Trial summary

Currently, standard treatment options for gastric cancer failed to first-line treatment include monotherapy with paclitaxel/irinotecan/docetaxel/albumin paclitaxel, or paclitaxel combined with ramucirumab. However, the efficacy of these regimens is still far from satisfactory. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Nab-paclitaxel Combined With Cadonilimab (AK104) for the Second-line Treatment of Advanced Gastric Cancer: A Prospective, Multicenter, Single-arm, Phase II Study

Currently, standard treatment options for gastric cancer failed to first-line treatment include monotherapy with paclitaxel/irinotecan/docetaxel/albumin paclitaxel, or paclitaxel combined with ramucirumab. However, the efficacy of these regimens is still far from satisfactory. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nab-paclitaxel combined with cadonilimab for the second-line treatment of advanced gastric cancer.

Read the detailed description

This trial is a prospective, multicenter, single arm, phase II clinical study. It is divided into three stages: screening period, treatment period, and follow-up period. The main research objective of this study is to evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) of albumin paclitaxel combined with kandelizumab (AK104) in second-line treatment of gastric cancer with failed first-line fluorouracil/platinum combination immunotherapy. Secondary study objective: To evaluate the disease control rate (DCR), progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), safety, tolerability, and impact on patient quality of life (QoL) of albumin paclitaxel combined with candelizumab (AK104) in second-line treatment of gastric cancer with failed first-line fluorouracil/platinum immunotherapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. overall response rate (ORR)

    the proportion of patients with the best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR)

    Measured: every 3 month postoperation up to 24 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. disease control rate (DCR)

    the proportion of patients with the best overall response of CR or PR or stable disease (SD)

    Measured: every 3 month postoperation up to 24 months

  2. overall survival (OS)

    defined as the time from randomization to death

    Measured: every 3 month postoperation up to 24 months

  3. progression-free survival (PFS)

    defined as the time from randomization to disease progression

    Measured: every 3 month postoperation up to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Nab-paclitaxel Combined With Cadonilimab (AK104) in people with Gastric Cancer, run by West China 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 18 inclusion and 30 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2024. 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?

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 Pengfei Zhang, M.D (+86-17828163584, fly_121988@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

overall response rate (ORR) (time frame: every 3 month postoperation up to 24 months). 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 NCT06349967, 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 5 Apr 2024.
