Study Details

Zolbetuximab is being studied as a treatment for people with cancer in and around the stomach or cancer where the food pipe (esophagus) joins the stomach (gastroesophageal junction cancer). Most people with this type of cancer have a protein called Claudin 18.2 in their tumor. Zolbetuximab is thought to work by attaching to Claudin 18.2 in their tumor. This switches on the body's immune system to attack the tumor. There is an unmet medical need to treat people with advanced cancer in and around the stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. This study will provide more information on zolbetuximab given by itself and in combination with other treatments in adults with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. The study is currently ongoing globally. People in this study will either be treated with zolbetuximab by itself, with zolbetuximab and chemotherapy, with zolbetuximab and a medicine called pembrolizumab, or zolbetuximab with chemotherapy and a medicine called nivolumab. This study is ongoing, but enrollment in any of the treatment options has been completed. In addition, at this stage of the study, treatment in some of these treatment options has completed. The main aim of this study is to check how well zolbetuximab controls tumors when given by itself. Adults with cancer in and around the stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer can take part. Their cancer is locally advanced unresectable or metastatic and has the CLDN18.2 marker in a tumor sample. Locally advanced means the cancer has spread to nearby tissue. Unresectable means the cancer cannot be removed by surgery. Metastatic means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body. They may have been previously treated with standard therapies. People cannot take part if they need to take medicines to suppress their immune system, have blockages or bleeding in their gut, have specific uncontrollable cancers such as symptomatic or untreated cancers in the nervous system, have a specific heart condition or infections. There are different treatments in the study. People who take part will receive just 1 of the treatments. Treatment will be given in cycles. The treatment is given through a vein; this is called an infusion. Some people with advanced disease will have 1 infusion in 3 week (21-day) cycles. Some people will have several infusions in 6 week (42-day) cycles. Some people with cancer in and around the stomach or gastroesophageal junction who have surgery for their cancer will have a few infusions in 2-week (14-day) cycles. This will happen before and after they have surgery for their cancer. People may receive chemotherapy for up to 6 months. Some people enrolled to received zolbetuximab and pembrolizumab, may have received pembrolizumab for up to 2 years. People will visit the clinic on certain days during their treatment; there may be extra visits during the first cycle of treatment. The study doctors will check if people had any medical problems from zolbetuximab and the other study treatments. Also, people in the study will have a health check including blood tests. On some visits they will also have scans to check for any changes in their cancer. Tumor samples will be taken at certain visits with the option of giving a tumor sample after treatment has finished. People will visit the clinic after they stop treatment. They will be asked about any medical problems and will have a health check including blood tests. After the clinic visits end some people will have a telephone health check every 3 months. The number of visits and checks done at each visit will depend on the health of each person and whether they completed their treatment or not.

Arms

  • Experimental: zolbetuximab (Cohort 1A)
    Participants will be treated with zolbetuximab on a 21-day cycle in which zolbetuximab will be administered as a single agent every 3 weeks until disease progression, toxicity requiring cessation, start of another anti-cancer treatment or other treatment discontinuation criteria are met.
  • Experimental: mFOLFOX6 plus zolbetuximab (Cohort 2)
    Participants will be treated with zolbetuximab and mFOLFOX6 on a 42-day cycle in which zolbetuximab is administered on days 1 and 22, and mFOLFOX6 is administered on days 1, 15 and 29; however, for the first cycle, zolbetuximab will be administered on day 3 (instead of day 1) to allow for pharmacokinetic collection. Participants will receive up to 12 mFOLFOX6 treatments (4 cycles). Beginning at cycle 5, participants may continue on 5-FU and leucovorin or folinic acid along with zolbetuximab for the remainder of the study per investigator's discretion. mFOLFOX6 treatment includes oxaliplatin: intravenous \[IV\] infusion, leucovorin: IV infusion, fluorouracil bolus: IV bolus, fluorouracil infusion: continuous IV infusion.
  • Experimental: Pembrolizumab plus zolbetuximab (Cohort 3A)
    Participants will be treated with zolbetuximab and pembrolizumab on a 21-day cycle. Loading dose of zolbetuximab will be administered at cycle 1, day 1 followed by maintenance dose of zolbetuximab once every 3 weeks (Q3W). Pembrolizumab will be administered to 3 to 6 subjects at a intravenously on day 1 of every 21-day cycle and will be infused 1 hour after the zolbetuximab infusion is completed. Tolerability and safety of zolbetuximab in combination with pembrolizumab will be evaluated during the 3-week dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) assessment period. If this cycle 1 dose is not tolerable, a lower dose of zolbetuximab in combination with pembrolizumab will subsequently be evaluated.
  • Experimental: Zolbetuximab in combination with mFOLFOX6 and nivolumab (Cohort 4A/4B)
    Participants will be treated with zolbetuximab and mFOLFOX6, nivolumab on a 42-day cycle. Cohort 4A: Loading dose of zolbetuximab in combination with nivolumab and mFOLFOX6 on cycle 1 day 1, followed by zolbetuximab in combination with nivolumab and mFOLFOX6 q2w \[days 15 and 29\] (1 cycle = 6 weeks). Tolerability and safety of zolbetuximab in combination with nivolumab, mFOLFOX6 will be evaluated during the 3-week DLT assessment period. If cycle 1 dose is not tolerable, a lower dose of dose zolbetuximab in combination with nivolumab and mFOLFOX6 will be subsequently evaluated. Cohort 4B: Subjects will be treated with the combination of zolbetuximab, mFOLFOX6 and nivolumab at the dose deemed tolerable in Cohort 4A. Subjects will receive up to 12 mFOLFOX6 treatments (4 cycles). For Cohorts 4A and 4B, beginning at cycle 5, subjects may continue on 5-FU and leucovorin or folinic acid along with zolbetuximab and nivolumab for the remainder of the study per investigator's discretion.
  • Experimental: Zolbetuximab in combination with FLOT (Cohort 5)
    Participants will be treated with zolbetuximab \& FLOT for a total of eight 2-week cycles. 4 cycles preoperatively \& 4 cycles postoperatively 6-12 weeks after surgery. Preoperative: Participants will receive zolbetuximab loading dose on cycle 1 day 1, followed by FLOT on cycle 1 day 2. For cycles 2-4, participants may receive zolbetuximab maintenance dose in combination with FLOT, dosed on day 1 of each cycle. However, dosing may be split over 2 days with zolbetuximab administration on day 1 \& FLOT on day 2. Post operative: Participants will receive zolbetuximab loading dose on cycle 5 day 1, followed by FLOT on cycle 5 day 2. For cycles 6-8, participants may receive zolbetuximab maintenance dose in combination with FLOT, dosed on day 1 of each cycle. However, dosing may be split over 2 days with zolbetuximab administration on day 1 and FLOT on day 2. For participants who experience a DLT during preoperative treatment on the loading dose, the postoperative loading dose may be lowered.
