Trial summary

For second-line chemotherapy for metastatic gastric cancer, single-agent irinotecan is the standard treatment. Anthracyclines are active but lack well designed investigations. The combination of epirubicin, fluorouracil and cisplatin (or oxaliplatin) are widely used in Europe. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Pegliposomal Doxorubicin and 5-fluorouracil Compared With Irinotecan as Second Line Therapy for Metastatic Gastric Cancer.

For second-line chemotherapy for metastatic gastric cancer, single-agent irinotecan is the standard treatment. Anthracyclines are active but lack well designed investigations. The combination of epirubicin, fluorouracil and cisplatin (or oxaliplatin) are widely used in Europe. However, traditional anthracyclines are more cardiotoxic; and (Pegliposomal Doxorubicin) PLD, as a new liposome dosage form of doxorubicin, has better cardiac safety. Therefore, we designed this phase II trial with PLD and 5-Fu to compare irinotecan monotherapy in the second-line treatment.

Read the detailed description

Patients with metastatic gastric cancer failed to first-line therapy will be radomized to arm A with PLD and 5-Fu and arm B with irinotecan single agent therapy. Both regimens will be treated every 2 weeks until disease progression or untolerable toxicity. Efficacy will be assessed every 3 cycles and safety will be evaluated every cycle.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease control rate (DCR)

    Percentage of subjects with tumor shrinkage reaching complete response (CR), partial response (PR) and disease stabilization (SD).

    Measured: 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    Percentage of subjects with tumor shrinkage reaching complete response (CR) and partial remission (PR).

    Measured: 24 weeks

  2. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documentation of progressive disease or date of death, whichever occurs first. For target lesions (TL), PD was defined as at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of TLs, taking as a reference the smallest SLD recorded since the treatment started, or the appearance of one or more lesions. For non-target lesions (NTL), PD was defined as an unequivocal progression of existing NTLs. Participants were censored at the last date of tumor measurement, the last date in the study drug log, or the date of last follow-up.

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause. Participants were censored at the last date of tumor measurement, the last date in the study drug log or the date of last follow-up.

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Treatment associated toxicities

    According to WHO CTC 3.0

    Measured: 2 years

  5. EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire-Stomach Cancer Specific (QLQ STO22) Questionnaire Scores

    The 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.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Irinotecan, DOXOrubicin Liposome Injection and 5fluorouracil in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.

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 9 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Aug 2020. 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 China. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xiaohui Zhai, MD (862038285497 ext. 862038285497, zhaixh@mail.sysu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease control rate (DCR) (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 24 Aug 2020.
