About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Sorafenib in Patients With Metastatic or Advanced Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors Who Failed to Imatinib and Sunitinib

With discovery of KIT (CD117) mutations and the advent of KIT tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib, there has been substantial improvement in overall survival in patients with advanced and/or metastatic gastrointestinal tumors (GIST). Recently, sunitinib showed activity as second-line therapy in GIST patients after failure with imatinib. However, virtually all patients will eventually progress or become intolerable after imatinib and sunitinib. In preclinical models, sorafenib inhibits KIT activity and cell growth of imatinib-resistant tumors. The objective of this multi-center, non-randomized phase II study is to evaluate the safety and activity of sorafenib given as third-line therapy for GIST.

Read the detailed description

This is a non-randomized, open-label, multi-center, phase II study recruiting patients with advanced GIST who are pretreated with both imatinib and sunitinib. The current study will provide an estimate of the activity and safety of sorafenib in GIST. The primary study endpoint is the disease control rate (DCR), defined as complete or partial response or stable disease of at least 24 weeks of sorafenib therapy. Secondary endpoints include PFS, OS and safety.

Patients with advanced (unresectable and/or metastatic) GIST who failed after previous therapy involving both imatinib and sunitinib will be eligible. Failure to imatinib and sunitinib is defined as disease progression regardless of intervening response during therapy, or intolerance. There is no limit to the number of prior therapies a patient may have received (e.g., patients may have received therapy with nilotinib, other TKIs, or chemotherapy in addition to imatinib or sunitinib).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sorafenib in people with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors, run by Samsung Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 9 inclusion and 7 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 20 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. 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. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Disease-control rate (time frame: Six months after registration). 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 NCT01091207, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 20 Jan 2012.
