Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Overall Survival Time (OS)
Randomization up to 27.5 months

OS time was measured from date of randomization to date of death from any cause. Participants who were not known to have died on or before the date of data cut-off, OS data was censored on the last date (on or before the cut-off date) the participant was known to be alive.

Overall Survival (OS)
Randomization to death from any cause (up to 37 months)

OS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause. Participants who were alive at the end of the follow-up period or were lost to follow-up were censored on the last date the participant was known to be alive.

Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Randomization to Measured PD or Death From Any Cause (Up To 40 Months)

PFS time was the time from randomization until the date of objectively determined progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1), PD was at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the 20% relative increase, the sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeters (mm). The appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing nontarget lesions was also considered progression. Participants without objectively determined PD who were alive at the end of the follow-up period (or lost to follow-up) were censored on the date of the participant's last complete radiographic tumor assessment; if no baseline or post-baseline radiologic assessment was available, the participant was censored at the date of randomization.

Change From Baseline to Cycle 3 in QT/Corrected QT (QTc) Interval Prolongation in Participants
Baseline, Cycle 3 (1 cycle=21 days)

All electrocardiogram (ECG) tests were performed in triplicate prior to ramucirumab treatment. QT is the interval between the Q and T waves and QTc is the QT corrected for heart rate using Fridericia's formula: QTc = QT/RR\^0.33 where RR is the interval between 2 R waves. Each participant's mean QT/QTc value was calculated for each ECG test during Cycle 3 and compared to his/her mean pretreatment QT/QTc value. The greatest change from baseline during Cycle 3 was reported. QTc prolongation is defined as a QTc exceeding 10 milliseconds (msec) with a lower 90% confidence interval (CI) exceeding 5 msec at any postdose time points per the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) E14 guidelines for non-thorough QT studies (ICH 2005; ICH 2008). Least squares (LS) mean was calculated using a linear mixed model for repeated measures (MMRM) and adjusted for serum concentration.

Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Baseline up to 36 months

PFS was defined as the time from the first day of therapy to the first evidence of disease progression as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.0) or death from any cause. Progressive disease (PD) was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of the target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started in comparison with the measurement of the nadir or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions. In addition, unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions was considered PD. New or existing pleural effusion/ascites required cytological confirmation for PD according to the protocol. Participants who did not progress and who were alive or did not have documented progression or missed ≥2 visits, or had no post baseline assessment were censored at the day of their last tumor assessment.

Number of Participants With Drug-Related Adverse Events
Baseline to study completion up to 48 weeks

Data presented are the number of participants who experienced adverse events (AE) of any grade, AE of Grade ≥3 based on National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 3.0 (NCI-CTCAE v 3.0), serious adverse events (SAE) and AE resulting in death that was considered to be related to IMC-1121B (ramucirumab). A summary of SAEs and all other non-serious AEs, regardless of causality, is located in the Reported Adverse Event module.

Frequently asked questions about Ramucirumab DP

What is Ramucirumab DP used for?

Ramucirumab DP is an investigational monoclonal antibody studied in several solid tumors, including breast cancer, carcinoma of the urinary tract, gastric cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma. It has been evaluated as a treatment in these oncology indications, with clinical trials completed in each setting.

What does Ramucirumab DP target?

Ramucirumab DP targets KDR, also known as vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2). It is an inhibitor of this receptor. By binding to KDR, the antibody is designed to interfere with signaling that supports tumor blood vessel growth.

Who is developing Ramucirumab DP?

Ramucirumab DP is being developed by Eli Lilly and Company, which trades under the ticker LLY. The company is responsible for the clinical program evaluating the drug across multiple cancer types.

What phase is Ramucirumab DP in?

Ramucirumab DP is in Phase 2 development according to the program data. It is an investigational agent and has not been approved by the FDA for the indications studied. The clinical program includes completed trials in breast cancer, urinary tract carcinoma, gastric cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

What clinical trials is Ramucirumab DP in?

Ramucirumab DP has been studied in completed trials including NCT01282463 in urinary tract carcinoma, NCT01234402 in breast cancer, NCT01170663 in gastric cancer, and NCT01140347 in hepatocellular carcinoma. These trials evaluated the drug in combination with chemotherapy or best supportive care.

Is Ramucirumab DP the same as Ramucirumab (IMC-1121B) or IMC-1211B?

Yes, Ramucirumab DP is also known as Ramucirumab (IMC-1121B) and Ramucirumab (IMC-1211B) DP. These alternative names refer to the same monoclonal antibody product. The IMC designations are earlier identifiers used during its development.
