About this trial

This is a multi-national, open-label, randomized, seamless phase II/III clinical study of UTD2 combined with fluoropyrimidine- and platinum-containing therapy to evaluate the efficacy and safety in patients with locally advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma untreated with systemic treatment in advanced setting.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Male and female aged ≥ 18 years as of the date of baseline visit.

Participant must have unresectable locally advanced or metastatic GC or GEJ and have histologically/pathologic confirmed predominant adenocarcinoma. The documentation of GEJ involvement can include biopsy, endoscopy, or imaging.

Phase II Study: No restriction on PD-L1 expression. Phase III study: Participant must have tumor with PD-L1 Combined Positive Score (CPS) < 1 by immunohistochemical (IHC). IHC results from site are acceptable.

Disqualifiers

Known HER2-positive tumor (HER2-positive is defined as having an IHC score of 3 +, or IHC2 + and positive HER2 expression by in situ hybridization (ISH) (refer to ASCO/CAP guidelines 2020).

Participants with other malignancies over the past 5 years, except for cured skin basal cell carcinoma, in-situ carcinoma of the cervix, or papillary thyroid cancer.

Participants who have received radiotherapy or other investigational drug or investigational therapy within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of investigational product.

  • Fluoropyrimidine- and Platinum-containing Therapy

    Drug

    CAPOX: Capecitabine 1700 mg/m2/d, po, bid, d1-14,q3w, Oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2, iv, d1, q3w. After completing 6 times (18 weeks) of oxaliplatin treatment, the investigator may decide whether to continue oxaliplatin treatment for up to 8 times (24 weeks) based on the participant's benefits and safety. FOLFOX: Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2, iv, d1, q2w. Folinic Acid 400 mg/m2, iv, d1, q2w, 5-FU 400 mg/m2 IV bolus d1 then 5-FU 2400 mg/m2 IV infusion over 46 to 48 hours, q2w. After completing 9 times (18 weeks) of treatment with oxaliplatin combined with folinic acid and 5-FU, the investigator may decide whether to continue FOLFOX treatment for up to 12 times (24 weeks) based on the participant's benefits and safety.

  • Oxaliplatin

    Drug

    130 mg/m2/d, iv, day1, q3w, oxaliplatin will be given up to 6 cycles

  • Utidelone Capsule

    Drug

    UTD2 po, on d1-5, q3w (dose decided after the phase II)

  • PD-1 inhibitor

    Drug

    Whether to combine a PD-1 inhibitor will depend on the locally approved indications for the PD-1 inhibitor. If the participant's condition meets the locally approved indications for PD-1 inhibitors, the investigator may determine, in accordance with clinical guidelines, that the participant is eligible to receive treatment with UTD2 combined with fluoropyrimidine- and platinum-containing therapy, with or without a PD-1 inhibitor. If a PD-1 inhibitor is administered in combination, tislelizumab (200 mg), or pembrolizumab (200 mg), or nivolumab (360 mg), iv, day1, q3w. Alternatively, the investigator may select the dosage and administration cycle of other locally approved PD-1 inhibitors in accordance with the locally approved package inserts. The PD-1 inhibitor will be given up to 2 years.
