What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS was defined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST version (v.) 1.1] as the time from randomization to the first observation of progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever came first. PD was a ≥20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions with the sum demonstrating an absolute increase of ≥5 millimeters (mm); the appearance of ≥1 new lesions or unequivocal progression of non-target lesions. If a participant did not have a baseline disease assessment, PFS time was censored at the randomization date, regardless of whether or not PD or death was observed. Participants not known to have died or have objective PD were censored at the last post-baseline radiological assessment date.

    Measured: Randomization to measured PD or date of death from any cause (up to Month 25.0)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. OS was censored at the date of the last follow-up visit for participants who were alive or lost to follow-up.

    Measured: Randomization to date of death from any cause (up to Month 28.3)

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving an Objective Response (Objective Response Rate)

    The percentage of participants who achieved a best overall response of partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) is reported. Response was defined using RECIST, v. 1.1 criteria. CR was the disappearance of all lesions and pathological lymph node reduction in the short axis to <10 mm. PR was a ≥30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions. The percentage of participants with objective response=(number of participants whose best overall response achieved was CR or PR/number of participants treated)*100.

    Measured: Randomization to measured PD (up to Month 23.0)

  3. Duration of Response

    Duration of response was defined using RECIST v. 1.1 criteria as the time from the date criteria were met for the first objectively recorded CR or PR until the first date criteria for PD were met or death from any cause. CR was the disappearance of all lesions and pathological lymph node reduction in the short axis to <10 mm. PR was a ≥30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions. PD was a ≥20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions with the sum demonstrating an absolute increase of ≥5 mm; the appearance of ≥1 new lesions or unequivocal progression of non-target lesions. Participants who were not known to have died and who did not have PD were censored at the date of the last tumor assessment prior to the date of any subsequent systemic anticancer therapy.

    Measured: Time of first response to measured PD (up to Month 23.0)

  4. Time to Disease Progression (TTP)

    TTP was defined using RECIST v. 1.1 as the time from study randomization to the first date of PD. PD was a ≥20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions with the sum demonstrating an absolute increase of ≥5 mm; the appearance of ≥1 new lesions or unequivocal progression of non-target lesions. TTP was censored at the date of last adequate tumor assessment if death was due to causes other than PD.

    Measured: Randomization to measured PD (up to Month 25.0)

  5. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Anti-Ramucirumab Antibodies

    Participants with treatment-emergent anti-ramucirumab antibodies were participants with a 4-fold increase (2 dilution increase) in immunogenicity titer over baseline titer, or participants who tested negative at baseline and positive post-baseline (at titer of ≥1:20).

    Measured: Months 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ramucirumab, Oxaliplatin and Leucovorin in people with Stomach Cancer and Esophageal Cancer, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 58 sites in United States.

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 10 inclusion and 22 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 8 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 58 sites in United States. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 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?

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) (time frame: Randomization to measured PD or date of death from any cause (up to Month 25.0)). 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 NCT01246960, 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 8 Oct 2014.
