About this study

Official title: Sintilimab Combined With Low-dose Radiation Therapy for Neoadjuvant Treatment of Locally Advanced Deficient Mismatch Repair/Microsatellite Instability-high Gastric Cancer: a Prospective, Multi-center, Single-arm, Phase Ib/II Clinical Trial

Recently, growing evidences have suggested that immunotherapy represents a promising treatment option for the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced mismatch repair-deficient (dMMR)/microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) gastric cancer. In this study, we will explore the efficacy and safety of sintilimab and LDRT in the neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced dMMR/MSI-H G/GEJ cancer.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, phase Ib/II trial. In the phase Ib, 4 cases will be enrolled in each treatment group. In the phase II study, a total of 33 patients will be enrolled. Eligible patients will be registered and receive four cycles of sintilimab. Simultaneously, LDRT will be planned and administered. Radical D2 gastric cancer resection will be performed 4-6 weeks after the last administration of sintilimab. The primary endpoint of phase Ib is to determine the optimal radiation dose for phase II study. The primary endpoint of phase II is the pathological complete response (pCR) rate. Secondary endpoints include R0 resection rate, major pathological response (MPR), objective response rate (ORR), 3-year event-free survival (EFS) rate, 3-year overall survival (OS) rate and safety profile of the neoadjuvant regimen.

What participants receive

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

  • sintiliman plus LDRTDrug

    All patients will start with one cycle of neoadjuvant therapy of sintilimab: sintilimab 200 mg, iv drip, d1, q3w.

    LDRT will be performed in the target area. After radiotherapy, patients will receive another three cycles of sintilimab.

    Radical D2 gastric cancer resection will be performed 4-6 weeks after the last administration of sintilimab.

    The adjuvant therapy will start in 4-6 weeks after the surgery, and we recommend adjuvant treatment with sintilimab for up to 10 cycles.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
sintilimab+LDRTExperimentalLaparoscopic exploration is required in all patients to detect occult peritoneal metastases. All patients will start with one cycle of neoadjuvant therapy of sintilimab: 200 mg, iv drip, d1, q3w. Then, LDRT will be performed in the target area (including the primary gastric lesion and positive/suspected positive lymph nodes). After radiotherapy, patients will receive another three cycles of sintilimab. Radical D2 gastric cancer resection will be performed 4-6 weeks after the last administration of sintilimab. The adjuvant therapy will start in 4-6 weeks after the surgery, and we recommend adjuvant treatment with sintilimab for up to 10 cycles.

What is being measured

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

  1. pCR rate

    defined as the absence of viable tumor cells assessed by histological evaluation criteria after neoadjuvant therapy

    Measured: 5 months after the last subject participating in

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. R0 resection rate

    defined as the rate of the complete surgical removal of any residual cancer cells in the tumor bed

    Measured: 5 months after the last subject participating in

  2. MPR rate

    defined as tumor residual cells ≤10% in the surgical specimen

    Measured: 5 months after the last subject participating in

  3. 3-year event-free survival (DFS)

    defined as the proportion of patients without event 23 years after enrolment

    Measured: every 3 month postoperation up to 36 months

  4. 2-year OS rate

    defined as the proportion of patients survived 3 years after enrolment

    Measured: every 3 month postoperation up to 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing sintiliman plus LDRT 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 6 inclusion and 26 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 23 May 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

pCR rate (time frame: 5 months after the last subject participating in). 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 23 May 2024.
