Study Details

Brief summary:

The purpose of this study is to characterize the clinical effects of tislelizumab, including pharmacokinetics (PK), activity, and safety assessments in US racial and ethnic minority patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, programmed death-ligand 1(PD-L1)-positive, unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal cancer (GAC/GEA) or esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The study duration will be up to approximately 6 years.

  • Non-sterile males must be willing to use a highly effective method of birth control for the duration of the study and for ≥ 120 days after the last dose of tislelizumab and ≥ 180 days after the last dose of chemotherapy

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient has squamous cell or undifferentiated or other histological type gastric cancer
  • Active leptomeningeal disease or uncontrolled brain metastasis. Patients with equivocal findings or with confirmed brain metastases are eligible for enrollment provided that they are asymptomatic and radiologically stable without the need for corticosteroid treatment for ≥ 4 weeks before study treatment.
  • Patients with evidence of esophageal/bronchial or esophageal/aorta fistula, or complete esophageal obstruction not amenable to treatment.
  • Diagnosed with GAC/GEA with positive human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). Results of the tumor HER2 testing must be known prior to study treatment
  • Active autoimmune diseases or history of autoimmune diseases that may relapse Note: Patients with the following diseases are not excluded and may proceed to further screening:

1. Controlled Type I diabetes
2. Hypothyroidism (provided it is managed with hormone replacement therapy only)
3. Controlled celiac disease
4. Skin diseases not requiring systemic treatment (eg, vitiligo, psoriasis, alopecia)
5. Any other disease that is not expected to recur in the absence of external triggering factors
  • Any active malignancy ≤ 2 years before study treatment, with the exception of the specific cancer under investigation in this trial or any locally recurring cancer that has been treated curatively (eg, resected basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast)
  • Uncontrollable pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or ascites requiring frequent drainage (at least once a week) and/or diuretics within 7 days prior to study treatment (the cytological confirmation of any effusion is permitted)
  • Have clinically significant bleeding (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) ≥ Grade 2) from the GI tract within 1 month prior to study treatment
  • Have a history of gastrointestinal (GI) perforation (CTCAE ≥ Grade 2) and/or fistulae (including prior gastric fistula operation) within 6 months prior to study treatment
  • Have a clinically significant bowel obstruction (CTCAE ≥ Grade 2)
  • Any condition that required systemic treatment with either corticosteroids (> 10 mg daily of prednisone or equivalent) or other immunosuppressive medication ≤ 14 days before study treatment.

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
