Dose-ranging Study to Evaluate Antibody Response to G17DT in Patients With Gastric Cancer

August 10, 2015 updated by: Cancer Advances Inc.

An Open, Dose-ranging, Multicenter Study to Determine the Antibody Response to G17DT and Its Safety and Tolerability in the Treatment of Patients With Gastric Cancer

An open, dose-ranging, multiple dose, multi-centre study in patients with Stage I-III or Stage IV gastric cancer. Twelve patients in each of 5 treatment groups were to receive three injections at weeks 0, 2 and 6 with provision for a single booster injection in an extension study period.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

Stage I-III Criteria-

  • Patients aged 18 years or over who had had a macroscopically curative resection for gastric adenocarcinoma.
  • Absence of metastatic disease evident from:

    • physical examination
    • the most recent chest X-ray
    • abdominal CT or ultrasound scan
  • Life expectancy of at least 3 months
  • WHO performance status of 0 to 1
  • Written informed consent given

Stage IV Criteria-

  • Patients aged 18 years or over with Stage IV gastric cancer: carcinoma with the primary tumour invading the adjacent structures and/or involvement of more than 15 regional lymph nodes and/or distant metastases
  • Life expectancy of at least 3 months
  • WHO performance status of 0 to 2
  • Written informed consent given

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of other malignant disease except non-melanomatous skin cancer or in situ carcinoma of the uterine cervix Recurrent gastric cancer following previous surgery Presence of metastatic disease: peritoneal deposits or involved lymph nodes outside the limit of resection
  • Previous use, concomitant use or anticipated use in the period of the study, of any anti-cancer therapies
  • Concomitant use of immunosuppressants, including systemic (ie oral or injected) corticosteroids
  • Females who were pregnant, planning to become pregnant or lactating
  • Patients who were taking part in another study involving an investigational or licensed drug or device in the three months preceding enrolment or during this study
  • Previous G17DT treatment
  • Haematological indicators:

    • Haemoglobin <10.0g/dl
    • White blood cell count <4.0 x 109/l
    • Platelets <100 x 109/l

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame

Time Frame: Up to Week 12
Up to Week 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Survival from date of randomization to death or end of study
Time Frame: Up to Last Patient Last Visit, January 2001
Patients were scheduled to attend follow-up visits every four weeks after completion of the 12-week core period of the study and to continue until the patient was discharged from the study or declined further follow-up.
Up to Last Patient Last Visit, January 2001
Injection Site Reaction
Time Frame: Through Week 12
A physical examination for the presence of an abcess at the injection site was performed on each patient to assess tolerability to treatment at every posttreatment visit from Week 0 to Week 12.
Through Week 12
