About this trial
There is an unmet medical need to treat people with advanced cancer in the stomach and the junction area where the stomach joins the food pipe. These conditions are known as advanced or stomach (gastric) cancer and advanced gastroesophageal junction cancer (GEJ cancer for short).
Zolbetuximab is an approved treatment in many countries for people with advanced stomach cancer and advanced GEJ cancer. Some people with these cancers have a protein called Claudin 18.2 on their tumor but they do not have a protein called HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) on their surface (HER2-negative). Zolbetuximab works by attaching to the Claudin 18.2 protein on their tumor. This switches on the body's immune system to attack the tumor.
In India, the standard chemotherapies used are mFOLFOX6 or CAPOX. The main aim of the study is to check the safety of zolbetuximab when given with mFOLFOX6 or CAPOX chemotherapies in people in India with advanced stomach or GEJ cancer. It will also check how well zolbetuximab controls stomach cancer and GEJ cancer when given with mFOLFOX6 or CAPOX.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Participant has histologically confirmed gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma.
Participant has radiologically confirmed locally advanced unresectable or metastatic disease within 28 days prior to enrollment.
Participant has radiologically evaluable disease (measurable and/or non measurable) according to RECIST 1.1, per investigator assessment, ≤ 28 days prior to enrollment. For participants with only 1 evaluable lesion and prior radiotherapy ≤ 3 months before enrollment, the lesion must either be outside the field of prior radiotherapy or have documented progression following radiation therapy.
Participant has ECOG performance status 0 or 1.
Disqualifiers
Participant has prior severe allergic reaction or intolerance to known ingredients of zolbetuximab or other monoclonal antibodies, mFOLFOX6 or CAPOX.
Participant has known dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency. (NOTE: Screening for DPD deficiency should be conducted per local requirements.)
Participant has a complete gastric outlet syndrome or a partial gastric outlet syndrome with persistent/recurrent vomiting.
Participant has significant gastric bleeding and/or untreated gastric ulcers that exclude the participant from participation.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Number of participants with adverse events (AEs)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study intervention. This includes events related to the comparator, if applicable, and events related to the (study) procedures.
Number of participants with laboratory assessments abnormalities and/or AEs
Number of participants with potentially clinically significant laboratory values.
Number of participants with vital sign abnormalities and/or AEs
Number of participants with potentially clinically significant vital sign values.
Number of Participants at each Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score
The ECOG scale will be used to assess performance status. Grades range from 0 (fully active) to 5 (dead). Negative change scores indicate an improvement. Positive scores indicate a decline in performance.
Secondary outcomes
Objective response rate (ORR)
Defined as the percentage of participants who have a best overall response (BOR) of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as investigator assessed per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1).
Duration of response (DOR)
Defined as the time from the date of the first response (CR/PR) until the date of progressive disease (PD) as investigator assessed per RECIST 1.1 or date of death, whichever is earlier.
