In the global Phase 3 RAINBOW study, ramucirumab + paclitaxel significantly improved the overall survival of patients with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma compared with placebo + paclitaxel
Stomach cancer
RAINBOW-Asia is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial conducted in 32 medical centers in China, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand.
Survival prognosis in both groups
Survival prognosis in both groupsFrom March 2, 2017 to June 30, 2020, a total of 440 patients were randomly assigned to the ramucirumab group (n=294) or placebo group (n=146)
The median progression-free survival of ramucirumab and placebo groups were 4.
The occurrence of adverse events
The occurrence of adverse eventsThe most common adverse events of grade 3 and above requiring emergency treatment are decreased neutrophil count (54% vs 39%), decreased white blood cell count (43% vs 29%), anemia (16% vs 17%), high Blood pressure (7% vs 6%) and febrile neutropenia (6% vs <1%)
In summary, the results of this study are consistent with those of the RAINBOW study, supporting the use of ramucirumab combined with paclitaxel as a second-line treatment for patients with advanced gastric cancer or GEJ adenocarcinoma (mainly Chinese patients)
