A Study of AK104/Placebo Plus AK109/Placebo And Paclitaxel in Gastric or Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma

This randomized, multicenter, double-blind, phase 3 study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of cadonilimab (AK104) and pulocimab (AK109) and paclitaxel compared with paclitaxel in patients with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who failed first-line immunochemotherapy.

Primary outcomes

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR)

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (based on RECIST 1.1 criteria).

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    OS is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by investigator

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (based on RECIST 1.1 criteria).

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    ORR is defined as proportion of subjects who have a complete or partial response relative to baseline according to RECIST 1.1 criteria

  3. Duration of Response (DoR)

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    DoR is defined as the duration from the first documentation of objective response to the first documented disease progression(based on RECIST v1.1 criteria) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

  4. Disease control rate (DCR)

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    DCR is defined as the proportion of subjects with CR, PR, or SD (based on RECIST v1.1 criteria).
