- Must have received lead-in chemotherapy in the first-line setting using one of the fluoropyrimidines- and oxaliplatin-based doublet combinations as specified in Section 7 and continued for three months (i.e. 6 administrations for bi-weekly cycles regimens or 4 administrations for three-weekly cycles regimens). Patients who had received adjuvant cisplatin/oxaliplatin plus fluoropyrimidine-based doublet chemotherapy and had recurrence beyond 12 months from its completion are eligible.
- Must have radiological evidence of clinical benefit following the last dose of the lead-in chemotherapy (either CR, PR or SD by RECIST v1.1 criteria in case of measurable disease, or absence of progressive disease in case of non-measurable disease).
- Laboratory requirements:
- The patient has adequate hematologic function, as evidenced by an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1000/µL, hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL (5.58 mmol/L), and platelets ≥100,000/µL.
- The patient has adequate hepatic function as defined by a total bilirubin ≤1.5 mg/dL (25.65 μmol/L), and aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤ 3.0 times the upper limit of normal (ULN; or 5.0 times the ULN in the setting of liver metastases).
- The patient has adequate renal function as defined by a serum creatinine ≤1.5 times the ULN, or creatinine clearance (measured via 24-hour urine collection) ≥40 mL/minute (that is, if serum creatinine is >1.5 times the ULN, a 24-hour urine collection to calculate creatinine clearance must be performed). The patient's urinary protein is ≤1+ on dipstick or routine urinalysis (UA; if urine dipstick or routine analysis is ≥2+, a 24-hour urine collection for protein must demonstrate <1000 mg of protein in 24 hours to allow participation in this protocol).
- Coagulation: The patient must have adequate coagulation function as defined by International Normalized Ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5, and a partial thromboplastin time (PTT) ≤ 5 seconds above the ULN (unless receiving anticoagulation therapy). Patients receiving warfarin must be switched to low molecular weight heparin and have achieved stable coagulation profile prior to randomization
- Patients must be accessible for treatment and follow up. Patients registered on this trial must be treated and followed at the participating center.
- Archival tumor tissue is required for exploratory research at enrollment.
- Because the teratogenicity of ramucirumab is not known, the patient, if sexually active, must be postmenopausal, surgically sterile, or using effective contraception (hormonal or barrier methods) for the entire duration of the study including a minimum of 12 weeks after dosing has been completed. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to enrolment. Women must not be breastfeeding.
Who cannot join
- Exclude a patient from this study if any of the following conditions are observed:
- HER2 positive status, or the patient has squamous cell.

About this study
Official title: Assessment of Ramucirumab Plus Paclitaxel as Switch MANteInance Versus Continuation of First-line Chemotherapy in Patients With Advanced HER-2 Negative Gastric or Gastroesophageal Junction Cancers: the ARMANI Phase III Trial
This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter phase III trial of ramucirumab plus paclitaxel, given as switch maintenance, versus continuation of first-line chemotherapy, given as per standard clinical practice, in subjects with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic HER-2 negative gastric or GEJ cancer, without disease progression following 3 months of first-line doublet chemotherapy.
The acceptable first-line or lead-in chemotherapy will be:
- FOLFOX4:Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2. l-Leucovorin 100 mg/m2 5-fluorouracil 400/600 mg/m2. Cycle length is 2 weeks +/- 3 days.
- ModifiedFOLFOX6: Oxaliplatin a 85 mg/m2. l-Leucovorin 200 mg/m2. 5-fluorouracil 400 mg/m2 and 2400 mg/m2 46-hours continous infusion. Cycle length is 2 weeks +/- 3 days.
- XELOX:Oxaliplatin130 mg/m2.Capecitabine will be 2000 mg/m2 for 14 days. Cycle length is 3 weeks +/- 3 days.
Read the detailed description
Treatment must be continued for up to 4 three-weekly cycles or 6 bi-weekly cycles, or for up to a maximum of 12 weeks. Subjects with CR/PR/SD after oxaliplatinum compound and fluoropyrimidine-based regimens, or without evidence of progressive disease in case of non-measurable disease, will be randomized in 1:1 ratio between the two treatment arms.
Prior to randomization, subjects will be stratified based on Center; Prior gastrectomy: No vs. Yes; Peritoneal carcinomatosis: Yes vs. No; Site of origin: GEJ vs. gastric.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing RAMUCIRUMAB, Paclitaxel and FOLFOX 4 in people with Stomach Neoplasms, run by Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori, Milano at 1 site in Italy.
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 16 inclusion and 31 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 13 Sep 2021. 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 Italy. 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 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?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact MARIA DI BARTOLOMEO, MD (+390223902882, maria.dibartolomeo@istitutotumori.mi.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
