Condition(s) targeted: Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors
Intervention: Imatinib (Drug); Placebo (Drug)
Phase: Phase 3
Status: Completed
Sponsored by: Asan Medical Center Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s): Yoon-Koo Kang, MD, PhD, Principal Investigator, Affiliation: Asan Medical Center
Summary
The objective of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes following resumption of
dosing (re-challenge) with Imatinib plus best supportive care versus placebo plus best
supportive care in patients with advanced/incurable Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors
following failure of prior imatinib and sunitinib therapies.
Clinical Details
Official title: A Prospective, Double Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Phase III Trial of Imatinib Re-Challenge in Patients With Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor Who Had Benefit From Prior Imatinib But Progression From Both Imatinib and Sunitinib
Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Primary Purpose: Treatment
Primary outcome: Progression-free Survival
Secondary outcome: Disease Control RateProgression Free Survival Response Rate Overall Survival(OS) and Time to Progression(TTP) Safety and Tolerability of Imatinib
Eligibility
Minimum age: 18 Years.
Maximum age: N/A.
Gender(s): Both.
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients aged 18 years and older
- Patients with metastatic or unresectable malignant gastrointestinal stromal tumour
which has been histologically confirmed by the detection of CD117 on
immunohistochemical staining or genetically confirmed by the detection of mutation in
KIT or PDGFRα genes on direct sequencing of tumor DNA.
- Prior benefit from 1st line imatinib defined as complete response, partial response,
or stable disease at 6 months after the start of 1st line imatinib
- Patients whose disease has progressed despite at least both prior imatinib therapy
(400mg/day) and then subsequently also failure of prior sunitinib therapy.
- ECOG(Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) performance status 0 ~ 3
- Adequate bone marrow function as defined by platelets ≥ 75 x 109/L and neutrophils ≥
1. 5 x 109/L
- Adequate renal function, with serum creatinine < 1. 5 x upper limit of normal
- Adequate hepatic function with serum total bilirubin < 1. 5 x upper limit of normal,
alanine aminotransferase or aspartate aminotransferase < 2. 5 x upper limit of normal
in the absence of liver metastases, or < 5 x upper limit of normal in the presence of
liver metastases.
- Expected life expectancy of greater than 12 weeks in the absence of any intervention
- No other malignant disease apart from non-melanotic skin cancer or carcinoma in situ
of the uterine cervix or any other cancer except where treated with curative intent >
5 years previously without evidence of relapse
- Written, informed consent to the study
Exclusion Criteria:
- Medical or psychiatric conditions that compromise the patient's ability to give
informed consent or to complete the protocol or a history of non- compliance
- Last dose of radiotherapy received within 4 weeks before the start of study
treatment, excluding palliative radiotherapy
- Obstruction of gastrointestinal tract
- Active gastrointestinal bleeding
- Myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to the study medication, and other
clinically significant heart disease (e. g., unstable angina, congestive heart failure
or uncontrolled hypertension)
- Evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease or any concurrent condition which
in the investigator's opinion makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in
the study or which would jeopardise compliance with the protocol
- Female patients who are pregnant or breast-feeding. Female patients must have had a
negative pregnancy test within one week before starting imatinib.
