Study to Assess Tolerability and Safety and Antibody Response to G17DT in Gastric Cancer Patients

August 5, 2015 updated by: Cancer Advances Inc.

An Open, Multi-centre Study to Determine the Tolerability, Safety and Antibody Response Resulting From G17DT at 250mcg at Weeks 0, 2 and 6 With a Booster of 125mcg or 250mcg Given to Patients With Stage I - III Gastric Cancer

Open-label, multicenter study to assess 250µg/0.2ml G17DT injection at weeks 0, 2 and 6. At or after week 20 and up to and including week 44. Subjects who raised antibodies to G17DT were given an additional dose of 125µg/0.1ml or 250µg/0.2ml G17DT between weeks 20-44 (study duration 52 weeks).

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who had had curative resection for histologically confirmed Stage I, II, or III gastric carcinoma or carcinoma of the oesophagogastric junciton.
  • Male or female patients over 18 years of age.
  • Patients with a life expectancy of at least four months.
  • Karnofsky index for performance status of >70%
  • Patients must have given written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Gastric or junctional surgery within three weeks of baseline (week 0) or gastric or junctional surgery anticipated in the study period.
  • History of other malignant disease within the previous five years, except non-melanomatous skin cancer or in situ carcinoma of the uterine cervix.
  • Previous use (within the six weeks prior to the screening visit of the study), concomitant use, or anticipated use (up to week 16), of chemotherapy or immunotherapy.
  • Previous use (within the six weeks prior to the screening visit of the study), concomitant use, or anticipated use (up to week 16), of radiotherapy or any other anti-cancer therapy.
  • Previous use (within the four weeks prior to the screening visit of the study), concomitant use, or anticipated use (up to week 16), of immunosuppressants, including systemic corticosteroids.
  • Known immunodeficiency.
  • Females who were pregnant, planning to become pregnant or lactating. Women, who in the opinion of the investigator were of child bearing potential, were to have a negative pregnancy test before study drug administration.
  • Patients taking part in another study involving an investigational or licensed drug or device in the three months preceding enrolment or up to week 16 during this study.
  • Previous G17DT treatment.
  • Haematological indicators:

Haemoglobin <10.0g/dl Neutrophils < 2.0 x 109/l Platelets <100 x 109/l
