About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Study of Trastuzumab in Combination With TS-ONE and Cisplatin in First-line Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-Positive Advanced Gastric Cancer.

The investigators hypothesis is that the combination of TS-ONE with cisplatin and trastuzumab is safe and as effective as combination treatment for HER2 positive gastric cancer.

Read the detailed description

Gastric carcinoma is the second most common cause of cancer death world-wide. Approximately 875,000 patients are diagnosed world-wide with gastric cancer each year. Gastric cancer is often diagnosed at an advanced stage1. At diagnosis, while some patients have gastric carcinoma that extends within loco-regional confines and can undergo a curative resection, many patients cannot undergo curative resection. Gastric cancer continues to pose a major medical challenge.

While advanced gastric carcinoma is incurable, chemotherapy can have a palliative effect in symptomatic patients. Chemotherapy improves outcome compared to best supportive care in gastric cancer. Various chemotherapeutic agents including 5-FU, mitomycin, etoposide, cisplatin, irinotecan and the taxanes, have demonstrated activity as monotherapy. Combination chemotherapy has been shown to have better survival outcomes than single agent chemotherapy Standard chemotherapy for advanced gastric carcinoma includes a fluoropyrimidine and platinum -based combination chemotherapy.

What participants receive

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

  • Trastuzumab in Combination with TS-ONE and cisplatinDrug

    Subjects will receive treatment that combined TS-ONE, cisplatin and trastuzumab every 3 weeks in this study. This 3 weeks period of time is called a cycle. The cycle will be repeated until subject experience disease progression or unbearable toxicities or they choose to withdraw from the study. Each cycle is numbered in order.

Study groups in NCT01228045
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Trastuzumab in Combination with TS-ONE and cisplatinExperimentalThe initial dose of cisplatin is fixed to be 60 mg/m2 and intravenously administered over 1 hour on day 1 of the cycle. TS-ONE is orally administered consecutive 14-day followed by 7-day rest. The initial standard dose of TS-ONE is determined based on the body surface area tabled below. Trastuzumab is intravenously administered with the loading dose of 8 mg/kg followed by maintenance dose of 6mg/kg in day 1 of each cycle. The study treatments are repeated every 3 weeks. Study treatment can continue until PD, but cisplatin can be skipped or discontinued if patients experienced unbearable toxicity which comes from cisplatin.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    Measured: Fom the time measurement criteria are met for CR or PR (whichever is first recorded) until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Progression free survival (PFS)

    Measured: Time from registration until objective tumor progression or death for any reason that occurs by the end of the study.

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    Measured: Time from registration to the date of death.

  3. Time to Treatment Failure (TTF)

    Measured: Time from registration until discontinuation of treatment for any reason (including progression of disease, treatment toxicity, and death).

  4. Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR)

    Measured: proportion of patients with confirmed CR, PR, and SD over 24 weeks.

  5. Duration of Response (DR)

    Median time will be estimated using the Kaplan Meier method. 95% confidence interval of the median time will be estimated.

    Measured: Time from first assessment of CR or PR until the first date of PD or death within 60 days of the last tumor assessment or registration, whichever is first.

  6. Safety Evaluations

    AEs will be coded according to the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities Terminology (MedDRA) and the severity of the toxicities will be graded according to the NCI CTCAE criteria, version 3.0, where applicable. Concomitant medications will be coded according to WHO Medication Dictionary for Concomitant Medication.

    All AEs will be summarized (incidence) and listed by the System Organ Class (SOC), preferred term, toxicity/severity grade, and causal relationship. In addition, separate summaries of SAEs and Grade 3 or 4 AEs will be presented. Cardiac AEs including asymptomatic LVEF drops will also be summarized in separate tables.

    Hematological and chemistry laboratory parameters will be graded according to the NCI CTCAE criteria, where applicable. Absolute values and changes from baseline will be summarized by cycle. In addition, worst severity grade will also be summarized.

    Measured: Focus on AEs and laboratory assessments.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Trastuzumab in Combination with TS-ONE and cisplatin in people with Gastric Cancer, run by National University Hospital, Singapore at 1 site in Singapore.

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 12 inclusion and 16 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jun 2016. 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 Singapore. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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 Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: Fom the time measurement criteria are met for CR or PR (whichever is first recorded) until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented). 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 NCT01228045, which also lists 2 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 22 Jun 2016.
