Обзор

A Randomized, Controlled, Multi-center Phase II Study of Ivonescimab (AK112) plus Paclitaxel versus Paclitaxel with or without Ramucirumab as second-line therapy in subjects with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction（G/GEJ）cancer who failed immunochemotherapy

Подробное описание

This is a randomized, controlled, multi-center Phase II trial (N ≈ 110) conducted in China to assess the safety and antitumor activity of AK112 combined with paclitaxel versus paclitaxel with or without ramucirumab in subjects with advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who failed immunochemotherapy. The study objective was to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of AK112 combined with paclitaxel versus paclitaxel with or without ramucirumab in subjects with advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who failed immunochemotherapy. The primary endpoint was PFS assessed by RECIST v1.1, and the secondary endpoints were ORR, OS, DoR, time to response (TTR), DCR, and incidence/severity of adverse events (AEs) graded by NCI CTCAE v5.0. Eligible patients with progression after PD-1/L1 inhibitor plus platinum chemotherapy will be stratified by peritoneal metastasis (present vs. absent) and randomized 1:1 to: Group A (n=55): AK112 (20 mg/kg IV, D1/D15) + paclitaxel (80 mg/m² IV, D1/D8/D15), Q4W; Group B (n=55): Paclitaxel (80 mg/m² IV, D1/D8/D15) ± ramucirumab (8 mg/kg IV, D1/D15), Q4W. Treatment continues until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or investigator-determined clinical futility.Tumor assessments occur every 8 weeks (±7 days) via RECIST v1.1.

Критерии участия

Критерии включения

• Voluntary written informed consent provided
• Age ≥18 and ≤75 years, regardless of gender
• Histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma
• Prior treatment failure with PD-1/L1 inhibitor combined with platinum-based chemotherapy; no other systemic antitumor therapy allowed (only first-line therapy permitted, with initial immunotherapy duration ≥12 weeks).Note: Patients who previously received adjuvant/neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor plus platinum-based chemotherapy for non-metastatic disease or curative-intent platinum chemoradiotherapy + PD-1 inhibitor for locally advanced or recurrent/metastatic disease are eligible if disease progression occurred within <6 months after the last treatment and no subsequent systemic therapy was administered.
• ECOG performance status of 0-1
• Life expectancy ≥3 months
• At least one measurable lesion per RECIST v1.1. Previously irradiated lesions may qualify as target lesions if evidence of post-radiotherapy progression exists and no alternative target lesions are available.
• Adequate organ function:

Hematology (without transfusions/growth factors for 7 days): ANC ≥1.5×10⁹/L; platelets ≥100×10⁹/L; hemoglobin ≥90 g/L.

Kidney: Serum creatinine ≤1.5×ULN and CrCl ≥50 mL/min; urine protein <2+ or 24-hour urinary protein <1.0 g.

Coagulation: INR/PT ≤1.5×ULN (unless on anticoagulants with therapeutic ranges maintained).

Cardiac: LVEF ≥50%.

• For females of childbearing potential: Negative pregnancy test within 3 days prior to treatment; highly effective contraception required during screening and for 120 days post-treatment. Postmenopausal women (amenorrhea ≥1 year) or surgically sterilized females are exempt.
• For non-sterilized males with childbearing partners: Effective contraception during screening and for 120 days post-treatment.
• Willingness and ability to comply with protocol-specified visits, treatments, and laboratory tests.

Критерии исключения
