About this study

Official title: ONO-4538 Phase II/III Study A Multicenter, Randomized Study in Patients With Unresectable Advanced or Recurrent Gastric Cancer

The purpose of study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ONO-4538 with chemotherapy in unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer (including esophagogastric junction cancer) not previously treated with the first-line therapy. Part 1 is intended to evaluate the tolerability, safety, and efficacy of ONO-4538 in combination with SOX therapy (Tegafur / gimeracil / oteracil potassium + Oxaliplatin) or CapeOX therapy (Capecitabine + Oxaliplatin). In part 2, the investigator or the subinvestigator will choose a chemotherapy (SOX or CapeOX therapy), taking into account the condition of each subject. Part 2 is planned to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ONO-4538 + chemotherapy in comparison with placebo + chemotherapy.

Conditions
Gastric Cancer
Being tested
ONO-4538, Oxaliplatin, Tegafur- Gimeracil-Oteracil potassium, Capecitabine, Placebo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing ONO-4538, Oxaliplatin and Tegafur- Gimeracil-Oteracil potassium in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Ono Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 130 sites in 3 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 3 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 130 sites in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan. 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 combined 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.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Progression-free survival (central assessment by IRRC) (only Part 2) (time frame: Up to study completion (estimated time frame: 48 months)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02746796, which also lists 4 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 3 May 2024.
