About this study

Official title: A Phase II Clinical Study of Irinotecan Liposome Combined With Fruquintinib and Sintilimab as Second-Line Therapy for PD-L1-Positive (CPS ≥ 1) Advanced Gastric Cancer

English Translation (for ClinicalTrials.gov Patient-Friendly Summary):

This is a Phase II clinical trial for patients with advanced gastric cancer (stomach cancer). We are looking for participants whose cancer has progressed after one prior standard chemotherapy regimen and whose tumors test positive for the PD-L1 protein.

Read more

This study is testing the effectiveness of a combination of three medications:

  1. Irinotecan liposome: A chemotherapy drug wrapped in tiny fat particles (liposomes) to target tumors more precisely and minimize damage to healthy tissues.
  2. Fruquintinib: An anti-angiogenic medication that blocks the growth of new blood vessels feeding the tumor, cutting off its nutrient supply.
  3. Sintilimab: An immune checkpoint inhibitor that helps the body's own immune system recognize and attack cancer cells.

The primary goal of this study is to evaluate how well this three-drug combination works and to monitor its safety. Participants will receive the study drugs via intravenous infusion or oral tablets according to the protocol. Their progress will be tracked with CT scans and blood tests every three months. Regular follow-up visits will continue even after stopping treatment to monitor long-term outcomes.

Who can participate? Participants must be adults diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer who have progressed after only one prior first-line standard therapy, have PD-L1-positive tumors, and have no severe heart, liver, or kidney disease. Pregnant or breastfeeding women cannot participate.

Possible side effects Potential side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, hand-foot swelling, low blood cell counts (which can increase infection risk), and fatigue. The research team will closely monitor all participants and provide prompt treatment for any side effects.

Important note This study is still in the clinical trial phase. While it offers a potential new treatment option beyond standard care, there is no guarantee that the drugs will be effective for every participant.

For more information, please contact the research team.

What is being measured

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

  1. PFS

    progression-free survival

    Measured: From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. ORR

    Objective Response Rate

    Measured: Every 6 weeks from baseline until disease progression or initiation of subsequent anti-cancer therapy, assessed up to 12 months

  2. DCR

    Disease control rate

    Measured: Every 6 weeks from baseline until disease progression, assessed up to 12 months

  3. OS

    Overall survival

    Measured: From date of first dose until date of death from any cause, assessed up to 12 months.

  4. Safety and Tolerability

    Incidence, severity, and relationship to study treatment of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs), graded according to CTCAE version 5.0, including AEs leading to dose delay, dose reduction, or treatment discontinuation.

    Measured: From date of first dose through 30 days after last dose, assessed up to 13 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Fruquintinib, Sintilimab and Irinotecan Hydrochloride Liposome Injection (II) in people with Stomach Neoplasms and Gastric Cancer, run by Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Science, Shenzhen Center.

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 10 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Junjie Hang (136 8170 9736, katerhjj0000@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PFS (time frame: From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months.). 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 14 Sep 2026.
