About

This is a study of Camrelizumab (SHR-1210) and Apatinb for unresectable Recurrent or metastatic alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-producing gastric cancer or Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma. Camrelizumab combined with Apatinib and standard chemotherapy will be given to treatment-naïve participants; Camrelizumab combined with Apatinib will also be evaluated in participants who have had ≥ 1 line of previous treatment. The primary endpoint is the Overall Response Rate (ORR).

Full description

This study will have 2 cohorts. In Cohort 1, participants who have not received any previous therapy for their disease will receive Camrelizumab and Apatinib in combination with Oxaliplatin and S-1. In Cohort 2, participants who have received at least one prior therapy for their advanced disease will receive Camrelizumab and Apatinib. A Simon two-stage phase II design was used for the sample size Calculation.

Enrollment: 64 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Patients who provided written informed consent to be subjects in this trial

2. Aged ≥18 years

3. Performance status of 0 to 2 on the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Scale

4. Has histologically-confirmed diagnosis of locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma

5. Clinical staging was performed according to enhanced CT/MRI examination (combined with endoscopic ultrasonography and diagnostic laparoscopic exploration if necessary). For patients with locally advanced or metastatic gastric/GEJ cancer in stage III-IV (AJCC 8 edition TNM stage) that could not be resected, the possibility of resectable was determined by MDT

6. For cohort 1, no prior systemic chemotherapy for the treatment of the participant's advanced or metastatic disease (treatment with chemotherapy and/or radiation as part of neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy is allowed as long as completed at least 6 months prior to the diagnosis of advanced or metastatic disease); for cohort 2, received and progressed on ≥1 prior systemic therapy for their advanced disease.

7. Have measurable disease as defined by RECIST 1.1 as determined by investigator assessment

8. Serum AFP > 2 upper limit of normal (ULN) or AFP positive by immunohistochemical staining methods

9. Adequate Organ Function Laboratory Values:

   Hemoglobin ≥90g/L; Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5×109/L; Platelets ≥80×109/L; AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 ULN or ≤ 5 ULN for subjects with liver metastases; Total bilirubin ≤1.5 ULN; Serum creatinine ≤1.5 ULN or measured or calculated creatinine clearance > 50ml/min; Albumin ≥ 30g/L;

10. No serious concomitant disease result in survival of less than 5 years

11. Patients capable of taking oral medication

12. Have good compliance and be able to follow the study protocol

13. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to receiving the first dose of study medication and must be willing to use an adequate method of contraception for the course of the study through 90 days after the last dose of study medication. Male subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use an adequate method of contraception starting with the first dose of study therapy through 90 days after the last dose of study therapy

14. Agree to provide blood and/or tumor tissue sample deemed adequate for PD-L1 and other biomarker analysis.

6. Genetic or acquired bleeding and thrombotic tendencies (e.g., hemophilia, coagulation disorders, thrombocytopenia, etc.)
7. Patients with a history of gastrointestinal perforation, intra-abdominal abscess, or in-three-months ileus
8. Coagulation disorders (International normalized ratio, INR > 2.0 or Prothrombin time, PT > 16s)
9. Organ transplantation requires immunosuppressants, or who have received immunosuppressants/systemic corticosteroids therapy <14 days before first dose for an immunosuppression purpose (> 10mg/day prednisone or other equivalency drugs)
10. Patients have an active ulcer, serious non-healing wound, or bone fracture
11. Patients with hypertension that is difficult to control (systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg) despite treatment with several hypotensive agents
12. Patients have a deficiency of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) will be excluded from cohort 1
13. Have any contraindications for study treatment
14. Patients with a history of prior treatment with Apatinib or any anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1 agent
15. Urinary protein is more than 2+ and 24-hour urine protein > 1.0g
16. Patients with active hepatitis B (HBsAg positive and HBV DNA≥500 IU/ml), hepatitis C (HCV antibodies positive and HCV RNA copies > ULN); with active infection requiring drug intervention
17. Patients with active symptoms or signs of interstitial lung disease
