This is an interventional treatment trial for Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors focused on measuring This is a single-center, prospective, single-arm, open-label phase II study

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age 18 or older

  • Primary mutation at KIT exon 9
  • Imatinib treatment for less than 4 weeks from the first dose at 400 mg per day
  • No prior use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors ((but, patients who have recurrence 6 months after completion of adjuvant imatinib at a dose of 400 mg per day can be enrolled in this study)
  • At least one evaluable disease by RECIST v1.0
  • Resolution of all toxic effects of prior treatments (chemotherapy, surgery, RFA(radiofrequency ablation), radiotherapy, and/or TACE)

  • Adequate renal function, with serum creatinine < 1.5 x ULN (within 1 week prior to the first dose of imatinib at 400 mg per day)
  • Adequate hepatic function with serum total bilirubin < 1.5 x ULN, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) < 2.5 x ULN in the absence of liver metastases, or < 5 x UNL in the presence of liver metastases (within 1 week prior to the first dose of imatinib at 400 mg per day)
  • No other malignant disease apart from non-melanotic skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the uterine cervix or any other cancer except where treated with curative intent > 5 years previously without evidence of relapse
  • Provision of a signed written informed consent

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
KIT exon 9 mutants had poorer survival compared with KIT exon 11 mutants when they were treated with the same dose of imatinib, 400 mg per day, and that patients with KIT exon 9 mutation had better progression-free survival with imatinib treatment at an escalated dose, 800 mg per day, than with imatinib treatment at a dose of 400 mg per day.10,11 Based on the results, imatinib 800 mg per day is now considered the standard dose for the treatment of patients with metastatic or unresectable GIST showing KIT exon 9 mutation in Western countries.
Detailed Description
According to our previous prospective phase II study of imatinib 400 mg per day in metastatic or unresectable GIST, hematologic and non-hematologic toxicities were more frequent in Korean patients compared to the Western studies.7 It may be caused by relatively higher exposure to imatinib per body surface area in Korean patients than in Western population because the weight and height of Korean patients are relatively smaller than Western people. So, we plan to start imatinib at 400 mg per day and then sequentially escalate the doses of imatinib in this study.
