Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
|
Inclusion criteria: 1. Be willing and able to provide written informed consent/assent for the trial. The subject may also provide consent/assent for Future Biomedical Research. However, the subject may participate in the main trial without participating in Future Biomedical Research. 2. Be ? 18 years of age on day of signing informed consent (or acceptable age according to local regulations, whichever is older). 3. Have a performance status of 0 or 1 on the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Scale. 4. Have histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of locally advanced or metastatic gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma. 5. Be HER2/neu negative and PD-L1 positive. 6. Have measurable disease as defined by RECIST 1.1 as determined by investigator assessment. Tumor lesions situated in a previously irradiated area are considered measurable if progression has been demonstrated in such lesions. 7. Have provided tumor tissue sample deemed adequate for PD-L1 biomarker analysis. a. Notification of eligibility must be received prior to randomization. b. Additional samples may be required if adequate tissue is not provided. 8.Female subjects of childbearing potential should be willing to use 2 methods of birth control or be surgically sterile, or abstain from heterosexual activity for the course of the trial through 180 days after the last dose of study medication. Subjects of childbearing potential are those who have not been surgically sterilized or have not been free from menses for > 1 year. (note: Abstinence is acceptable if this is the established and preferred contraception for the subject.) 9. Male subjects should agree to use an adequate method of contraception starting with the first dose of study therapy through 180 days after the last dose of study therapy. 10. Demonstrate adequate organ function as defined in Table 2. All screening labs should be performed within 10 days of treatment initiation. 11. Female subjects of childbearing potential should have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to receiving the first dose of study medication. If the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required.

Subjects with previously treated brain metastases may participate provided they are stable (without evidence of progression by imaging at least four weeks prior to the first dose of trial treatment and neurologic symptoms have returned to baseline), have no evidence of new or enlarging brain metastases, and are not using steroids for at least 7 days prior to trial treatment. This exception does not include carcinomatous meningitis which is excluded regardless of clinical stability. 7. Has an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in past 2 years (i.e. with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs). Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment. 8. Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving systemic steroid therapy or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of trial treatment. The use of physiologic doses of corticosteroids may be approved after consultation with the Sponsor. 9. Has history or evidence of interstitial lung disease or active, non-infectious pneumonitis. 10. Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy. 11. Has a history or current evidence of any condition (e.g. known deficiency of the enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase [DPD]), therapy, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the trial, interfere with the subject?s participation for the full duration of the trial, or is not in the best interest of the subject to participate, in the opinion of the treating investigator. 12. Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the trial. 13. Is pregnant or breastfeeding, or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the trial, starting with the screening visit through 180 days after the last dose of trial treatment. 14. Has received prior therapy with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 agent. 15. Has a known history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) (HIV 1/2 antibodies). 16. Has known active Hepatitis B (e.g., HBsAg reactive) or Hepatitis C (e.g., HCV RNA [qualitative] is detected). 17. Is currently participating in and receiving study therapy or has participated in a study of an investigational agent and received study therapy or used an inve

Primary Outcome(s)
|
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Response will be assessed throughout the study. The first protocol defined response assessment is scheduled for Week 6, with additional assessments following at 6 week intervals.
|
Secondary Objective: (1) Objective: Evaluate PFS per RECIST 1.1 by local investigator review and PFS per irRECIST by blinded central radiologists? review. (2) Objective: Evaluate Overall Response Rate (ORR), and Duration of Response (DOR), per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by central radiologists? and local investigator review. (3) Objective: Evaluate the safety and tolerability profile.
|
Main Objective: In subjects with advanced gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma treated with pembrolizumab monotherapy or a combination of pembrolizumab with chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone, as first-line treatment in subjects with PD-L1 expression. Objective 1: Compare Progression Free Survival (PFS) per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by blinded central radiologists? review. Objective 2: Compare overall survival (OS).
|
Primary end point(s): Efficacy Endpoints This trial (MK3475-062) will use a dual endpoint of OS and PFS. PFS is an acceptable scientific endpoint for a randomized Phase III trial to demonstrate superiority of a new antineoplastic therapy. RECIST 1.1 will be used to determine the dates of progression as this methodology is accepted by regulatory authorities. Because the treatment assignment is unblinded for pembrolizumab monotherapy, images will be read by central radiologists blinded to treatment assignment to minimize bias in the response.
RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the central vendor will be used as the primary PFS efficacy endpoint. Standard RECIST 1.1 will be used by the local site for treatment decisions until verification of PD by the central imaging vendor. Following verification of PD by central vendor, treatment decision may be made by the adaptation of RECIST 1.1, termed immune-related RECIST (irRECIST )

Secondary Outcome(s)
|
Secondary end point(s): Safety Endpoints The safety objective of this trial is to characterize the safety and tolerability of pembrolizumab monotherapy and in combination therapy in subjects with gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma. The safety analysis will be based on subjects who experienced toxicities as defined by CTCAE criteria. Safety will be assessed by quantifying the toxicities and grades experienced by subjects who have received study treatments, including serious adverse events (SAEs) and events of clinical interest (ECIs).
Safety will be assessed by reported adverse experiences using CTCAE, Version 4.0. The attribution to drug, time-of-onset, duration of the event, its resolution, and any concomitant medications administered will be recorded. AEs will be analyzed including but not limited to all AEs, SAEs, fatal AEs, and laboratory changes.
|
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Safety will be assessed at all study visits conducted either in person or by phone.
