In clinical practice and research, combination of anticancer agents is often used to improve efficacy of treatment. In vitro and in vivo experiments have shown additive-synergistic anti-tumour effects of AS703569 treatment when combined with gemcitabine. Specifically, additive-synergistic anti-tumour effects were noticed when the two agents were given sequentially and not concomitantly i.e. AS703569 given the day before or the day after gemcitabine. This trial was designed to investigate in parallel two regimens testing sequential administration of AS703569 either the day after gemcitabine infusion, (Regimen 1) or the day before (Regimen 2).

|---|---|---|---|
| Regimen 1: AS703569/gemcitabine | Experimental | Gemcitabine on Days 1 and 8, AS703569 on Days 2 and 9, of a 21-day cycle |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| AS703569/gemcitabine | Drug | Gemcitabine on Days 1 and 8, AS703569 on Days 2 and 9, of a 21-day cycle. The starting dose (DL1) for AS703569 will be 10mg/m2/day. The subsequent dose levels of AS703569 will follow the dose-escalation scheme with an approximate 50% increase from DL1 to DL2, 40% from DL2 to DL3, and thereafter an approximate increase of 33% from one dose level to the next. Gemcitabine will be administered at the dose of 1000mg/m2 once weekly during the first two weeks of each 21-day cycle. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) | To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) during a 21-day cycle, for each of the two planned regimens using combination therapy with AS703569 and gemcitabine. | 21 days |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) | Proportion/number of subjects with TEAE's during the first and subsequent treatment cycles in each cohort for each of the 2 regimens. | Minimum 21 days or 1 cycle |
| Progression-Free Survival (PFS) time (For subjects with locally advanced /metastatic pancreatic cancer included after completion of the dose escalation part) |

Subjects on chronic hormonal therapy may continue with the same treatment unchanged.
Adequate renal, hepatic and bone marrow functions (assessed 7 days before inclusion in the trial) as defined by:
