Single-arm Study of Selumetinib in Combination With Docetaxel, in Advanced Gastric Adenocarcinoma Patients With Low/High MEK Signature, RAS Mutation or RAS Amplification as a Second-line Chemotherapy

NCT02448290

Description:

This study is a single-arm, phase II study of selumetinib in combination with docetaxel in patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma harboring MEK signature, RAS mutation or amplification as a second line chemotherapy. Selumetinib will be administered orally 75mg twice a day continuously. Docetaxel will be administered as an IV infusion over 1 hour at 60 mg/m2 every 3 week of a 21 days schedule.

             firstline therapy.

               -  The 1st line regimen must have contained doublet 5-fluoropyrimidine and platinum
                  based regimen.

               -  Relapse within 6 months of completion of adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy
                  containing doublet 5-fluoropyrimidine and platinum-based regimen could be
