About this study

Official title: A Study of EGFR Monoclonal Antibody (Cetuximab/Nimotuzumab) in Combination With Chemotherapy Compared With Chemotherapy Alone in Patients With EGFR-amplification Advanced Gastric Cancer

This study is intended to evaluate efficacy and safety of EGFR monoclonal antibody (Cetuximab/Nimotuzumab) in combination with a chemotherapy in gastric cancer patients with EGFR amplification.

Read the detailed description

This parallel, randomized, open-label, single-centre study will evaluate the effect on overall survival of EGFR monoclonal antibody (Cetuximab/Nimotuzumab) in combination with a chemotherapy compared to the chemotherapy alone in patients with EGFR-amplication advanced gastric cancer. Cetuximab will be administered as intravenous infusion of 500 mg/m2 (BSA) every 3 weeks, while nimotuzumab will be administered as intravenous infusion of 400mg every week. The chemotherapy consists of a combination of 12 cycles of mFOLFOX-6, 6-8 cycles of SOX, 6-8 cycles of CapOX. Treatment with cetuximab/nimotuzumab will continue until disease progression. The target sample size is 50-100 patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    Time from treatment beginning until disease progression

    Measured: Evaluation of tumor burden until first documented progress through study completion, an average of 2 years

  2. Objective Response Rate

    Proportion of patients with reduction in tumor burden of a predefined amount, including complete remission and partial remission.

    Measured: Evaluation of tumor burden through study completion, an average of 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall Survival

    Time from treatment beginning until death from any cause

    Measured: From date of treatment beginning until the date of death from any cause through study completion, an average of 2 years

  2. Adverse Effect

    Incidence of Treatment-related adverse Events

    Measured: Incidence of Treatment-related adverse Events through study completion, an average of 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing EGFR antibody and Chemotherapy and Chemotherapy in people with Gastric Cancer and Cetuximab, run by Shanghai Changzheng 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 6 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 30 Dec 2020. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) (time frame: Evaluation of tumor burden until first documented progress through study completion, an average of 2 years). 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 30 Dec 2020.
