About this study

Official title: A Phase II Randomized Placebo-Controlled Study Investigating The Combination Of YIV-906 And Sorafenib (Nexavar®) In HBV (+) Patients With Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of YIV-906 plus standard-of-care sorafenib versus those of sorafenib alone as a first-line systemic treatment for patients with Hepatitis B (+) associated advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

YIV-906 (PHY906, KD018) is an immune system modulator. Clinical and preclinical research suggests that YIV-906 could act to enhance the body's immune response to fight cancer and increase the anti-tumor activity of sorafenib and protect and repair the gastrointestinal tract by reducing inflammation and promoting tissue regeneration.

Inspired by a 1,800-year-old traditional medicine still in use today, YIV-906 is a botanical drug candidate, composed of an extract of four herbs and administered in oral capsule form.

The CALM (Combination of YIV-906 and Sorafenib to treat Advanced Liver cancer in a Multi-center study) trial is a multi-regional, randomized, placebo-controlled study.

Read the detailed description

HCC patients with chronic HBV (+) (HBsAg(+)), and Child-Pugh A status will be randomized to either the study arm (YIV-906 plus sorafenib) or control arm (placebo plus sorafenib) at ratio of 2:1. Patients will be stratified according to metastatic status (extrahepatic/vascular invasion vs. none), and their ECOG performance status (0 vs. 1) at randomization.

  • ARM I: Patients receive Placebo + Sorafenib
  • ARM II: Patients receive YIV-906+ Sorafenib

Patients in the study arm will be treated orally each 28-day course with YIV-906 (600 mg (3 capsules) BID) + sorafenib (400 mg BID) according to the following schedule: sorafenib BID daily treatment for 28 days, and YIV-906 BID 4 days on and 3 days off weekly in each course.

All patients will be evaluated and graded for adverse events according to the NCI Common Terminology for Adverse Events, version 5.0 (CTCAE). The Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) will be used to establish disease response or progression.

The RECIST 1.1 and mRECIST will be used in a blinded independent central review (BICR) to determine the study endpoints.

Patients will be evaluated for PFS, TTP, OS, antitumor response every two cycles, and QoL and safety at the beginning of each cycle. Biomarkers are mandatory and will be studied prior to drug administration on day 1 of each cycle. TCM Syndrome Research is optional.

PK is only applicable in China study sites and limited to the first 15 male and 15 female patients. Patients will be randomized to either the study drug arm or the placebo arm (2:1 ratio). PK studied immediately prior to dose administration and at 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, and 12 hours post-dose administration on Day 1 of Cycles 1.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression free survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the period elapsing between the date of date of randomization and the date of either disease progression or date of death, whichever is earlier.

    Measured: At baseline, then at the end of every two cycle (i.e. approximately every 8 weeks), until disease progression or discontinuation from study. Assessed up to 24 months.

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Time to progression (TTP)

    TTP is defined as the period elapsing between the date of randomization and the date of disease progression.

    Measured: At baseline, then at the end of every two cycle (i.e. approximately every 8 weeks), until disease progression or discontinuation from study. Assessed up to 24 months.

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the interval between time of randomization and the date of death from any cause.

    Measured: at randomization, then at the end of every two cycle (i.e. approximately every 8 weeks), until death from any cause. Assessed up to 24 months.

  3. Objective response rate (ORR) in each arm

    The Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) will be used to establish disease response or progression

    Measured: At baseline, then at the end of every two cycle (i.e. approximately every 8 weeks), until disease progression or discontinuation from study. Assessed up to 24 months.

  4. Disease control rate (DCR) in each arm

    DCR will be defined as the proportion of patients achieving either partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) or stable disease (SD).

    Measured: At baseline, then at the end of every two cycle (i.e. approximately every 8 weeks), until disease progression or discontinuation from study. Assessed up to 24 months.

  5. The safety and tolerability of the combination of YIV-906 plus sorafenib as measured by the rate and severity of AEs

    All patients will be evaluated and graded for adverse events according to the NCI Common Terminology for Adverse Events, version 5.0 (CTCAE).

    Measured: Continuously throughout the study until 28 days after treatment discontinuation

  6. Change of quality of life (QoL) in each arm with HCC18

    Each of the domains in the HCC18 will be scored per the assessment's scoring algorithm and summarized using descriptive statistics at baseline

    Measured: At the beginning of every course (4 weeks) until the end of study. Assessed up to 24 months.

  7. Change of quality of life (QoL) in each arm with EORTC-C30
