Objective Response Rate Primary · From randomization until development of radiographic disease progression (up to approximately 12 months).

ORR is defined as the proportion of patients achieving a best overall response (BOR) of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) per the investigators using RECIST version 1.1. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Secondary · From randomization until development of radiographic disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever comes first.

PFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of objectively determined progressive disease (PD) per the investigators using RECIST version 1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 12 months).

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Rate at 6 and 9 Months Secondary · From randomization until development of radiographic disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever comes first.

PFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of objectively determined progressive disease (PD) per the investigators using RECIST version 1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. The proportions of participants who have not experienced PFS events (radiological disease progression or death) at 6 months and 9 months are presented.

Adverse events — posted to ClinicalTrials.gov

Time frame: All adverse events, including all-cause mortality, were assessed from the date of the first dose of ompenaclid or placebo to 30 days following the date of the last dose (up to approximately 12 months).. Reporting threshold: 5%. Adverse-event reports describe events observed during the trial — not all are caused by the drug.

Sponsor's own description

The purpose of this study is to measure tumor response to treatment with ompenaclid (RGX-202-01) in patients with previously treated RAS mutant advanced or metastatic CRC. All patients will receive treatment with FOLFIRI and bevacizumab. In addition, patients will be randomized to receive either ompenaclid 3000 mg BID or matching placebo (herein referred to as Study Drug). Each treatment cycle is 28 days in duration.
