About this study

Official title: Multi-center Phase II Trial of Nimotuzumab Plus Irinotecan in Patients With High EGFR Expression After Failure of First-line Treatment in Recurrent or Metastatic Gastric Adenocarcinoma(NIEGA)

The trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adding nimotuzumab to irinotecan after failure of first-line treatment in recurrent or metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma with overexpression of EGFR, and search for the effective biomarkers for nimotuzumab efficacy in gastric cancer.

Read the detailed description

The sample size was calculated using Simon's 2-stage design. The first stage require at least 4 or more out of 19 patients to have a confirmed partial or complete response (assuming P1 = 0.30, P0 = 0.10, with alpha = 0.05 and beta = 0.2) before proceeding to the second stage, in which additional 36 patients were needed. If a total of 15 or more patients achieve a confirmed objective response, then the primary end-point would have been met. The predicted response rate in this study is at least 30%. Blood and tissue samples are required to collect at baseline, response and disease progression.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • IrinotecanDrug

    180 mg/m2 IV once every 2 weeks until radiographically documented tumour progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent by the patient

  • nimotuzumabDrug

    400mg IV once weekly until radiographically documented tumour progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent by the patient

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective response rate

    CT/MRI will be performed every 2 cycles of treatment by RECIST 1.1.Overall Response Rate is defined as the proportion of subjects with CR or PR in the best overall response

    Measured: From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Overall survival

    Overall survival is defined as the time from the date of enrollment to the date of the death from any cause.

    Measured: 3 years after first enrollment

  2. Progression free survival

    Progression Free Survival is defined as the time from the date of enrollment to the date of progression or death from any cause

    Measured: 3 years after first enrollment

  3. Disease control rate

    Disease Control Rate is defined as the proportion of subjects with CR, PR or SD in the best overall response

    Measured: From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months

  4. Safety

    Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0

    Measured: From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months

  5. Potential predictive biomarkers of nimotuzumab

    Measured: 3 years after first enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Irinotecan and nimotuzumab in people with Stomach Neoplasms, run by Peking University 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 16 inclusion and 5 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 17 Jan 2018. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective response rate (time frame: From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 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 17 Jan 2018.
