About this study

Official title: A Study on the Efficiency and Safety of Durvalumab Plus Lenvatinib as First-line Treatment for Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma: an Open, Single Arm, Phase II Clinical Trial

This is a phase II, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Durvalumab plus Lenvatinib as first-line treatment in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.

Read the detailed description

This single-arm, open-label, prospective phase II clinical trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Durvalumab plus Lenvatinib as first-line treatment in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. The primary endpoint is the objective response rate (ORR) according to RECIST v1.1. Safety evaluation will be taken according to CTCAE v5.0. Disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) are secondary endpoints. Multi-omics analysis will be performed to identify potential biomarkers for treatment response.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    The proportion of patients who had tumor response evaluated as CR or PR according to RECIST v1.1 during study.

    Measured: up o one year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Disease control rate (DCR)

    The proportion of patients who had tumor response evaluated as CR or PR or SD according to RECIST v1.1 during study.

    Measured: up to one year

  2. Duration of response (DOR)

    The duration from the first assessment of CR or PR to the first assessment of PD or death of any cause.

    Measured: up to one year

  3. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    The duration from the date of initial treatment to the date of disease progression (defined by RECIST v1.1) or death due to any cause.

    Measured: up to one year

  4. Overall survival (OS)

    The duration from the date of initial treatment to the date of death due to any cause.

    Measured: up to two years

  5. Adverse events (AEs)

    Any adverse events (including type, frequency and severity ) related with treatment drugs according to CTCAE v5.0.

    Measured: up to two years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Durvalumab plus Lenvatinib in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Zhejiang 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 13 inclusion and 16 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 26 Jan 2023. 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 Tingbo Liang, PhD (+86 19941463683, liangtingbo@zju.edu.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: up o one year). 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 26 Jan 2023.
