Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed gastric carcinoma, including gastric adenocarcinoma or GEJ adenocarcinoma
  • Metastatic disease or locally recurrent, unresectable disease with measurable lymph node metastases
  • Measurable disease and/or evaluable disease. Measurable disease is defined as at least one unidimensionally-measurable target lesion [≥ 2 centimeter (cm) with conventional techniques or ≥ 1 cm by spiral computed tomography (CT)], as defined by Response using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST).
  • Examples of evaluable, nonmeasurable disease include gastric, peritoneal, or mesenteric thickening in areas of known disease, or peritoneal nodules that are too small to be considered measurable by RECIST
  • Experienced disease progression during or within 4 months after the last dose of first-line therapy for metastatic disease, or during or within 6 months after the last dose of adjuvant therapy
  • Disease is not amenable to potentially curative resection
Show all 19Show fewer
  • Participant is ≥ 18 years of age
  • Participant has a life expectancy of ≥ 12 weeks
  • Participant resolution to Grade ≤ 1 (or to Grade ≤ 2 in the case of neuropathy) by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE), Version 3.0, of all clinically significant toxic effects of prior chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy, or hormonal therapy (with the exception of alopecia)
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG-PS) score of 0-1
  • The participant has adequate hepatic function as defined by a total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 milligrams/deciliter (mg/dL) [25.65 micromole/liter (µmol/L)], and aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤ 3.0 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) [or 5.0 x the ULN in the setting of liver metastases]
  • The participant has adequate renal function as defined by a serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x the ULN, or creatinine clearance (measured via 24-hour urine collection) ≥ 40 milliliters/minute (mL/min) (that is, if serum creatinine is > 1.5 x the ULN, a 24-hour urine collection to calculate creatinine clearance must be performed)
  • The participant's urinary protein is ≤ 1+ on dipstick or routine urinalysis ([UA]; if urine dipstick or routine analysis is ≥ 2+, a 24-hour urine collection for protein must demonstrate < 1000 milligrams (mg) of protein in 24 hours to allow participation in the study)
  • The participant has adequate hematologic function, as evidenced by an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1000 microliters (µL), hemoglobin ≥ 9 grams/deciliter (g/dL) [5.58 millimoles/liter (mmol/L)], and platelets ≥ 100,000/µL
  • The participant must have adequate coagulation function as defined by International Normalized Ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 and a partial thromboplastin time (PTT) ≤ 5 seconds above the ULN (unless receiving anticoagulation therapy). Participant on anticoagulation therapy with unresected primary tumors or local tumor recurrence following resection are not eligible
  • If the participant has received prior anthracycline therapy as part of his or her first-line regimen, the participant is able to engage in ordinary physical activity without significant fatigue or dyspnea
  • Because the teratogenicity of IMC-1121B is not known, the participant, if sexually active, must be postmenopausal, surgically sterile, or using effective contraception (hormonal or barrier methods)
  • Female participant of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to randomization
  • Able to provide informed written consent and is amenable to compliance with protocol schedules and testing

About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blinded Study of IMC-1121B and Best Supportive Care (BSC) Versus Placebo and BSC in the Treatment of Metastatic Gastric or Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma Following Disease Progression on First-Line Platinum- or Fluoropyrimidine-Containing Combination Therapy

The purpose of this study is to gather information about the use of an investigational drug called Ramucirumab in adenocarcinomas of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction.

Read the detailed description

Placebo-controlled, multicenter Phase 3 study of participants with metastatic gastric cancer [including adenocarcinomas of the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ)] and disease progression on standard first-line chemotherapeutic regimens. Participants will be randomized on a 2:1 basis to receive best supportive care plus ramucirumab administered every 2 weeks or best supportive care plus placebo administered every 2 weeks, respectively. Participants will undergo radiographic assessment of disease status every 6 weeks. Participant will be treated until there is evidence of progressive disease, toxicity requiring cessation, withdrawal of consent, or until other withdrawal criteria are met.

Approximately 348 participants, with histologically- or cytologically-confirmed, metastatic gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma, and radiographically measurable disease as defined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors or evaluable, nonmeasurable disease, will be randomized. Participants will be enrolled from approximately 250 study centers in North America, South America, Central America, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe.

    BSC as determined appropriate by the investigator(s). BSC may include but are not limited to antiemetic agents, opiate and nonopiate analgesic agents, appetite stimulants, and granulocyte and erythroid growth factors.

Study groups in NCT00917384
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ramucirumabExperimentalParticipants receive ramucirumab, administered via intravenous infusion every 2 weeks at a dose of 8 milligrams/kilogram (mg/kg), and best supportive care (BSC) as determined appropriate by the investigator(s). Treatment will continue until there is evidence of progressive disease (PD), the development of unacceptable toxicity, protocol noncompliance, or withdrawal of consent.
Receives: Biological: ramucirumab; Other: Best Supportive Care (BSC)
PlaceboPlacebo comparatorParticipants receive injection for intravenous infusion every 2 weeks plus BSC as determined appropriate by the investigator(s). Because investigators and ancillary medical personnel will be blinded as to assignment to active therapy versus placebo, the volume of placebo to be administered will be calculated as if it were active product with a dose of 8 mg/kg. Treatment will continue until there is evidence of PD, the development of unacceptable toxicity, protocol noncompliance, or withdrawal of consent.
Receives: Drug: Placebo; Other: Best Supportive Care (BSC)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause. Participants who were alive at the date of data cut-off or who were lost to follow-up were censored on the last date the participant was known to be alive

    Measured: Randomization up to 28 months post-randomization

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from date of randomization until date of objectively determined progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever is first. Participants alive and without PD were censored at the time of last adequate objective tumor assessment (that is, response other than unevaluable).

    Measured: Randomization up to 17 months

  2. Percentage of Participants Who Are Progression-Free at Week 12 (PFS Rate)

    The percentage of participants alive and progression-free 12 weeks after randomization. Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of objectively determined progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause whichever comes first. Participants alive and without PD were censored at the time of the last adequate objective tumor assessment.

    Measured: Week 12 post-randomization

  3. Percentage of Participants With Objective Response (Objective Response Rate [ORR])

    ORR is equal to the percentage of participants achieving a best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). CR and PR were defined using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.0). CR is defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions, no appearance of new lesions and confirmed at the consecutive tumor assessment. PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters (LD) of target lesions (taking as reference the baseline sum LD), no progression of non-target lesions, no appearance of new lesions and confirmed at a subsequent tumor assessment.

    Measured: Randomization up to 17 months post-randomization

  4. Duration of Response (DOR)

    DOR is the interval from date of initial documented response (complete response [CR] or partial response [PR]) to first documented date of disease progression (PD) or death as a result of any cause. CR and PR were defined using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.0). CR is defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions, no appearance of new lesions and confirmed at the consecutive tumor assessment. PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters (LD) of target lesions (taking as reference the baseline sum LD), no progression of non-target lesions, no appearance of new lesions and confirmed at a subsequent tumor assessment. Participants who did not relapse or die were censored at the time of the last adequate objective tumor assessment.

    Measured: Randomization up to 17 months post-randomization

  5. Change From Baseline in Quality of Life (QoL) as Measured by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ-C30)

    EORTC QLQ-C30 v3.0 is a self-administered questionnaire with multidimensional scales that measures 5 functional domains (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social), global health status, and symptom scales of fatigue, pain, nausea and vomiting, dyspnea, loss of appetite, insomnia, constipation and diarrhea, and financial difficulties. A linear transformation is applied to standardize the raw scores to range between 0 and 100 per developer guidelines. For functional domains and global health status, higher scores represent a better level of functioning. For symptoms scales, higher scores represented a greater degree of symptoms. Best change from baseline results determined by Least Square (LS) mean estimated with randomization stratification factors and baseline value as continuous covariate.

    Measured: Baseline up to Cycle 10 (18 weeks [1 cycle=2 weeks])

  6. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    Clinically significant events were defined as serious adverse events (SAE) and other treatment-emergent non-serious adverse events (NSAE). A summary of SAEs and all other NSAEs is located in the Reported Adverse Event module.

    Measured: Randomization up to 18 months

  7. Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of IMC-1121B

    Cmax was not analyzed as only pre-dose samples were collected.

    Measured: 6 weeks post-randomization

  8. Number of Participants Who Developed Antibodies Against IMC-1121B

    The number of participants who developed treatment emergent antibody responses to IMC-1121B after baseline.

    Measured: Baseline, 12 Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing ramucirumab in people with Gastric Cancer and Adenocarcinoma, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 161 sites in 30 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 19 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 161 sites in India, Brazil, United States, Italy, Czechia and 25 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Oct 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall Survival (OS) (time frame: Randomization up to 28 months post-randomization). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00917384, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Sep 2019.
