Bemarituzumab in FGFR2b+ Patients with Advanced or Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Stomach or Gastroesophageal Junction, Who Failed At Least One Prior Line of Palliative Chemotherapy
- Conditions
- Metastatic Gastro-esophageal Adenocarcinoma
- Interventions
- Drug: bemarituzumab, trifluridine/tipiracil
- Registration Number
- NCT06680622
- Lead Sponsor
- Institut für Klinische Krebsforschung IKF GmbH at Krankenhaus Nordwest
- Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if bemarituzumab in combination with different standard of care chemotherapies enhance tumor response in patients with FGFR2b-positive advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction. The main questions are:
How do patients respond to these treatments? How is the overall and the progression-free survival rate with these treatments? How is the disease control rate with these treatments? How long is the duration of response and disease stabilization with these treatments? How is the safety with these treatments? How is the quality of life with these treatments?
Patients will be allocated to one of three possible treatment cohorts according to investigator's decision and current standard of care:
Bemarituzumab with cohort 1: irinotecan cohort 2: paclitaxel plus ramucirumab cohort 3: trifluridine/tipiracil
