About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Parallel Control, Exploratory Trial to Compare Apatinib Plus Irinotecan Versus Single Irinotecan as Second-line Treatment in Subjects With Advanced Gastric Cancer or Adenocarcinoma of Esophagogastric Junction

The purpose of this study is to determine whether apatinib plus irinotecan can improve progression free survival compared with single irinotecan in patients with advanced gastric cancer or adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction who failed one lines of chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

Gastric cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in China. Most patients are unresectable or metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis,so the prognosis is poor.Systemic therapy was required for the patients with advanced stage. Platinum combined with fluoropyrimidines always were considered as first line treatment. After failure of initial therapy, single agent of irinotecan was used as second line treatment,but limited survival benefit.Apatinib, a novel targeted inhibitor of VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2).The purpose of this study is to determine whether apatinib plus irinotecan can improve progression free survival compared with single irinotecan in patients with advanced gastric cancer or adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction who failed one lines of chemotherapy.

Being tested
Apatinib, Irinotecan

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Apatinib and Irinotecan in people with Advanced Gastric Cancer Adenocarcinoma of Esophagogastric Junction, run by Fujian Cancer Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 19 inclusion and 11 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 25 Jan 2017. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jianwei Yang (008613805097959, swzcq62@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) (time frame: 18 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?
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 25 Jan 2017.
