Trial summary

IMAB362 is a monoclonal antibody specific for gastric or lower esophageal adenocarcinoma. Preclinically IMAB362 was shown to inhibit tumor growth and to kill cancer cells by indirect (complement-dependent cytotoxicity, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity) and direct mechanisms (antiproliferative and proapoptotic… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: International, Multicenter, Open-label, Phase II Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Multiple Doses of IMAB362 in Patients With Advanced Adenocarcinoma of the Stomach or the Lower Esophagus

IMAB362 is a monoclonal antibody specific for gastric or lower esophageal adenocarcinoma. Preclinically IMAB362 was shown to inhibit tumor growth and to kill cancer cells by indirect (complement-dependent cytotoxicity, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity) and direct mechanisms (antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects). The aim of this phase II study is to establish efficacy and safety of multiple doses of IMAB362 as monotherapy in patients suffering from metastatic, refractory or recurrent adenocarcinoma of the stomach or the lower esophagus.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • IMAB362Drug

    Cohort 1 repeated doses of 300 mg/m2 Cohort 2 repeated doses of 600 mg/m2 Cohort 3 doses to be determined, 600mg/m2 or less

Study groups in NCT01197885
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
IMAB362ExperimentalTwo different doses (antibody / body surface area) of IMAB362 will be administered sequentially.
Receives: Drug: IMAB362

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of remission (CR, PR) according to RECIST Criteria

    Measured: All patients will be evaluated in 8-12 weeks intervals until 6 months after last infusion

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Measured: All patients will be evaluated in 8-12 weeks intervals until 6 months after last infusion

  2. Frequency and severity of adverse events according to CTCAE v3.0

    Measured: All patients will be evaluated in 8-12 weeks intervals until 6 months after last infusion

  3. Progression-free-survival time (PFS)

    The time from start of the first infusion to date of first observed disease progression or death due to progression (whichever is first)

    Measured: All patients will be evaluated in 8-12 weeks intervals until 6 months after last infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing IMAB362 in people with Solid Tumors, run by Ganymed Pharmaceuticals GmbH at 21 sites in 5 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 3 inclusion and 5 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 13 Jun 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in Germany, Bulgaria, Latvia, Lithuania, Switzerland. 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?

Rate of remission (CR, PR) according to RECIST Criteria (time frame: All patients will be evaluated in 8-12 weeks intervals until 6 months after last infusion). 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 NCT01197885, 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 13 Jun 2025.
