About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized, Multicenter Phase III Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Pertuzumab in Combination With Trastuzumab and Chemotherapy in Patients With HER2-Positive Metastatic Gastroesophageal Junction and Gastric Cancer

This double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, multicenter, international, parallel arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab, fluoropyrimidine and cisplatin as first-line treatment in participants with HER2-positive metastatic gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) or gastric cancer (GC). Participants will be randomized to receive pertuzumab 840 milligrams (mg) or placebo intravenously every 3 weeks (q3w) in combination with trastuzumab (initial dose of 8 milligrams per kilogram [mg/kg] intravenously [IV] followed by 6 mg/kg IV q3w) and cisplatin and fluoropyrimidine (capecitabine or 5-fluorouracil) for the first 6 treatment cycles. Participants will continue to receive pertuzumab or placebo and trastuzumab until disease progression occurrence of unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal from the study for another reason.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Survival

    Overall survival (OS) was defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause. For participants who were still alive on the date of clinical data cut-off for the OS analysis, the last date when the participant was known to be alive on, or prior to the clinical cut-off date, was used to determine the censoring date. Participants who did not have any post-baseline data (e.g., dosing records, imaging dates, visit dates) were censored at the date of randomization plus 1 day.

    Measured: From Baseline until death from any cause (Median [full range] duration of follow-up in Pertuzumab vs. Placebo arms for Primary Analysis: 24.4 [0-42] months vs. 25.0 [0-41] months; Final Analysis: 46.1 [0-70] months vs. 44.4 [0-68] months)

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Progression-Free Survival, as Determined by the Investigator According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) Criteria

    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of progressive disease (PD), as determined by the investigator using RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. Tumor assessments with CT or MRI scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis were performed every 9 weeks. Participants without documented PD or death were censored at the tumor assessment date for which the participant was last known to be progression-free. Participants who did not have any post-baseline tumor assessment data were censored at the date of randomization plus 1 day. PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study, including baseline; an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeters (mm) in the sum of diameters of target lesions; the appearance of one or more new lesions.

    Measured: Baseline to death or progressive disease (PD), whichever occurred first (Median [full range] duration of follow-up in Pertuzumab vs. Placebo arms for Primary Analysis: 24.9 [0-41] vs. 21.3 [0-39] months; Final Analysis: 50.4 [0-70] vs. 47.4 [0-66] months)

  2. Primary Analysis of the Percentage of Participants With Overall Objective Response, as Determined by the Investigator According to RECIST v1.1 Criteria

    The overall objective response rate was defined as the percentage of participants with partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) occurring on two consecutive occasions ≥4 weeks apart, as determined by the investigator using RECIST v1.1. Tumor assessments with computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis were performed every 9 weeks. PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. CR: disappearance of all target lesions. Measurable disease is defined as tumor lesions measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter in plane of measurement) with a minimum size of: 10 mm by CT or MRI scan; 10 mm caliper measurement by clinical examination; 20 mm by chest X-ray. For a malignant lymph node to be considered pathologically enlarged and measurable, it must be greater than or equal to (≥) 15 mm in short axis when assessed by CT scan.

    Measured: Baseline up to death or progressive disease, whichever occurred first (Median [full range] duration of follow-up in Pertuzumab vs. Placebo arms for Primary Analysis: 24.9 [0-41] months vs. 21.3 [0-39] months)

  3. Final Analysis of the Percentage of Participants With Overall Objective Response, as Determined by the Investigator According to RECIST v1.1 Criteria

    The overall objective response rate was defined as the percentage of participants with partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) occurring on two consecutive occasions ≥4 weeks apart, as determined by the investigator using RECIST v1.1. Tumor assessments with computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis were performed every 9 weeks. PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. CR: disappearance of all target lesions. Measurable disease is defined as tumor lesions measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter in plane of measurement) with a minimum size of: 10 mm by CT or MRI scan; 10 mm caliper measurement by clinical examination; 20 mm by chest X-ray. For a malignant lymph node to be considered pathologically enlarged and measurable, it must be greater than or equal to (≥) 15 mm in short axis when assessed by CT scan.

    Measured: Baseline up to death or progressive disease, whichever occurred first (Median [full range] duration of follow-up in Pertuzumab vs. Placebo arms for Final Analysis: 50.4 [0-70] months vs. 47.4 [0-66] months)

  4. Duration of Objective Response, as Determined by Investigator According to RECIST v1.1 Criteria

    Duration of objective response is defined as the time from first occurrence of documented objective response to documented disease progression, as determined by the investigator using RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause. Objective response: PR or CR occurring on 2 consecutive occasions ≥4 weeks apart. PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. CR: disappearance of all target lesions. PD: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study, including baseline; an absolute increase of at least 5 mm in the sum of diameters of target lesions; the appearance of one or more new lesions. Measurable disease defined as tumor lesions with a minimum size of: 10 mm by CT or MRI scan; 10 mm caliper measurement by clinical examination; 20 mm by chest X-ray. For a malignant lymph node, it must be ≥15 mm in short axis when assessed by CT scan.

    Measured: Baseline to death or progressive disease (PD), whichever occurred first (Median [full range] duration of follow-up in Pertuzumab vs. Placebo arms for Primary Analysis: 24.9 [0-41] vs. 21.3 [0-39] months; Final Analysis: 50.4 [0-70] vs. 47.4 [0-66] months)

  5. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Benefit, as Determined by the Investigator According to RECIST v1.1 Criteria

    The clinical benefit rate was defined as best response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) for 6 weeks or longer, as determined by the investigator using RECIST v1.1. CR: disappearance of all target lesions. PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. SD: neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for disease progression, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study. Measurable disease is defined as tumor lesions measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter in plane of measurement) with a minimum size of: 10 mm by CT or MRI scan; 10 mm caliper measurement by clinical examination; 20 mm by chest X-ray. For a malignant lymph node to be considered pathologically enlarged and measurable, it must be >/=15 mm in short axis when assessed by CT scan. The clinical benefit rate was not updated at the final analysis.

    Measured: Baseline up to death or progressive disease, whichever occurred first (Median [full range] duration of follow-up in Pertuzumab vs. Placebo arms for Primary Analysis: 24.9 [0-41] months vs. 21.3 [0-39] months)

  6. Overview of Safety: Number of Participants With at Least One Adverse Event, Severity Determined According to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), Version 4.03

    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product, regardless of causal attribution. The investigator graded all AEs for severity per the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE), Version 4.03; if not listed, the AE was assessed as follows: Grade 1 = mild; Grade 2 = moderate; Grade 3 = severe; Grade 4 = life-threatening/disabling; Grade 5 = death. The investigator determined whether an AE was related to study drug and independently assessed severity and seriousness of each AE.

    Measured: From Baseline until end of post-treatment follow-up (up to 70 months)

  7. Number of Participants With Symptomatic or Asymptomatic Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction (LVSD)

    The number and percentage of participants with symptomatic left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) and asymptomatic LVSD events (defined as a left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] ≥10% decrease from baseline to an absolute value <50%) at any time during the study was summarized by treatment arm.

    Measured: From Baseline until end of post-treatment follow-up (up to 70 months)

  8. Change From Baseline in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30) Score

    The EORTC QLQ-C30 included global health status, functional scales (physical, role, emotional, cognitive, and social), symptom scales (fatigue, nausea/vomiting, and pain) and single items (dyspnoea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). Most questions used a 4-point scale (1 'Not at all' to 4 'Very much'; 2 questions used 7-point scale [1 'very poor' to 7 'Excellent']). Scores were averaged and transformed to 0 - 100 scale, whereby higher scores indicate greater functioning, greater quality of life, or a greater degree of symptoms, with changes of 5 - 10 points considered to be a minimally important difference to participants. A positive value means an increase, while a negative value means a decrease, in score at the indicated time-point relative to the score at baseline (Cycle 1, Day 1).

    Measured: Day 1 of each 21-day treatment cycle up to 28 and 60-90 days (post-treatment [PT] monitoring visits 1 and 2, respectively) after Day 1 of last treatment cycle (up to approximately 3.5 years)

  9. Change From Baseline in EORTC QLQ-Gastric Cancer Module (EORTC QLQ-STO22) Score

    The EORTC QLQ-STO22 is a gastric cancer quality of life questionnaire. There are 22 questions concerning disease, treatment related symptoms, side effects, dysphagia, nutritional aspects, and questions about the emotional problems of gastric cancer (dysphagia, pain, reflux, eating restrictions, anxiety, dry mouth, body image, and hair loss). The questions are grouped into five scales and 4 single items which are related to the symptoms of the disease. Most questions used 4-point scale (1 'Not at all' to 4 'Very much'; 1 question was a yes or no answer). A linear transformation was used to standardize all scores and single-items to a scale of 0 to 100; higher score=better level of functioning or greater degree of symptoms. A positive value means an increase, while a negative values means a decrease, in score at the indicated time-point relative to the score at baseline (Cycle 1, Day 1).

    Measured: Day 1 of each 21-day treatment cycle up to 28 and 60-90 days (post-treatment [PT] monitoring visits 1 and 2, respectively) after Day 1 of last treatment cycle (up to approximately 3.5 years)

  10. Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) of Pertuzumab

    Measured: Post-dose (0.5 hour after end of 30-60 minutes infusion) on Day 1 of Cycles 1, 2, 4, and 8 (1 cycle = 21 days)

  11. Cmax of Trastuzumab

    Measured: Post-dose (0.5 hour after end of 30-60 minutes infusion) on Day 1 of Cycles 1, 2, 4, and 8 (1 cycle = 21 days)

  12. Minimum Serum Concentration (Cmin) of Pertuzumab

    Measured: Pre-dose (0-6 hours before infusion) on Day 1 of Cycles 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 (1 cycle = 21 days)

  13. Cmin of Trastuzumab

    Measured: Pre-dose (0-6 hours before infusion) on Day 1 of Cycles 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 (1 cycle = 21 days)

A Phase 3 study testing 5-Fluorouracil, Capecitabine and Cisplatin in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 172 sites in 32 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 4 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 30 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 172 sites in China, Japan, Italy, Germany, United States and 27 more countries. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 14 Feb 2018). 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?

Overall Survival (time frame: From Baseline until death from any cause (Median [full range] duration of follow-up in Pertuzumab vs. Placebo arms for Primary Analysis: 24.4 [0-42] months vs. 25.0 [0-41] months; Final Analysis: 46.1 [0-70] months vs. 44.4 [0-68] 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 NCT01774786, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 30 Dec 2020.
