NCT01140347

Brief Summary

This is a Phase 3 multicenter, randomized study evaluating the safety and efficacy of ramucirumab DP plus BSC as a double-blind, placebo-controlled (placebo plus BSC) comparison. Approximately 544 participants, at least 18 years of age, with Child-Pugh score \< 7 and diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma will be randomized. Participants must have received sorafenib as first-line systemic treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and must have discontinued sorafenib prior to entering the study. Hypothesis: This sample size will allow differentiation of the expected increase in median overall survival (OS), from 8 months in the placebo arm to 10.67 months in the ramucirumab arm. Upon registration and completion of screening procedures, eligible participants with HCC who have disease progression during or following first-line therapy with sorafenib, or were intolerant to this agent, will be randomized to receive either ramucirumab DP or placebo. The treatment regimen will be continued until radiographic or symptomatic progression, the development of unacceptable toxicity, noncompliance or withdrawal of consent by the participant, or investigator decision.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause. Participants who were alive at the end of the follow-up period or were lost to follow-up were censored on the last date the participant was known to be alive.

    Randomization to death from any cause (up to 37 months)

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    Randomization to PD (up to 36 months)

  • Percentage of Participants With Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) [Objective Response Rate (ORR)]

    Baseline to the date of first evidence of confirmed CR or PR (up to 37 months)

  • Time to Radiographic Progression (TTP)

    Randomization to PD (up to 36 months)

  • Change From Baseline in the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT) Hepatobiliary Symptom Index-8 (FHSI-8)

    Baseline, Prior to infusion on Day 1 of Cycle 4, Cycle 10, and Cycle 16 (14-day cycles), and end of treatment (up to 34 months)

  • Change From Baseline in European Quality of Life Questionnaire-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) Health State Score

    Baseline, Prior to infusion on Day 1 of Cycle 4, Cycle 10, and Cycle 16 (14-day cycles), end of treatment (up to 34 months)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) of 0 or 1
  • Child-Pugh score of \<7 (Child-Pugh Class A only)
  • Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) Stage C or BCLC stage B not amenable to locoregional therapy or refractory to locoregional therapy
  • Diagnosis of HCC (excluding fibrolamellar carcinoma) in the absence of histologic or cytologic confirmation
  • There are either clinical, laboratory, or radiographic findings consistent with a diagnosis of liver cirrhosis
  • Has a liver mass measuring at least 2 centimeters (cm) with characteristic vascularization seen on either triphasic computed tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with gadolinium
  • At least 1 measurable or evaluable lesion that is viable \[that is (i.e.), is vascularized\], and has not been previously treated with locoregional therapy. A lesion that has been previously treated will qualify as a measurable or evaluable lesion if there was demonstrable progression following locoregional therapy
  • Previously treated with sorafenib and has discontinued sorafenib treatment at least 14 days prior to randomization. Participants may have experienced:
  • Radiographically documented disease progression during sorafenib therapy or after discontinuation of sorafenib therapy, or

  • The participant has received sorafenib as the only systemic therapeutic intervention. Any hepatic locoregional therapy that has been administered prior to sorafenib is allowed, but not following sorafenib. Radiation to metastatic sites \[for example (e.g.), bone\] following sorafenib therapy is permitted.
  • Resolution of clinically significant toxicity of any anti-cancer therapy to Grade ≤1 by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events volume 4.0 (NCI-CTCAE v. 4.0).

  • Fibrolamellar carcinoma
  • Received any transfusion, blood component preparation, erythropoietin, albumin preparation, or granulocyte colony-stimulating factors (G-CSF) within 14 days prior to randomization
  • Receiving ongoing therapy with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs, e.g., indomethacin, ibuprofen, naproxen, nimesulide, celecoxib, etoricoxib, or similar agents) or other antiplatelet agents (e.g., clopidogrel, ticlopidine, prasugrel, dipyridamole, picotamide, indobufen, anagrelide, triflusal). Aspirin (ASA) at doses up to 100 milligrams/day (mg/day) is permitted

Participants with evidence of portal hypertension (including splenomegaly) or any prior history of variceal bleeding must have had endoscopic evaluation within the 3 months immediately prior to randomization. Participants with evidence of portal hypertension are eligible for study participation if endoscopic evaluation does not indicate esophageal or gastric varices that require immediate intervention or represent a high bleeding risk; however, these eligible participants must receive supportive therapy (e.g., beta blocker therapy) according to institutional standards and clinical guidelines during study participation
  • Central nervous system (CNS) metastases or carcinomatous meningitis
