Overview

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of Single Tremelimumab Regular Interval Durvalumab (STRIDE) as first-line therapy in participants with advanced unresectable HCC.

Description

This is a Phase IIIb, open-label, single arm, multicentre study to assess the safety and efficacy of STRIDE as first-line therapy in participants with advanced unresectable HCC who have one of the following:

  1. Child-Pugh score B7 or B8 with a World Health Organisation Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (WHO/ECOG PS) of 0-1 at enrolment, or
  2. Child-Pugh class A with a WHO/ECOG PS of 2 at enrolment, or
  3. Child-Pugh class A with a WHO/ECOG PS of 0-1 and with evidence of chronic main trunk portal vein thrombosis at enrolment

Participants must not have received any prior systemic therapy for HCC. Participants may have previously received locoregional therapy (LRT) but must no longer be suitable for additional LRT. Any local treatment needs to have been completed at least 4 weeks prior to initiation of treatment. The study consists of 4 periods: screening (Day-28 to Day -1), Treatment period, safety follow-up and survival follow-up.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Confirmed unresectable HCC based on histopathological findings (prior histological verification confirming HCC is acceptable), or radiological findings in participants with cirrhosis where histopathological confirmation is not clinically feasible
  • Must not have received prior systemic therapy for HCC
  • Participants expected to live 12 weeks or more
  • At least 1 measurable lesion, not previously irradiated, that can be accurately measured at baseline as ≥ 10 mm in the longest diameter with CT or MRI, and that is suitable for accurate repeated measurements as per RECIST 1.1 guidelines
  • Must not be eligible for LRT for unresectable HCC.
  • Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage B (that is not eligible for locoregional therapy LRT) or stage C
  • Child-Pugh Score classification on liver disease and WHO/ECOG PS at enrolment complying one of the following:
    1. Child-Pugh score B7 or B8 with a WHO/ECOG PS of 0-1 at enrolment, without main trunk portal vein thrombosis.
    2. Child-Pugh class A with a WHO/ECOG PS of 2 at enrolment, without main trunk portal vein thrombosis (ie, ECOG PS 2 participants with main portal vein tumour thrombosis are excluded from this study).
    3. Child-Pugh class A with WHO/ECOG PS of 0-1 at enrolment and with chronic main trunk portal vein thrombosis
  • Participants with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection must be treated with antiviral

    therapy prior to enrolment.

  • Participants with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection must have confirmed diagnosis of HCV characterized by the presence of detectable HCV RNA or anti-HCV upon enrolment
  • Adequate organ and bone marrow function
  • Negative pregnancy test (serum) for women of childbearing potential.
  • Female participants must be 1 year post-menopausal, surgically sterile, or using one highly effective form of birth control
  • Male and Female participants and their partners must use an acceptable method of contraception.
  • Body weight >30 kg

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any evidence of acute or uncontrolled diseases, chronic diverticulitis or previous complicated diverticulitis, or history of allogeneic organ transplant, which, in the investigator's opinion, makes it undesirable for the participant to participate in the study or that would jeopardise compliance with the protocol
  • Refractory nausea and vomiting, chronic gastrointestinal (GI) disease, inability to swallow a formulated product, or previous significant bowel resection
  • History of symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia
  • History of another primary malignancy except for:
    1. Malignancy treated with curative intent with no known active disease ≥ 2 years before the first dose of study intervention and of low potential risk for recurrence, or
    2. Basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or lentigo maligna that has undergone potentially curative therapy, or
    3. Adequately treated carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease
  • Persistent toxicities (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE] Grade >
    1. caused by previous anticancer therapy
  • Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders, autoimmune

    pneumonitis, and autoimmune myocarditis

  • History of active primary immunodeficiency
  • History of leptomeningeal carcinomatosis
  • History of hepatic encephalopathy within the past 6 months or requirement for medications to prevent or control encephalopathy
  • Active or prior documented GI bleeding (eg. esophageal varices or ulcer bleeding) within the past 6 months.
  • Clinical judgement of acute main trunk portal vein thrombosis
  • History of previous, or current, brain metastases or spinal cord compression
  • Known fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), sarcomatoid HCC, or mixed cholangiocarcinoma and HCC
  • Clinically meaningful ascites
  • Participants co-infected with HBV and HCV or co-infected with HBV and hepatitis D virus (HDV)
  • Known to have tested positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or active tuberculosis infection
  • Any concomitant medication known to be associated with Torsades de Pointes
  • Prior exposure to immune-mediated therapy excluding therapeutic anticancer vaccines
  • Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days before the first dose of durvalumab or tremelimumab
  • Receipt of live attenuated vaccine within 30 days prior to the first dose of study intervention" and "Major surgical procedure (as defined by the investigator) or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks of the first dose of study intervention.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?
