Cabazitaxel in Asian Patients With Advanced Gastric Cancer Who Failed Prior Chemotherapy

A Phase 2, Multicenter Study of Cabazitaxel Single Agent Administered as a 1-Hour Intravenous Infusion Every 3 Weeks to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Anti-tumor Activity of Cabazitaxel in Patients With Advanced Gastric Adenocarcinoma Who Have Failed Prior Chemotherapy Regimens

Primary Objective:

- To evaluate the anti-tumor activity of cabazitaxel by assessing objective tumor response rate (ORR) at the recommended dose (RD) when administered as a single agent every 3 weeks in patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma who have failed prior chemotherapy regimens

Secondary Objectives:

• To determine the RD of cabazitaxel when administered as a single agent every 3 weeks
• To evaluate safety of cabazitaxel when administered as a single agent every 3 weeks
• To estimate the overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS)
• To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) profile of cabazitaxel in part 1

Patients will be treated until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient's refusal of further study treatment. All patients will be followed during and after the study treatment until death or the end of study, whichever comes first.

Inclusion criteria:

• Histologically or cytologically confirmed unresectable or metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma including adenocarcinoma of gastroesophageal junction, which have failed 2 prior chemotherapy regimens. (For countries where a standard of care has not been established for the 2nd line treatment for advanced gastric cancer, those who failed 1 or 2 prior chemotherapy regimens can be included)
• Signed informed consent

Exclusion criteria:

• Patients who have received >2 prior systemic chemotherapy regimens for advanced gastric cancer.
• For patients entering part 2, those without at least one measurable lesion at baseline according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1 criteria
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status >1
• Age <18 years
• Inadequate organ and bone marrow function
• Prior surgery, chemotherapy, targeted agents, investigational agents, or other anti-cancer therapy within 4 weeks prior to enrollment in the study
• Prior radiation therapy within 6 weeks prior to enrollment (except palliative radiation for a local pain control)
• Previous treatment with cabazitaxel
• Known brain or leptomeningeal involvement of cancer
• Patients with known acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) related illness or known HIV infection requiring antiretroviral treatment.
• Patients with active varicella zoster infection, or known hepatitis B or C infection.
• History of severe hypersensitivity reaction ≥ grade 3 to drugs formulated with polysorbate 80 such as docetaxel
