Treatment of Claudin18.2-Positive Gastric and Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma with LM-302

A Phase III, Open-Label, Multi Center, Randomized Study of LM-302 Versus Treatment of Physician's Choice (TPC) in Patients With CLDN18.2-Positive, Locally Advanced or Metastatic Gastric(GC) and Gastroesophageal Junction(GEJ) Adenocarcinoma.

Phase 3 Interventional LaNova Medicines Limited · NCT06351020

This study tests if a new treatment called LM-302 can help people with advanced stomach cancer that has a specific marker called Claudin 18.2, after they've already tried other therapies.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of LM-302 compared to the treatment of physician's choice in patients with locally advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma that is positive for Claudin 18.2. Participants must have progressed after receiving at least two lines of systemic therapy. The study aims to determine whether LM-302 can provide better outcomes for these patients. The trial will involve measuring the response of the cancer to the treatment using established criteria.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18-80 with confirmed Claudin 18.2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who have progressed after at least two lines of systemic therapy.

Not a fit: Patients with HER2-positive tumors or those who have had other malignancies within the last five years may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could offer a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced gastric cancer who have limited treatment choices.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies targeting Claudin 18.2-positive cancers have shown promise, suggesting that this approach may be effective.
