About this study

Official title: The Master Protocol for Biomarker-Integrated Umbrella Trial in Advanced Gastric Cancer

In-depth understanding of molecular characteristics of gastric cancer enabled us to realize personalized medicine with targeted agents in gastric cancer treatment.

The investigators initiated open-label, randomized, controlled phase II, multi-arm trial comparing targeted therapy based on tumor molecular profiling with standard paclitaxel therapy as second line treatment.

Study groups in NCT02951091
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
biomarker groupExperimental400 Her-2 (-) metastatic/recurrent gastric cancer patients will be centrally screened for druggable targets [Epstein-Barr virus, Microsatellite instability, HER2, EGFR, c-MET, and PTEN] by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization during first line chemotherapy. At the time of second line treatment, patients will be randomized to the biomarker vs control group as 4: 1 ratio. The biomarker group will be offered for entry into a specific protocol based on their molecular cohort and treated with specific targeted agents in combination with weekly paclitaxel; 1) EGFR cohort (EGFR 2+ or EGFR 3+) for pan-ERBB inhibitor (afatinib), 2)PTEN loss cohort (PTEN score less than 100) for PIK3CB inhibitor (GSK2636771), 3) PD-L1 positive, MSI-high, or EBV positive cases for nivolumab, 4) none for weekly paclitaxel.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing biomarker screening in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 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 30 Dec 2024. 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 South Korea. 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.

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 (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 NCT02951091, 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 30 Dec 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
