A Study of KC1036 Versus Investigator's Choice of Chemotherapy in Patients With Advanced Esophageal Cancer

A Randomized, Controlled, Open-label, Multicenter Phase III Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of KC1036 Versus Investigator's Choice of Chemotherapy as Third-line Therapy in Patients With Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of KC1036 versus investigator's choice of chemotherapy in patients with advanced recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter phase III trial. Patients with advanced recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that has received PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitors and at least second-line systemic therapy will be randomized at a 1: 1 ratio to receive KC1036 or the investigator's choice of chemotherapy (Irinotecan/Docetaxel/S-1) until confirmed disease progression assessed by the RECIST V1.1 standard, death, intolerable toxicity, initiation of a new anti-tumor therapy, other reasons leading to treatment discontinuation as specified by protocol.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall survival (OS)
Time Frame: Baseline to study completion (approximately 24 months)
OS is defined as the time from the start of randomization to death of any cause.
Baseline to study completion (approximately 24 months)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: Baseline to study completion (approximately 24 months)
ORR is defined as the proportions of patients with a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to RECIST 1.1.
Baseline to study completion (approximately 24 months)
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
Time Frame: Baseline to study completion (approximately 24 months)
DCR is defined as the percentage of participants with a best overall complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) according to RECIST 1.1.
Baseline to study completion (approximately 24 months)
Duration of Response (DOR)
Time Frame: Baseline to study completion (approximately 24 months)
DOR is defined as the time from first documented objective response (complete response (CR)or partial response (PR)) to the date of first documented disease progression (PD) or death.
Baseline to study completion (approximately 24 months)
