Study of Nimotuzumab and Irinotecan as Second Line With Recurrent or Metastatic Gastric Adenocarcinoma (NIEGA)

January 9, 2018 updated by: Shen Lin, Peking University

Multi-center Phase II Trial of Nimotuzumab Plus Irinotecan in Patients With High EGFR Expression After Failure of First-line Treatment in Recurrent or Metastatic Gastric Adenocarcinoma（NIEGA）

The trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adding nimotuzumab to irinotecan after failure of first-line treatment in recurrent or metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma with overexpression of EGFR, and search for the effective biomarkers for nimotuzumab efficacy in gastric cancer.

Study Overview

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The sample size was calculated using Simon's 2-stage design. The first stage require at least 4 or more out of 19 patients to have a confirmed partial or complete response (assuming P1 = 0.30, P0 = 0.10, with alpha = 0.05 and beta = 0.2) before proceeding to the second stage, in which additional 36 patients were needed. If a total of 15 or more patients achieve a confirmed objective response, then the primary end-point would have been met. The predicted response rate in this study is at least 30%. Blood and tissue samples are required to collect at baseline, response and disease progression.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 80 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Objective response rate
Time Frame: From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months
CT/MRI will be performed every 2 cycles of treatment by RECIST 1.1.Overall Response Rate is defined as the proportion of subjects with CR or PR in the best overall response
From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
