What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) in the Pilot Part of the Study

    DLTs consisted of only drug-related toxicities (neurologic and non-neurologic DLTs). A neurologic DLT was defined as grade 3/4 clinically significant peripheral motor and/or sensitive neuropathy. Non-neurologic DLTs mainly included the following: grade 3/4 clinically significant non-hematological toxicity (except nausea), grade 4 neutropenia lasting >=7 days, thrombocytopenia (<=25000 cells per cubic millimeter), inability to begin next treatment within 2 weeks of scheduled dosing due to unresolved toxicity, treatment delay (due to toxicity) of >5 days, for Days 8 or 15 of weekly paclitaxel.

    Measured: 28 days

  2. Overall Survival (OS) in the Randomized Part of the Study

    OS was defined as the time from randomization until death due to any cause. For participants who did not die, time to death was censored at the time of last contact. For censored participants, time to death was defined as the time from randomization to the time of last contact.

    Measured: From randomization until death due to any cause (up to 42.58 months)

    Time to response was defined as the time from randomization to CR (the disappearance of all target lesions) or PR (a greater than 30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD). For participants who did not achieve a CR or PR, time to response was censored at the last assessment prior to other cancer therapies. For censored participants, time to response was defined as the time from randomization to the time of the last assessment prior to the administation of other cancer therapies.

    Measured: up to 5.62 months

  15. Duration of Response in the Randomized Part of the Study

    Duration of response was defined as the time from the first documented evidence of CR (the disappearance of all target lesions) or PR (a greater than 30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD) until the first documented sign of disease progression (at least a 20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started, or the appearance of one or more new lesions) or death due to any cause, if sooner.

    Measured: Baseline and end of therapy (up to 42.58 months)

  32. Change From Baseline in the EORTC QLQ-STO22 Dysphagia Scale Score at the End of Therapy in the Randomized Part of the Study

    The EORTC QLQ-STO22 is a 22-item, self-reporting instrument consisting of 5 scales and 4 single items to assess health-related quality of life (HRQOL) issues related to dysphagia, eating restrictions, reflux, and abdominal pain, as well as specific symptoms that may occur during chemotherapy or radiation treatment.

  41. Number of Participants With the Indicated Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Immunohistochemistry Intensity in the Randomized Part of the Study

    EGFR protein expression on the surface of cells in gastric cancer tissue samples was measured using a moncolonal antibody specific for the extracellular region of EGFR, and the degree of membrane staining was evaluated. 3+ indicates positive EGFR expression; <3+ indicates negative EGFR expression.

    Measured: Pretreatment

  42. Number of Participants With the Indicated Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) Immunohistochemistry Intensity in the Randomized Part of the Study

    HER2 protein expression on the surface of cells in gastric cancer tissue samples was measured using a monoclonal antibody specific for the extracellulr region of HER2, and the degree of membrane staining was evaulated. The immunohistochemistry test gives a score of 0 to 3+ and measures the amount of HER2 receptor protein on the surface of cells in a gastric cancer tissue sample. Score of 0 to 1+, "HER2 negative"; score of 2+, "borderline"; score of 3+, "HER2 positive."

    Measured: Pretreatment

  43. Number of Participants With Mutations That May Correlate With Response and Toxicity to Lapatinib

    An inadequate number of tissue samples were obtained; thus, analysis could not be performed.

    Measured: Pretreatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Lapatinib and Paclitaxel in people with Neoplasms, Gastrointestinal Tract, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 17 sites in 4 countries.

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 40 inclusion and 19 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jun 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in Taiwan, South Korea, China, Japan. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 Feb 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) in the Pilot Part of the Study (time frame: 28 days). 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 20 Jun 2013.
