About this study

Official title: An Open, Multi-center Study to Determine the Antibody Response to 500µg G17DT Given at Weeks 0, 2, and 6 in the Treatment of Patients With Gastric Cancer

This study was designed to investigate the antibody response generated by a 500µg dose of G17DT in patients with gastric cancer.

Read the detailed description

Another study, GC2, initiated prior to the start of this study investigated the appropriate dose and dosing schedule for G17DT in patients with Stage I-III gastric cancer. The highest dose tested in the GC2 study was 250µg. This dose was well tolerated but was not considered sufficiently immunogenic. Since tolerability had not constrained dosing up to 250µg, the GC5 study was designed to investigate a 500µg dose administered as a regimen of 0, 2, and 6 weeks.

G17DTExperimentalTreatment with 500µg/ 0.4mL dose of G17DT administered by intramuscular injection at 0, 2, and 6 weeks.
Receives: Biological: G17DT

What is being measured

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

  1. Antibody Levels

    Gastrin-17 antibodies are produced as a result of treatment with G17DT and the proportion of patients producing gastrin-17 antibodies was considered to be an appropriate measure of the immunogenicity of the dosing schedule under study.

    Measured: Through Week 12

  2. Injection Site Reaction

    A physical examination for the presence of an abscess at the injection site was performed on each patient to assess tolerability to treatment at every posttreatment visit from Week 0 to Week 12.

    Measured: Up to Week 12

  3. Change in Subject's World Health Organization Performance Status

    The subject's WHO performance status was evaluated at each visit up to Week 12 to assess changes in subject's ability complete normal daily activities.

    Measured: Through Week 12

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall Survival

    Vital status was monitored throughout the study. Patients were followed up to their death or the study completion date, 18 June 2001.

    Measured: From date of randomization up to Week 24 or until death

  2. Adverse Events

    All adverse events reported during the study.

    Measured: Through week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing G17DT in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Cancer Advances Inc. at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 6 inclusion and 9 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 21 May 2015. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

Antibody Levels (time frame: Through Week 12). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 21 May 2015.
