A Phase I-II Study of HM781-36B Combined With Paclitaxel and Trastuzumab in HER-2 Positive Advanced Gastric Cancer

A Phase I-II Study to Assess the Safety, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetic Profile of HM781-36B Combined With Paclitaxel and Trastuzumab in Patients With HER-2 Positive Advanced Gastric Cancer

[Phase I] The main objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and determine the Recommended Dose (RD) of HM781-36B(Poziotinib)combined with Paclitaxel and Trastuzumab

[Phase II] The main objective of this study is to evaluate anticancer activity through determination of response rate of HM781-36B(Poziotinib)combined with Paclitaxel and Trastuzumab in patients with HER-2 positive advanced gastric cancer

Besides the main objectives, there are other objectives as follows:

[Phase I]

1. To assess the pharmacokinetic profile of HM781-36B(Poziotinib) combined with Paclitaxel and Trastuzumab
2. To evaluate anticancer activity of HM781-36B(Poziotinib) combined with Paclitaxel and Trastuzumab in patients with HER-2 positive advanced gastric cancer
3. To evaluate PFS(Progression-Free Survival), TTP (Time To Tumor Progression), and DOR (Duration of Overall Response)

[Phase II]

1. To assess the safety, tolerability of HM781-36B(Poziotinib) combined with Paclitaxel and Trastuzumab
2. To evaluate tumor response through determination of disease control rate , PFS(Progression-Free Survival), TTP (Time To Tumor Progression), and DOR (Duration of Overall Response)
