A Phase 3, Global, Multi-Center, Double-Blind, Randomized, Efficacy Study of Zolbetuximab (IMAB362) Plus mFOLFOX6 Compared With Placebo Plus mFOLFOX6 as First-line Treatment of Subjects With Claudin (CLDN)18.2-Positive, HER2-Negative, Locally Advanced Unresectable or Metastatic Gastric or Gastroesophageal Junction (GEJ) Adenocarcinoma
A study of zolbetuximab (IMAB362) plus mFOLFOX6 versus placebo plus mFOLFOX6 in subjects with
Claudin 18.2 positive, HER2-negative, locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or
gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
Why is this study being done?
SPOTLIGHT is a new clinical study for adult patients who have any of:
- advanced unresectable gastric or GEJ cancer
- metastatic gastric or GEJ cancer These types of cancers have a unique set of proteins
(called Claudin 18.2). We may be able to use a treatment that targets the proteins to
kill the cancer cells.
For patients with one of the types of cancer listed above, mFOLFOX6 (a combination of three
chemotherapies known as Oxaliplatin, Leucovorin, and Fluorouracil) is a current treatment
option. This study is testing an experimental medicine called zolbetuximab (IMAB362).
Zolbetuximab attaches itself to Claudin 18.2 on the cancer cells causing cancer cell death.
Patients will be assigned to one of two groups by chance and given either:
- zolbetuximab with mFOLFOX6; or
- a placebo with mFOLFOX6 A placebo is a treatment that looks like the experimental
medicine, but contains no medicine.
The goal of the study is to find out if zolbetuximab with mFOLFOX6 helps patients to live
longer by stopping the cancer from getting worse.

The study consists of the following periods: screening; treatment; post-treatment follow up,
safety follow up, long term and survival follow-up.
safety follow up, long term and survival follow-up.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Female subject eligible to participate if she is not pregnant (negative serum
pregnancy test at screening; female subjects with elevated serum beta human chorionic
gonadotropin and a demonstrated non-pregnant status through additional testing are
eligible) and at least one of the following conditions applies:
- Not a woman of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) OR
- WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance throughout the treatment
period and for at least 6 months after the final study drug administration
- Female subject must agree not to breastfeed starting at screening and throughout the
study period, and for 6 months after the final study drug administration.
- Female subject must agree not to donate ova starting at screening and throughout the
study period, and for 6 months after the final study drug administration.
- A sexually active male subject with a female partner(s) who is of child-bearing
potential must agree to use contraception during the treatment period and for at least
6 months after the final study drug administration.
- Male subject must agree not to donate sperm starting at screening and throughout the
study period, and for 6 months after the final study drug administration.
- Male subject with a pregnant or breastfeeding partner(s) must agree to remain
abstinent or use a condom for the duration of the pregnancy or time partner is
breastfeeding throughout the study period and for 6 months after the final study drug
administration.
- Subject has histologically confirmed diagnosis of Gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma.
- Subject has radiologically confirmed locally advanced unresectable or metastatic
disease within 28 days prior to the first dose of study treatment.
- Subject has measurable disease according to RECIST 1.1 within 28 days prior to the
first dose of study treatment. For subjects with only 1 measurable lesion and prior
radiotherapy, the lesion must be outside the field of prior radiotherapy or must have
documented progression following radiation therapy.
- Subject's tumor expresses CLDN18.2 in ≥ 75% of tumor cells demonstrating moderate to
strong membranous staining as determined by central immunohistochemistry (IHC)
testing.
- Subject has a HER2-Negative tumor as determined by local or central testing on a
gastric or GEJ tumor specimen.
- Subject has ECOG performance status 0 to 1.
- Subject has predicted life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks.
- Subject must meet all of the following criteria based on the centrally analyzed
laboratory tests within 14 days prior to the first dose of study treatment. In case of
multiple laboratory data within this period, the most recent data should be used to
determine eligibility.
- Hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥ 9 g/dL. NOTE: subject must not have received any growth factor
or blood transfusions within 14 days prior to the hematology values obtained at
screening. Subjects requiring transfusions to meet eligibility criteria are not
eligible.
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 10^9/L
- Platelets ≥ 100 x 10^9/L
- Albumin ≥ 2.5 g/dL
- Total bilirubin < 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 x ULN
without liver metastases (or ≤ 5 x ULN if liver metastases are present)
