Neoadjuvant Cadonilimab Plus Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Esophagogastric Junction and Gastric Cancer Trial

Efficacy and Safety of Neoadjuvant Cadonilimab and Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Esophagogastric Junction and Gastric Cancer : a Prospective, Open-label, Single-Arm Phase II Study

For locally advanced esophagogastric junction and gastric cancer, neoadjuvant chemotherapy can downstage T and N stage,treated distant micrometastases early , and finally improve the long-term survival. Combination of perioperative PD-1 antibody and chemotherapy for locally advanced esophagogastric junction and gastric cancer could be a novel therapy to increase response rate and reduce recurrence rate.Cadonilimab, a tetravalent bispecific antibody targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4, is designed to retain the efficacy benefit of combination of PD-1 and CTLA-4 and improve on the safety profile of the combination therapy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cadonilimab Plus Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Esophagogastric Junction and Gastric Cancer.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Locally advanced esophagogastric junction and gastric cancer could be cured by multi-disciplinary therapies including surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy can downstage T and N stage, treated distant micrometastases early before local therapy has begun, and finally improve the long-term survival. However, the therapeutic effects remain unsatisfactory.Cadonilimab (AK104), a novel bispecific antibody simultaneously targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4, was designed to boost anti-tumor activity with a favorable safety profile.This study was a single arm, open-label clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination with Cadonilimab and Chemotherapy for neoadjuvant treatment of resectable locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the gastro-esophageal junction.
