Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a 2 arms study concerning patients with primary GIST who followed an Imatinib adjuvant treatment for 3 years after surgery and who have a high risk of recurrence.

In the first arm, patients will continue Imatinib treatment for 3 more years, allowing to determine if the continuation of this treatment is efficient for disease control, in terms of Disease Free Survival improvement.

In the second arm, patients will discontinue the Imatinib treatment, as standard practice. This arm will allow to determine if the re-introduction of Imatinib at relapse is still an efficient treatment for the control of disease.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms, mostly diagnosed between 55 and 60 years of age, which account for 5% of all sarcomas. Worldwide annual incidence is approximately 12 cases per million people, corresponding to approximately 800 new cases per year in France.

A large majority of GISTs harbour activating mutations in the proto-oncogenes KIT and/or PDGFRA, both coding cell-surface cytokine receptors with tyrosine-protein kinase activity.

Imatinib mesilate (Glivec®, Novartis Pharma SAS) is a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor, leading to inhibition of KIT and PDGFRA signalling pathways. The introduction of imatinib has revolutionised the therapeutic management of GIST patients and has provided an unprecedented demonstration of the clinical benefit of a targeted therapy for patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors. First results from prospective trials conducted with imatinib in GIST patients have demonstrated a 300% increase in median overall survival, and a likely 100% increase in 5 and 10-year survival as compared to cytotoxic chemotherapy.

The successful use of imatinib in the treatment of advanced GISTs and the significant risk of recurrence of advanced GISTs have prompted the investigation of the clinical benefit of imatinib as a post-operative adjuvant therapy. Two prospective randomized Phase III trials have demonstrated that adjuvant imatinib treatment significantly prolong overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) when given for 3 years. To date, imatinib is also indicated in the adjuvant setting after complete resection of primary, localized, KIT-positive GIST at high risk of recurrence. However, the optimal treatment duration remains unclear and it should be determined whether

1. prolonged use of adjuvant imatinib beyond 3 years may enable to reduce the risk of GIST recurrence and to improve overall survival, and
2. imatinib rechallenge is efficient for treating recurrence after completion of 3-year adjuvant imatinib therapy.

This trial is an open-label, randomized, multicenter phase III study aiming to determine the clinical impact of maintaining imatinib treatment beyond 3 years in the adjuvant setting for patients with resected GISTs at high risk of recurrence according to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network Task Force on GIST (NCCN) risk classification.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Imatinib maintenance

Maintenance of Imatinib at the last dose routinely taken by the patient in the 3 years period prior to randomization (either 300 or 400 mg/day). Increase dose up to 800 mg/day if relapse according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. Any relapse/progressive disease at 800 mg/day will lead to Imatinib permanent discontinuation and study discontinuation. In case of toxicity, Imatinib dose will be interrupted or adjusted in accordance with Imatinib Specific Product Characteristics (SPC).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Imatinib maintenance

Intervention Type DRUG

Either 300 or 400 mg/day in accordance with the last dose routinely taken by the patient in the 3-year period before randomization. The treatment will be orally taken at time of meal with a large glass of water

Imatinib Interruption

Treatment corresponding to standard practice : interruption of Imatinib from the day of randomization. Reintroduction of Imatinib at 400 mg/day after first relapse according to RECIST 1.1 criteria; Then increase dose to 800 mg/day after 2d relapse. Any relapse/progressive disease at 800 mg/day will lead to Imatinib permanent discontinuation and study discontinuation. In case of toxicity, Imatinib dose will be interrupted or adjusted in accordance with Imatinib SPC.
