cancer can have surgery. Surgery gives the best outcome. Radiation therapy is usually used to make surgery possible. But it does not work for most people. Adding immunotherapy might help. Objective: To find a safe combined dose of Bintrafusp Alfa (M7824), NHS-IL12 (M9241, and radiation and to see if it causes pancreas cancer tumors to shrink. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older who have pancreas cancer and cannot have curative surgery Design: Participants will be screened under protocol 01-C-0129 with: Medical history Physical exam Heart, urine, and blood tests Scans. For this, participants will lie in a machine that takes pictures of the body. They may receive a contrast agent by vein. Possible tumor biopsy Participants will take the study drugs either alone or with radiation. They will get M7824 by vein every 2 weeks. They will get M9241 injected under the skin every 4 weeks. Participants who get radiation will get it 5 days in a row the first month. Participants will have visits every 2 weeks. They will repeat screening tests. If participants tumors shrink, they will have surgery. If their whole tumor is removed, they will stop treatment. They will otherwise continue treatment as long as they can tolerate it and it is helping them. Participants will have visits 1 week and 1 month after they stop treatment. Then they will be contacted by phone or email for life. If they stop treatment for a reason other than their disease getting worse, they will have scans every 12 weeks.

Show eligibility criteria text
* INCLUSION CRITERIA:
* Histologically or cytologically proven pancreatic adenocarcinoma (subjects with endocrine or acinar pancreatic carcinoma are not eligible).
* Patients must have stage III or IV pancreatic cancer (Cohort 1) or locally advanced pancreas cancer (LAPC), either borderline resectable pancreas cancer or locally advanced, unresectable pancreas cancer (Cohorts 2 and 3).
* Patient must be eligible to undergo stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and have fiducial markers placed (any metal biliary stents are an acceptable alternative) (Cohorts 2-3).
* Age greater than or equal to 18 years. Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of bintrafusp alfa (M7824) and NHS-IL12 (M9241) in patients \<18 years of age, children are excluded from this study, but will be eligible for future pediatric trials.
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 1
* Must have measurable disease, per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1.
* Adequate hematological function defined by:
* white blood cell (WBC) count greater than or equal to 3 times 10\^9/L
* with absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than or equal to 1.0 times 10\^9/L,
* lymphocyte count greater than or equal to 0.5 times 10\^9/L,
* platelet count greater than or equal to 100 times 10\^9/L, and
* Hemoglobin (Hgb) greater than or equal to 9 g/dL (in absence of blood transfusion)
* Adequate renal function defined by:
* Creatinine OR Measured or calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) (estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) may also be used in place of CrCl)
* \< 1.75 x institution upper limit of normal OR
* greater than or equal to 45 mL/min/1.73 m\^2 for participant with creatinine levels greater than or equal to 1.75 X institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)
* Creatinine clearance (CrCl) or eGFR should be calculated per institutional standard
* Adequate hepatic function defined by:
* a total bilirubin level less than or equal to 3 times ULN,
* an aspartate aminotransferase (AST) level less than or equal to 5 times ULN,
* alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level less than or equal to 5 times ULN
* Patients with treated brain metastases are eligible if follow-up brain imaging after central nervous system (CNS)-directed therapy shows no evidence of progression
* Patients with new or progressive brain metastases (active brain metastases) or leptomeningeal disease are eligible if the treating physician determines that immediate CNS specific treatment is not required and is unlikely to be required during the first cycle of therapy.
* The effects of the study treatment on the developing human fetus are unknown; thus, women of childbearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) at the study entry, for the duration of study treatment and up to 120 days after the last dose of the drug for males and up to 60 days for females. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
