Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Relacorilant in Combination with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine

The patient will receive relacorilant administered orally under fed conditions, once daily for 3 consecutive days on the day before (excluding Cycle 1 Day -1), the day of, and the day after nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine intravenous (IV) infusions. Various dose levels and dosing schedules of relacorilant, nab-paclitaxel, and gemcitabine will be evaluated. On days when relacorilant, nab-paclitaxel, and gemcitabine are administered, relacorilant will be administered first, then nab-paclitaxel, and gemcitabine last.

Interventions

Relacorilant

Relacorilant will be administered as capsules for oral dosing.

Nab-paclitaxel

Nab-paclitaxel will be administered via IV infusion.

Gemcitabine

Gemcitabine will be administered via IV infusion.

Primary outcome measure

  • Percent of Patients who Experience Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) (Part 1) [ Time Frame: Up to 28 days after the first dose of study treatment ]
  • Number of Patients with 1 or More Adverse Events (AEs) Leading to Study Drug Discontinuations or Dose Modifications (Part 1) [ Time Frame: Time of first dose up to 30 days after last dose ]
  • Progression-Free Survival (PFS) (Part 2) [ Time Frame: From date of enrollment until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever comes first, assessed up to 12 months ]
