  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Main inclusion criteria include:

  • Patient with histological proven metastatic GIST or non-operable locally advanced GIST

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label, Active-controlled, Two-parallel Groups, Phase 3 Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Masitinib to Sunitinib in Patients With Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor After Progression With Imatinib at 400mg as First Line Treatment

The objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of masitinib at 12 mg/kg/day to sunitinib at 50 mg/day in the treatment of patients with gastro-intestinal stromal tumor (GIST) after progression with imatinib.

Read the detailed description

Masitinib is a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor with potent activity against wild-type c-Kit, the juxta membrane domain of c-Kit, and PDGFR. Masitinib is also thought to promote survival via modulation of immunostimulation-mediated anticancer effects and modulation of the tumor microenvironment. The objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of masitinib at 12 mg/kg/day with respect to sunitinib at 50 mg/day in the treatment of imatinib-resistant gastro-intestinal stromal tumor (GIST).

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
MasitinibExperimentalParticipants receive masitinib (12 mg/kg/day), given orally twice daily.

SunitinibActive comparatorParticipants receive sunitinib, given at 50 mg/day for 4 consecutive weeks out of 6 weeks, orally
Receives: Drug: Sunitinib

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival is defined as time in months from the randomization date to the date of death due to any cause. If a patient is not known to have died, then OS will be censored at the date of last known date patient alive.

    Measured: From day of randomization to death, assessed for a maximum of 60 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Survival rate

    Survival rate is defined as the number of patients alive divided by the number of patients in the population of analysis. Assessed at week-8, -16, -24, and every 12 weeks thereafter.

    Measured: Every 12 weeks until study completion, assessed for a maximum of 60 months

  2. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Progression Free Survival is defined as the time from the randomization date until the date of earliest evidence of disease progression or death, for participants who progressed or died before subsequent cancer therapy. Disease progression will be assessed by the investigator on CT scan according to RECIST 1.1 criteria and/or CHOI criteria.

    Measured: From day of randomization to disease progression or death, assessed for a maximum of 60 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Masitinib and Sunitinib in people with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors, run by AB Science at 5 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?

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 8 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in France, United States, Italy, Netherlands. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Overall Survival (OS) (time frame: From day of randomization to death, assessed for a maximum of 60 months). 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 8 Dec 2020.
