This is a Phase 2 multicenter, open-label, non-randomized study to examine the safety and effectiveness of BPM31510 administered over 144-hours (two 72-hour 110mg/Kg doses) continuous intravenous (IV) infusion in combination with gemcitabine in advanced pancreatic cancer patients as 2nd / 3rd line therapy. The study will enroll up to 25 patients in the US and Europe.

This is a Phase 2 multicenter, open-label, non-randomized study to examine the safety and effectiveness of BPM31510 administered over 144-hours (two 72-hour 110mg/Kg doses) continuous intravenous (IV) infusion in combination with gemcitabine in advanced pancreatic cancer patients as 2nd / 3rd line therapy.

Cycle 1 of therapy is 6 weeks in duration with BPM31510 administered twice weekly on Tuesdays and Fridays for 6 weeks plus gemcitabine administered on Mondays, Days 21, 28 and 35.

Cycles 2-12 are 4 weeks in duration with BPM31510 administered twice weekly on Tuesdays and Fridays for 4 weeks plus gemcitabine administered on Mondays, Days 7, 14 and 21. Response will be assessed after Cycle 2 (10 weeks) and patients who continue onto Cycles 2-12 will be assessed every 2 cycles (8 weeks).

Patients will continue BPM31510 in combination with gemcitabine, for a maximum of 12 cycles in the absence of intolerable toxicity and progression. If gemcitabine is discontinued due to chemotherapy-related toxicity, patients may continue to receive BPM31510 as monotherapy.

Patients who experience disease progression but are, in the opinion of the investigator, receiving clinical benefit may continue BPM31510 as a monotherapy or in combination with gemcitabine or as a monotherapy pending approval from the Sponsor.

• Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 1 week prior to beginning study treatment.

• The patient has adequate organ and marrow function as follows:

  • absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ≥ 1500 mm3, platelets ≥ 100,000/mm3, hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL,
  • serum creatinine < upper limit of normal (ULN);
  • total bilirubin < 1.5 X (ULN) ; alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST) ≤ 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) if no liver involvement or ≤ 5 times the upper limit of normal with liver involvement.

• The patient has serum electrolytes (including calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, sodium and potassium) within normal limits (supplementation to maintain normal electrolytes is allowed).

• The patient has adequate coagulation: prothrombin time (PT) and an International Normalized Ratio (INR), and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN),

• In the opinion of the Investigator, the patient is capable of understanding and complying with the protocol and has signed the informed consent document.

Exclusion Criteria:

• The patient has uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to uncontrolled infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure (NYHA class III and IV), uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
• The patient has active heart disease including myocardial infarction within previous 3 months, symptomatic coronary artery disease, arrhythmias not controlled by medication, unstable angina pectoris, or uncontrolled congestive heart failure (NYHA class III and IV).
• The patient has received chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 4 weeks or has received nitrosoureas or mitomycin C within 6 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug.
• The patient has received radiation to ≥ 25% of his or her bone marrow within 4 weeks of the first dose of study drug.
• The patient has received an investigational drug within 30 days of the first dose of study drug.
• Evidence of central nervous system (CNS) metastasis (negative imaging study, if clinically indicated, within 4 weeks of Screening Visit).
• History of other malignancies (except adequately treated Stage 1 cancer, cured basal cell carcinoma, superficial bladder cancer, Breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), or carcinoma in situ of the cervix) unless documented free of cancer for ≥5 years.

• The patient is pregnant or lactating.
• The patient is known to be positive for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The effect of BPM31510 on HIV medications is unknown. Note: HIV testing is not required for eligibility, but if performed previously and was positive, the patient is ineligible for the study.
• The patient has an inability or unwillingness to abide by the study protocol or cooperate fully with the Investigator or designee.
• The patient is receiving digoxin, digitoxin, lanatoside C or any type of digitalis alkaloids.
• The patient has uncontrolled or severe coagulopathies or a history of clinically significant bleeding within the past 6 months, such as hemoptysis, epistaxis, hematochezia, hematuria, or gastrointestinal bleeding.
• The patient has a known predisposition for bleeding such as von Willebrand's disease or other such condition.
• The patient requires therapeutic doses of any anticoagulant, including low molecular weight heparin (LMWH). Concomitant use of warfarin, even at prophylactic doses, is prohibited.
