Apatinib Mesylate Versus Standard Second-line TKI in the Treatment of Advanced GIST

Apatinib Mesylate Versus Standard Second-line TKI in the Treatment of Advanced Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors: a Randomized, Open, Controlled, Single-center Clinical Study

The goal of this Mesylate apatinib versus standard second-line TKI in the treatment of advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors: a randomized, open, controlled, single-center clinical study is to explore the efficacy and safety of Apatinib compared with second-line treatment in advanced GIST patients with first-line TKI failure. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • To explore the efficacy and safety of Apatinib compared with standard second-line treatment for GIST with advanced first-line TKI failure.
  • To explore the expression level and MVD value of VEGFR2 in GIST, and to explore the relationship between the expression level and the location, size, mitotic image and recurrence risk grading of GIST.

Patients with advanced GIST were randomly included in the trial group and the control group at a ratio of 1:1.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The objectives of this study were as follows:

  1. To explore the efficacy and safety of Apatinib compared with standard second-line treatment of advanced GIST with first-line TKI failure, and to provide high-level clinical evidence for the treatment of late-stage plasmatoma;
  2. Explore the expression level and MVD value of VEGFR2 in GIST, and explore the relationship between the expression level and the location, size, mitotic image and recurrence risk grading of GIST.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients were enrolled voluntarily and signed a written informed consent with good compliance and follow-up;
  2. Age ≥18 years (calculated on the date of signing the informed consent) for both men and women;
  3. Previous first-line TKI (Imatinib/Avatinib) therapy and eventual treatment failure (disease progression or toxicity intolerance during treatment);
  4. Subjects who provide pre-C-Kit /PDGFRA test reporting can provide 10ml blood sample and fresh or archived tumor tissue for genetic testing.
  5. ECOG score: 0 ~ 1;
  6. Predicted survival ≥12 weeks.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Previous molecular targeted therapy other than imatinib/Avatinib for the treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumor;
  2. Toxicity of previous imatinib/Avatinib treatment or other treatments has not recovered or reached NCICTCAE5.0≤ level 1;
  3. Patients with clinical symptoms of ascites or pleural effusion who need puncture drainage or who have received thoracic and ascites drainage within 1 month before signing informed consent, except those who only show a small amount of ascites or pleural effusion without clinical symptoms;
  4. A second primary malignancy within the last 5 years, except for basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix that has been adequately treated;
  5. Gastrointestinal stromal tumor with central nervous system metastasis;
  6. Inability to swallow, chronic diarrhea and intestinal obstruction, with multiple factors affecting drug administration and absorption.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Experimental group
Subjects received Apatinib mesylate
Apatinib Mesylate (Etan) is a new type of small molecule anti-angiogenic agent, which is a small molecule TKI against VEGFR2 independently developed in China and has the effect of anti-C-Kit and PDGFR.
Active Comparator: Control group
Subjects received TKI second-line therapy such as Sunitinib, Imatinib plus, Dasatinib, and Reveratinib.
Second-line TKI drugs

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Progression-Free survival (PFS)
Time Frame: 12 months
Progression-free survival is the time from treatment to observed disease progression or death from any cause.
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame: 24 months
Overall Survival is the time from randomization to death from any cause.For subjects who had been lost to follow-up prior to death, the last follow-up time was usually calculated as the time of death.
24 months
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: 24 months
Objective response rate refers to the proportion of patients whose tumor volume has decreased to a predetermined value and can maintain the minimum time limit, including complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) cases.
24 months
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
Time Frame: 24 months
Disease control rate (DCR) refers to the proportion of patients whose tumors shrink or stabilize for a certain period of time, including complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and stable disease (SD) cases.
24 months
