Résumé de l'étude

This is a study to assess the efficacy of Tiragolumab and Tecentriq® (Atezolizumab) compared to a placebo treatment in patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer. Approximately 750 patients will participate in this study worldwide. The study will last approximately 4 years. In this study, patients will be assigned to three treatment groups and will receive either Tiragolumab plus Tecentriq®, placebo plus Tecentriq®, or a double placebo. The group assignment will be determined randomly (like flipping a coin). The probability of being assigned to one of the groups is equal. Neither the patient nor the investigator can choose or know the group.

Patients will receive treatment in 21-day cycles, as described below:

 

Tecentriq® plus Tiragolumab group

Tecentriq®: i.v. (intravenous) infusion over 30-60 minutes on Day 1 of each cycle

Tiragolumab: i.v. infusion over 30-60 minutes on Day 1 of each cycle

 

Tecentriq® plus placebo group

Tecentriq®: i.v. infusion over 30-60 minutes on Day 1 of each cycle

Maladie en cours d'investigation

Esophageal cancer

(BASEC)

Critères de participation
Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 Stage II-IVA according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer/Union for International Cancer Control, 8th edition, inoperable locally advanced disease (medical or surgical treatment declined) Patients with stage IVB, where a cervical or upper thoracic squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus with exclusively supraclavicular lymph node metastases has been diagnosed and who, in the opinion of the treating physician, the multidisciplinary team, or the tumor board, are eligible for definitive chemoradiotherapy, are eligible for participation. Definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy according to regional oncological guidelines for esophageal cancer with the following criteria: Patients with unresectable tumors must have received at least two cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy and radiotherapy that align with the definitive treatment (50-64 Gy), without evidence of radiological disease progression according to RECIST v1.1, as documented by comparison of scans (pre- and post-definitive chemoradiotherapy) before study initiation. Patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus may receive a higher radiation dose (50-66 Gy), according to local oncological guidelines. Inclusion in the study must occur within 1-84 days after the last dose of definitive chemoradiotherapy. Archived tumor samples collected prior to the start of definitive chemoradiotherapy in paraffin blocks (preferably) or ≥15 unstained slides with freshly cut, serial sections Patients whose tumor tissue is not evaluable for PD-L1 expression are not eligible for the study. Patients with detectable Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or detectable HBV DNA should be treated according to treatment guidelines. Patients receiving antiviral medication must have started treatment at least 2 weeks prior to inclusion in the study and should continue treatment for at least 6 months after the last dose of study treatment. (BASEC)

Critères d'exclusion
Previous treatment with antibodies (these are molecules released into the blood). The special feature of antibodies is that each antibody has a specific target. For example, certain antibodies of the CD137 agonist class or immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies, including therapeutic anti-CTLA-4, -PD-1, -PD, target specific proteins on the surface of tumor cells. Any persistent adverse effect (grade >=2) from previous chemoradiotherapy. Patients with irreversible or manageable hearing loss may be eligible. Evidence of complete esophageal obstruction (the hollow tube that runs from the throat to the stomach may be narrowed or completely blocked) that cannot be easily treated. Histology (a microscopic examination of tissue) shows a type of small cell cancer of the esophagus. High risk for the development of an esophageal fistula according to clinical assessment or imaging, such as a history or symptoms of an esophageal fistula or tumor invasion into major vessels or the trachea (the trachea is the tubular organ that connects the larynx to the two main bronchi). Previous surgical removal of the esophagus Positive Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) viral capsid antigen IgM test at screening History of other malignancies (malignant cancers) other than esophageal cancer within 2 years prior to screening. Exceptions are malignancies with negligible risk of metastasis or death (e.g., 5-year survival rate > 90%), such as adequately treated cervical cancer, clear cell skin cancer, localized prostate cancer, ductal carcinoma in situ (a pathological proliferation of cells in the milk ducts of the female breast) or early-stage uterine cancer.
