About this study

Official title: Apatinib Plus Sintilimab in Patients With Advanced Gastric Cancer

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Apatinib combined with PD-1 antibody Sintilimab for for Chemotherapy-Refractory Advanced Metastatic Gastric Cancer

Read the detailed description

Patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC) can be treated with multiple lines of chemotherapy. After second-line treatment some patients may receive third- and subsequent lines of chemotherapy if their performance status is well-preserved and they are willing to receive subsequent active treatments. Apatinib is a small-molecule VEGFR-2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved by the CFDA for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer. In a phase III trial, apatinib significantly improved PFS and OS compared with placebo, but the clinical benefit was modest. As a result of toxicity, 850 mg/day Apatinib may cause dose reduction and delay in some patients ,which also caused some doubts. Therefore, it is a reasonable treatment strategy by reducing the dose and combining it with another low-toxic drug to achieve similar or better effects. Some studies have shown that the combination of targeted therapy and immunotherapy may be effective in solid tumor. Sintilimab (IBI308) is a monoclonal antibody targeting programmed death-1 (PD-1). So, the investigators designed an open-label, single-arm, phase II clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib combined with Sintilimab in Chemotherapy-Refractory Advanced Metastatic Gastric Cancer.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease control rate(DCR)

    The percentage of patients who have achieved complete response, partial response and stable disease,evaluated by RECIST, confirmed at least 4 weeks following the date of the initial response.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    The percentage of patients who achieve complete response or partial response,evaluated by RECIST, confirmed at least 4 weeks following the date of the initial response.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    Overall survival (OS) was calculated from the date of initial treatment with apatinib to the date of death due to any cause.

    Measured: up to 12 months

  3. Duration of Response (DOR)

    Time from date of first RECIST response to progressive disease [PD] or death

    Measured: up to 12 months

  4. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS was calculated from the day of randomization to the date of first documented progression, or death from any cause.

    Measured: up to 12 months

  5. Adverse events(AE)

    Adverse events assessed using the NCI common toxicity criteria, version 4.01

    Measured: up to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Apatinib Mesylate and Sintilimab in people with Advanced Metastatic Gastric Cancer, run by Fujian Cancer Hospital.

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 12 inclusion and 13 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 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Nanfeng Fan, MD (008613705007267, Nanfeng_Fan@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease control rate(DCR) (time frame: 12 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 13 Sep 2019.
