About this study

Official title: A Phase II Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Fuquinitinib Combined With S-1 in the Treatment of Patients With Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Investigators conduct the clinical trial to further explore the efficacy and safety of Fruquintinib combined with S-1 in treating recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after the failure of conventional treatments.

Read the detailed description

Esophageal cancer is one of the most common malignant tumor and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is the main pathological type of esophageal carcinoma in China. Among patients with advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, the addition of immunotherapy to chemotherapy, compared with placebo and chemotherapy, significantly improved overall survival and progression-free survival.Treatment of recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is usually poor. New treatments were needed. Fruquintinib is an orally antiangiogenic agents, which target VEGFR1/2/3. A combination of Fruquintinib and s-1 for advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma could be a novel therapy. Therefore, investigators initialize this phase II study to explore the safety of fruquintinib and S-1 combination treatment in ESCC patients with after failure in 1st-line immunotherapy.

What participants receive

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

  • Fruquintinib in Combination with S-1Drug

    Cohort A: Fruquintinib 3 mg QD, oral dosing, 2 weeks on/1 weeks off+ S-1 40-60mg/time bid po d1-14 q3w.

    Cohort B: Fruquintinib 4 mg QD, oral dosing, 2 weeks on/1 weeks off+ S-1 40-60mg/time bid po d1-14 q3w.

    Cohort C: Fruquintinib 5 mg QD, oral dosing, 2 weeks on/1 weeks off+ S-1 40-60mg/time bid po d1-14 q3w.

    Patients will be treated until disease progression, death, unacceptable toxicity, loss of follow-up, withdrawal of consent or other conditions meet the end of treatment criteria.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression free survival (PFS)

    PFS defined as the time from the date of randomization to the first evidence of disease progression as defined by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) v1.1 or death from any cause.

    Measured: From date of first dose of study drug until disease progression, withdrawal of consent, death (up to approximately 1 year)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Overall survival (OS)

    Measured: Baseline to measured date of death from any cause (up to approximately 1 year)

  2. Objective response rate (ORR)

    Tumor assessment will be performed using radiography method every 6 weeks until the occurrence of progressive disease (PD), using RECIST v 1.1

    Measured: from treatment up to progressive disease or EOT due to any cause up to 1 year

  3. Disease control rate (DCR)

    Tumor assessment will be performed using radiography method every 6 weeks until the occurrence of progressive disease (PD), using RECIST v 1.1

    Measured: from treatment up to progressive disease or EOT due to any cause up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Fruquintinib in Combination with S-1 in people with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, run by Peking Union Medical College 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 9 inclusion and 20 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 5 Dec 2022. 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?

Contact Zhao Lin, MD (69158753 ext. 010, wz20010727@aliyun.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) (time frame: From date of first dose of study drug until disease progression, withdrawal of consent, death (up to approximately 1 year)). 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 5 Dec 2022.
