About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Open-label Study of IMAB362 in Japanese Subjects With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Gastric or Gastro-esophageal Junction (GEJ) Adenocarcinoma

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and antitumor activity of IMAB362 in Japanese subjects with locally advanced or metastatic Gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma whose tumors have Claudin (CLDN) 18.2 Expression. This study will also assess pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of IMAB362.

Read the detailed description

This study consists of two parts (Part 1: Safety; and Part 2: Expansion). First, the subjects will be enrolled in Safety Part with IMAB362 dose-1/2 (Arm A). Then the safety and tolerability of Arm A will be evaluated at Tolerability Evaluation Meeting (TEM). If there are no safety and tolerability concerns, enrollment for the Safety Part with IMAB362 dose-3 (Arm B) and the Expansion Part with IMAB362 dose-1/2 will be opened. For each part, participants who continue to derive clinical benefit and do not have intolerable toxicity from study treatment will be allowed to remain on treatment until treatment discontinuation criterion is met.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Zolbetuximab in people with Gastric Cancer and Gastro-esophageal Junction (GEJ) Cancer, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 1 site in Japan.

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 12 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 2 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in 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.

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?

Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLT) in Safety Part (time frame: Up to Day 22). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03528629, 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 2 Dec 2024.
