Advanced Gastric Cancer Study - R2301

The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, multi-center, phase III study is to assess the safety and efficacy of a Novartis investigational drug in patients with advanced gastric cancer which has progressed after one or two lines of prior chemotherapy. An "investigational drug" is a drug that is being clinically tested and is not approved for sale or use in the United States by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), for the indication in which it is being studied.
Trial phase: Phase 3
Participation Duration: All patients will take two 5mg tablets of an investigative drug or matching placebo once daily in the morning. There is no set number of days for participation duration. Instead, patients will be treated with study drug until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or until the patient withdraws consent.
Protocol Number: CRAD001R2301
