Lenvatinib With Taxane Drugs Treatment for Advanced Gastric Cancer

Phase 1
Conditions
HER2-negative Advanced Gastric Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT05171530
Lead Sponsor
Ruijin Hospital
Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the safety and efficacy of lenvatinib combined with single-agent taxanes therapy in patients with HER2-negative advanced gastric cancer that have failed at the standard first-line therapy.

Detailed Description

This study is being conducted to establish safety and preliminary efficacy of Lenvatinib plus taxane drugs treatment for HER2-negative advanced gastric cancer after failure of first-line treatment.

The study will adopt the "3+3" dose escalation design. All patients received a standard dose of chemotherapy: paclitaxel 135mg/m2 every 3 weeks or docetaxel 75mg/m2 every 3 weeks. Lenvatinib is exploring four doses of 4mg, 8mg, 12mg, and 16mg, orally once a day every 3 weeks. In the first cycle, lenvatinib was administered 5 days before chemotherapy,once a day. Chemotherapy lasts up to 6 cycles, and lenvatinib continues to be administered until the disease progresses, intolerable side effects, or death.

In order to avoid the possible ineffectiveness caused by the patient being exposed to low doses, the initial dose of 4 mg was enrolled in 1 patient. If there is no obvious dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) after the first dose, the dose escalation adopts a "3+3" method from the 8mg dose: if none of the 3 subjects in the previous dose group has a DLT within 21 days, the next dose study will be carried out; if one subject in the group has DLT occurs, then 3 additional subjects should be added to the dose group; if the 3 subjects have 1 or more DLTs, the trial terminated and the previous dose was regarded as the maximum tolerated dose (MTD).

Lenvatinib with taxane drugs treatment for advanced gastric cancerLenvatinib plus taxane drugsExperimental: Lenvatinib plus taxane drugs The subjects in this arm will receive a Lenvatinib combined with single-agent taxanes therapy. A standard dose of chemotherapy: paclitaxel 135mg/m2 every 3 weeks or docetaxel 75mg/m2 every 3 weeks will be administrated. Lenvatinib is exploring four doses of 4mg, 8mg, 12mg, and 16mg, orally once a day every 3 weeks. In the first cycle, lenvatinib was administered 5 days before chemotherapy,once a day. Chemotherapy lasts up to 6 cycles, and lenvatinib continues to be administered until the disease progresses, intolerable side effects, or death. Subjects will be enrolled serially. For subject safety, the preceding subject must have completed therapy and there is no obvious DLT within 21 days before the next subject can be treated. Interventions: * Drug: Paclitaxel or Docetaxel * Drug: Lenvatinib

Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time interval from the first treatment of the subject to the first recording of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

Overall survival (OS)up to 12 months

Overall survival is defined as the time from signing ICF until death from any cause.
