Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Rivoceranib Plus BSCExperimentalParticipants will receive rivoceranib 700 milligrams (mg) orally once per day during each cycle plus BSC. BSC is defined as palliative, non-cancer therapy. Each cycle duration is 28 days.

PlaceboExperimentalParticipants will receive matching placebo to rivoceranib orally once per day during each cycle plus BSC. BSC is defined as palliative, non-cancer therapy. Each cycle duration is 28 days.
Receives: Drug: Placebo

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time from randomization to death. Participants alive or lost to follow-up at the end of study (EOS) were censored.

    Measured: Day 1 (randomization) up to approximately 36 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1)

    PFS was defined as the time from randomization to either documented radiological progression or death from any cause. Participants alive and free of progression at the EOS were censored.

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per RECIST 1.1

    ORR was defined as the percentage of participants in the analysis population with the best overall response of Complete Response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions and reduction in short axis of any nodal target lesions to <10 millimeter [mm]) or a Partial Response (PR: ≥30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of the target lesions, taking as a reference the baseline sum diameters) per RECIST 1.1.

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months

  3. Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    DCR was defined as the proportion of participants with a Best Overall Response of CR, PR, or stable disease (SD: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as a reference the smallest sum diameter while on study) per RECIST 1.1.

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months

  4. Change From Baseline in Global Health Status/Quality of Life (QoL) Measured by European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)

    EORTC QLQ-C30 is a cancer specific Questionnaire with 30 questions for assessing the health-related QOL of cancer participants. The questionnaire incorporates 5 functional scales, 4 symptom scales, a global QOL scale, and single items for the assessment of additional systems commonly reported by cancer participants. All items are scored on 4-point Likert scales, ranging from 1 ('not at all') to 4 ('very much'), with the exception of 2 items in the global QOL scale which use modified 7-point linear analog scales. A linear transformation was used to standardize all scores and single-items to a scale of 0 to 100. For the functioning scales, a higher score indicated greater functioning and for the symptom scales, a higher score indicated a greater symptom burden.

    Measured: Baseline, End of Treatment (EOT) (Up to 24 months)

  5. Change From Baseline in European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Stomach Cancer Specific (EORTC QLQ-STO22) Score

    EORTC QLQ-STO22 is a 22-item gastric cancer-specific questionnaire-integrating system for assessing the health-related QOL of gastric cancer participants. Most questions use 4-point scale (1 'Not at all' to 4 'Very much'; 1 question was a yes or no answer). A linear transformation was used to standardize all scores and single-items to a scale of 0 to 100. For the functioning scales, a higher score indicates greater functioning and for the symptom scales, a higher score indicates a greater symptom burden.

    Measured: Baseline, EOT (Up to 24 months)

  6. Change From Baseline in EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level Visual Analogue Scale (EQ-5D-5L VAS) Score

    EQ-5D-5L Questionnaire consists of EQ-5D-5L descriptive system and the visual analogue scale (VAS). The descriptive system comprises the 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) and each dimension has 5 levels. The VAS is designed to rate the participant's current health state on a scale from 0 to 100, where 0 represents the worst imaginable health state and 100 represents the best imaginable health state.

    Measured: Baseline, EOT (Up to 24 months)

  7. Number of Participants Per QOL Dimension Response as Measured by the EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) Questionnaire

    EQ-5D-5L Questionnaire comprises the 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) and each dimension has 5 levels of response.

    Measured: EOT (Month 24)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Rivoceranib in people with Gastric Cancer and Gastric Adenocarcinoma, run by Elevar Therapeutics at 95 sites in 12 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 16 inclusion and 8 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 8 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 95 sites in South Korea, Japan, Italy, Ukraine, Russia and 7 more countries. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Jul 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Overall Survival (OS) (time frame: Day 1 (randomization) up to approximately 36 months). 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 8 Jul 2022.
