About this trial

This anchored matching-adjusted indirect comparison (MAIC) evaluates the relative efficacy of fruquintinib-paclitaxel (using IPD from the FRUTIGA trial, n=703) versus ramucirumab-paclitaxel (using published AgD from RAINBOW-Asia, n=440) in advanced gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma. Baseline characteristics are adjusted via entropy balancing weights. Primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS) analyzed by Bucher method; secondary endpoints include overall survival (OS) and objective response rate (ORR). Sensitivity analyses comprise restricted mean survival time (RMST) analysis and simulated treatment comparison (STC).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Histologically confirmed gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma

Advanced or metastatic disease

ECOG 0-1

Received either fruquintinib + paclitaxel or reference regimen

Disqualifiers

Missing key outcome data

Incomplete baseline characteristics for >2 matching variables

Prior fruquintinib exposure (control arm only)

Trial population

This retrospective MAIC analysis employs individual patient data (IPD) from the FRUTIGA trial (fruquintinib arm) and published aggregate data (AgD) from RAINBOW-Asia (ramucirumab arm), with placebo as the common anchor.
