- Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors
- Interventions
- Drug: DCC-2618Drug: Placebo Oral Tablet
- Registration Number
- NCT03353753
- Lead Sponsor
- Deciphera Pharmaceuticals, LLC
- Brief Summary
This is a 2-arm, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, international, multicenter study comparing the efficacy of ripretinib (DCC-2618) to placebo in patients who have received treatment with prior anticancer therapies. Prior anticancer therapies must include imatinib, sunitinib, and regorafenib (3 prior therapies). Approximately 120 patients were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to ripretinib 150 mg QD or placebo

For prior biological therapies, eg, monoclonal antibodies with a half-life longer than 3 days, the interval must be at least 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug.
-
Prior treatment with DCC-2618
-
Prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment have the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of DCC-2618. Patients receiving adjuvant cancer treatment are not eligible if those medications are potentially active against GIST or excluded per protocol.
-
Patient has known active central nervous system metastases.
-
New York Heart Association class II - IV heart disease, active ischemia or any other uncontrolled cardiac condition such as angina pectoris, clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia requiring therapy, uncontrolled hypertension or congestive heart failure.

-
Venous thrombotic events (eg, deep vein thrombosis) or pulmonary arterial events (eg, pulmonary embolism) within 3 months before the first dose of study drug. Patients with venous thrombotic events ≥3 months before the first dose of study drug on stable anticoagulation therapy are eligible.
-
12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) demonstrating QT interval corrected by Fridericia's formula >450 ms in males or >470 ms in females at screening or history of long QT interval corrected syndrome.
-
Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <50% at screening.
-
Use of proton-pump inhibitors within 4 days prior to the first dose of study drug. Other medications that increase gastric pH, ie, histamine H2 receptor antagonists and antacids may be taken provided they are not administered within 2 hours before or after administration of study drug.
-
Use of strong or moderate inhibitors and inducers of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4, including certain herbal medications (eg, St. John's Wort) and consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice within 14 days or 5 x the half-life (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of study drug.
-
Use of known substrates or inhibitors of breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) transporters within 14 days or 5 x the half-life (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of study drug.
-
Major surgeries (eg, abdominal laparotomy) within 4 weeks of the first dose of study drug. Following major surgeries, >4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug, all surgical wounds must be healed and free of infection or dehiscence.
-
Any other clinically significant comorbidities, such as uncontrolled pulmonary disease, active infection, or any other condition, which in the judgment of the Investigator, could compromise compliance with the protocol, interfere with interpretation of the study results, or predispose the patient to safety risks.
-
Known human immunodeficiency virus or hepatitis C infection only if the patient is taking medications that are excluded per protocol, active hepatitis B, or active hepatitis C infection.
-
If female, the patient is pregnant or lactating.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Progression-Free Survival (PFS) From date of randomization to the earliest date of disease progression or death from any cause [through database cutoff 31-May-2019 (up to approximately 15 months)]. PFS was defined as the time interval between the date of randomization and the earliest documented evidence of the first disease progression based on the independent radiologic review or death due to any cause on initially assigned study treatment, whichever comes earlier, assessed at 26, 39, and 52 weeks.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Time to Tumor Progression (TTP) Based on Independent Radiologic Review From date of randomization to the earliest date of disease progression [through database cutoff 31-May-2019 (up to approximately 15 months)]. TTP is defined as the interval between the date of randomization and the earliest documented evidence of disease progression based on the independent radiologic review.
Overall Survival (OS) From the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause [through database cutoff 31-May-2019 (up to approximately 15 months)]. Overall Survival (OS) was defined as the interval between the date of randomization until the date of death or the date of last follow-up.
Quality of Life & Disease-Related Symptoms - Physical Functioning From the date of randomization (Baseline) to Cycle 2 Day 1 (Month 2) Changes from baseline in European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire for Cancer 30-Item - Physical Functioning. For the ripretinib arm, the minimum and maximum for the outcome were -33 to 53; the placebo arm had a range of -47 to 20. The higher value represents a higher quality of life in disease-related symptoms.
Objective Response Rate (ORR) From date of randomization to the earliest date of disease progression or death from any cause [through database cutoff 31-May-2019 (up to approximately 15 months)]. The percentage of patients with a confirmed complete response or PR (CR: Disappearance of all target lesions and non-target lesions (if present at baseline); all lymph nodes must be non-pathological in size) or partial response (PR: \>=30% decrease in the Sum of Diameters of target lesions and non-target lesions non-PD or NE or none at baseline; or target lesions CR and non-target lesions non-CR/Non-PD or NE) based on the independent radiologic review and during the initially assigned study treatment. To be assigned a status of a CR or PR, changes in tumor measurements must be confirmed by repeat CT or MRI assessments that must be performed at least 4 weeks after the criteria for response are first met.
Quality of Life & Disease-Related Symptoms - EuroQol Visual Analogue Scale From the date of randomization (Baseline) to Cycle 2 Day 1 (Month 2) Change from baseline in EuroQol Visual Analogue Scale. For the ripretinib arm the minimum and maximum for the outcome were -43 to 91; the placebo arm had a range of -68 to 23. The higher value represents a higher quality of life in disease-related symptoms.
Quality of Life & Disease-Related Symptoms - European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire for Cancer 30-Item - Role Functioning From the date of randomization (Baseline) to Cycle 2 Day 1 (Month 2) Changes from baseline in European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire for Cancer 30-item - Role Functioning. For the ripretinib arm the minimum and maximum for the outcome were -67 to 67; the placebo arm had a range of -83 to 67. The higher value represents a higher quality of life in disease-related symptoms.
