Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a Phase Ib/II study to identify the RP2D of T-DXd combination with Ram and to assess the safety and clinical efficacy of this combined treatment in advanced gastric cancer after first-line treatment. The study will be conducted in two parts: Phase Ib dose escalation study to determine the MTD and RP2D of T-DXd combination and Ram, and Phase II to further evaluate the safety and tolerability of T-DXd combinations with Ram at the RP2D and determine anti-tumor activity.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. RP2D [within first 6 weeks of treatment]

    Maximum Tolerated dose (MTD) and Recommended phase 2 dose as determined by Dose limiting Toxicity (DLT).

  2. PFS rate at 24 weeks [within first 2 4weeks of treatment]

    Defined as the time from start of study treatment until the date of objective disease progression or death (by any cause in the absence of disease progression) Progression is defined in accordance with the RECIST v1.1 criteria. Determination of PFS rate at 24 weeks.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Overall Survival (OS) [6 months after the last treatment of the last subject]

    Defined from the date of treatment assignment until the date of death due to any cause. Any participant not known to have died at the time of analysis will be censored based on the last recorded date on which the participant was known to be alive.

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR) [6 months after the last treatment of the last subject]

    Defined as the proportion of participants with measurable disease who achieve complete response(CR) or partial response(PR), as determined by the Investigator per RECIST v1.1. Data obtained up until disease progression, or the last evaluable assessment in the absence of progression, will be included in the assessment of ORR. Confirmatory scan is needed for the patients with CR or PR after 4 weeks of the first response. Participants who discontinue treatment without progression, receive a subsequent therapy, and then respond, will not be included as responders in the ORR.

  3. Disease Control Rate (DCR) [6 months after the last treatment of the last subject]

    Defined as the percentage of participants who have a confirmed CR or PR or who have SD (without subsequent cancer therapy) after the date of treatment assignment.

  4. Duration of Response (DoR) [6 months after the last treatment of the last subject]

    Defined as the percentage of participants who have a confirmed CR or PR or who have SD (without subsequent cancer therapy) after the date of treatment assignment.

  5. Progression-free survival (PFS) [6 months after the last treatment of the last subject]

    Defined as time from the date of treatment assignment until progression per RECIST v1.1 as assessed by the Investigator, or death due to any cause. Participants who have not progressed or died at the time of analysis will be censored at the time of the latest date of assessment from their last evaluable RECIST v1.1 assessment.

  6. adverse events categorized in accordance with CTCAE 5.0 Criteria. [6 months after the last treatment of the last subject]

    Safety and tolerability
