About this study
Official title: An Open-label, Multi-center, Phase II Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetics of MRG002 in Patients With HER2-positive/HER2-low Locally Advanced or Metastatic Gastric/ Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer.
The objective of this study is to assess the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of MRG002 as single agent in patients with HER2-positive /HER2-low locally advanced or metastatic gastric/ gastroesophageal junction cancer.
Read the detailed description
There are two cohorts in this study. HER2-positive and HER2-low patients will be allocated to cohort 1 and cohort 2, respectively. When the 20th, 40th, or 60th patient in each cohort completed at least one post-baseline tumor assessment, the Safety Monitoring Committee will review the safety and efficacy of these patients to determine dose selection, enrollment continuation, study population, and sample size.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing MRG002 in people with Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer and Metastatic HER2 Positive Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer, run by Shanghai Miracogen Inc. at 3 sites 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 11 inclusion and 22 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 23 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 3 sites 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 Program Director (86-21-61637960, clinicaltrials@miracogen.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Objective Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: Baseline to study completion, up to 24 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Feb 2022.
