Study groupRoleWhat they receive
RC48-ADC + JS001ExperimentalParticipants will receive RC48-ADC + JS001 every 2 weeks (Q2W) until investigator assessed loss of clinical benefit, unacceptable toxicity, investigator or participant decision to withdraw from therapy, or death (whichever occurs first).
Receives: Drug: RC48-ADC; Drug: Toripalimab
Gemcitabine + cisplatin/carboplatinActive comparatorParticipants will receive Gemcitabine + cisplatin or carboplatin every 3 weeks (Q3W) for maximum 6 weeks or until investigator assessed loss of clinical benefit, unacceptable toxicity, investigator or participant decision to withdraw from therapy, or death (whichever occurs first).
Receives: Drug: Gemcitabine; Drug: Cisplatin; Drug: Carboplatin

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS), evaluated by independent review committee

    Progression-free survival (PFS) refers to the time from the date of randomization to the first researcher's evaluation of disease progression or death (calculated by the event that occurred first). The disease progression will be evaluated by independent review committee according to the RECIST 1.1 standard.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    Overall survival (OS) refers to the time from the date of randomization to the date of death of the subject.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Objective remission rate (ORR)

    The objective response rate will be mainly analyzed by the independent efficacy evaluation committee according to the RECIST 1.1 standard tumor evaluation (the evaluation by the investigator will also be performed).

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS), evaluated by the investigator

    Progression-free survival (PFS) refers to the time from the date of randomization to the first researcher's evaluation of disease progression or death (calculated by the event that occurred first). The disease progression will be evaluated by the researchers according to the RECIST 1.1 standard.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years

  3. Duration of relief (DOR)

    DOR is defined as the time from the first documented objective response (CR or PR) to the first documented disease progression or death

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years

  4. Disease control rate (DCR)

    Disease control rate (DCR) is defined as cases where objective remission (assessed as complete remission or partial remission according to RECIST 1.1 standard) or stable disease during the study.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing RC48-ADC, Toripalimab and Gemcitabine in people with Urothelial Carcinoma and HER2-expressing, run by RemeGen Co., Ltd. at 2 sites 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 8 inclusion and 10 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Jianmin Fang, PhD (+86-010-58075561, jianminfang@hotmail.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), evaluated by independent review committee (time frame: Up to approximately 3 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05302284, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 18 Dec 2023.
