Definition of Key Study Terms 
Terms 
Definition of terms 
Baseline  
Assessments of subjects as they enter a study before they receive any 
treatment.  
Endpoint  
Variable that pertains to the efficacy or safety evaluations of a study. 
Enroll 
To register or enter a subject into a clinical study. NOTE: Once a subject 
has received the study drug or placebo, the clinical study protocol applies 
to the subject.  
Intervention 
The drug, device, therapy or process under investigation in a clinical study 
that is believed to have an effect on outcomes of interest in a study. (e.g., 
health-related quality of life, efficacy, safety and pharmacoeconomics).  
Investigational 
period 
Period of time where major interests of protocol objectives are observed, 
and where the test drug or comparative drug (sometimes without 
randomization) is usually given to a subject, and continues until the last 
assessment after completing administration of the test drug or comparative 
drug. 
Post investigational 
period 
Period of time after the last assessment of the protocol. Follow-up 
observations for sustained adverse events and/or survival are done in this 
period. 
Randomization 
The process of assigning study subjects to treatment or control groups 
using an element of chance to determine assignments in order to reduce 
bias. 
Screening 
A process of active consideration of potential subjects for enrollment in a 
study. 
Screen failure 
Potential subject who did not meet 1 or more criteria required for 
participation in a study. 
Screening period 
Period of time before entering the investigational period, usually from the 
time when a subject signs the consent until just before the test drug or 
comparative drug (sometimes without randomization) is given to a subject.  
Study period 
Period of time from the first site initiation date to the last site completing 
the study. 
Study Treatment 
Includes zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX 
Variable 
Any entity that varies; any attribute, phenomenon or event that can have 
different qualitative or quantitative values.

Planned Total Number of Study Centers and Location(s):   
Approximately 175 centers globally 
Study Population:   
Subjects with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma whose 
tumors are CLDN18.2-positive, HER2-negative and who have not been previously treated for 
metastatic disease with chemotherapy (first-line).  
For the purpose of this study, CLDN18.2-positive is defined as CLDN18.2 expression in ≥ 75% of 
tumor cells demonstrating moderate to strong membranous staining as determined by central 
immunohistochemistry (IHC) testing. 
Number of Subjects to be Enrolled/Randomized:   
Approximately 500 subjects 
Study Design Overview:   
This global, multicenter, double-blind, 1:1 randomized, phase 3 study will evaluate efficacy of 
zolbetuximab plus CAPOX versus placebo plus CAPOX as first-line treatment in subjects with 
CLDN18.2-positive, HER2-negative locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric and GEJ 
adenocarcinoma. 
PFS as assessed by the Independent Review Committee (IRC) is the primary outcome.  
Secondary outcomes include OS, ORR, DOR, safety and tolerability, HRQoL, pharmacokinetics 
and the immunogenicity profile of zolbetuximab.  Exploratory outcomes include TTP, PFS2, DCR, 
biomarkers, and HRU.  
Approximately 500 subjects will be randomized 1:1 into 1 of 2 treatment arms:  
• Arm A (zolbetuximab in combination with CAPOX chemotherapy)  
• Arm B (placebo in combination with CAPOX chemotherapy) 
Randomization of subjects will be stratified by the following factors:  
• Region (Asia vs Non-Asia) 
• Number of Organs with Metastatic Sites (0 to 2 vs ≥ 3) 
• Prior Gastrectomy (Yes or No) 
Screening: 
The Screening period is 45 days from full main informed consent form (ICF) signature. Retesting 
of lab values is allowed within the 45-day Screening period.  Re-screening outside the 45-day 
window under a new subject number may be allowed once and upon discussion with the Medical 
Monitor. Computerized tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) conducted 
as part of a subject’s routine clinical management (i.e., standard of care) obtained before signing 
the ICF may be utilized for screening or baseline purposes, provided the procedures met the 
protocol-specified criteria and were performed within the Screening period. 
Formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue will be collected for central testing to 
determine CLDN18.2 and HER2 status. (UNIQUE TO CHINA: FFPE tumor tissue will be 
collected for central testing to determine CLDN18.2 status.) 
An optional partial screening ICF may be available to allow central testing of tissue for CLDN18.2 
and HER2 only. (UNIQUE TO CHINA: An optional partial screening ICF may be available to 
allow central testing of tissue for CLDN18.2. only) 
• Archival tumor tissue is preferred.  
o A minimum of 1 FFPE tumor tissue block (preferred) OR a minimum* of 15 FFPE 
unstained slides are required as allowed per local policy.  If slides are submitted, the slides 
should be freshly cut from the FFPE block within the time frame described in the 
laboratory manual.

o If local HER2 results are already available from local testing, a minimum* of 12 FFPE 
unstained slides are required to be submitted to the central laboratory as allowed per local 
policy.  
*If the required minimum number of slides is not able to be submitted, sponsor notification and 
approval is required. 
• If the specimen is insufficient or unavailable, a biopsy may be performed to obtain tumor 
sample.  
o Sponsor pre-approval is required when the sole purpose of the biopsy procedure is to assess 
eligibility for this study.  
o If the required number of slides cannot be provided, the sponsor or designee should be 
contacted for further guidance.  
o (UNIQUE TO CHINA: Five FFPE unstained slides are required, as allowed per local 
policy. The slides should be freshly cut from the FFPE block within the time frame 
described in the laboratory manual.) 
Treatment Period: 
Subjects will be treated with either zolbetuximab (Arm A) or placebo (Arm B) on day 1 of each 
cycle (for all study treatments, a cycle is defined as approximately 21 days) until the subject meets 
study treatment discontinuation criteria or zolbetuximab is commercially marketed and locally 
accessible.  Once the product is commercially marketed and locally accessible, participants should 
complete the study, transition to commercial supply and follow the local label for treatment. 
Astellas is planning to close the clinical study when zolbetuximab (Vyloy) is commercially 
marketed in all countries with active participants and all participants have successfully transitioned 
to an alternative means of drug supply. 
During treatment on study protocol, subjects will receive up to 8 treatments of CAPOX treatment. 
Oxaliplatin is administered on day 1 of each cycle, whereas capecitabine is taken twice daily on 
days 1 through 14.  After a maximum of 8 treatments of oxaliplatin, subjects may continue to 
receive capecitabine taken twice daily on days 1 through 14 of each cycle at the investigator’s 
discretion until the subject meets study treatment discontinuation criteria. (NOTE: An ECG is 
required to be performed and assessed locally prior to every oxaliplatin infusion [before any 
antiemetic treatment] and following completion of every oxaliplatin infusion. ECG should be 
performed up to 48 hours prior to and up to 6 hours following every oxaliplatin infusion. 
Oxaliplatin administration and electrolyte levels should be managed according to investigator 
judgment for subjects with grade 1 or 2 hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia and/or hypocalcemia.)  
Participants who discontinue zolbetuximab and continue to receive CAPOX or components of 
CAPOX should complete procedures on the study and transition to commercially marketed and 
locally accessible product(s) (CAPOX or its applicable components). 
Radiologic imaging will be evaluated every 9 weeks (± 7 days) counting from cycle 1/day 1 
(C1D1) for the first 54 weeks and every 12 weeks (± 7 days) thereafter until subject develops 
radiological disease progression per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 
locally or by IRC or starts other systemic anticancer treatment, whichever occurs earlier. 
If a subject discontinues CAPOX (or oxaliplatin only) due to any reason other than disease 
progression as confirmed locally or by IRC, they may continue on zolbetuximab/placebo at the 
discretion of the investigator provided that all of the following have been met: 
• the subject completed at least 2 cycles of CAPOX treatment; 
• the subject will not receive another systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy or other 
treatment intended for antitumor activity; and 
• in the investigator’s opinion, the subject continues to derive clinical benefit with acceptable toxicity. 
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), radiological 
disease progression will be determined locally and subjects should continue to follow the Study 
Treatment Period see the Schedule of Assessments [Table 11]. Under Protocol Version 6.1 or 
earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), radiological disease progression was

determined by IRC and subjects should continue to follow the Study Treatment Period Schedule of 
Assessments [Table 1]. 
Safety Assessments: 
Safety will be evaluated based on adverse events (AEs), vital signs, ECGs, physical exams, Eastern 
Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status and laboratory assessments.  Severity of 
AEs and laboratory abnormalities will be assessed based on National Cancer Institute-Common 
Terminology Criteria For Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) v4.03.  
Radiologic Imaging and Independent Review Committee: 
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), radiologic 
imaging will be evaluated locally [Table 11]. Under Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original 
Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), radiographic imaging was evaluated centrally by IRC. 
Radiologic imaging will be evaluated at Screening (within 28 days prior to randomization) and 
every 9 weeks (±7 days) counting from C1D1 for the first 54 weeks and then every 12 weeks  
(±7 days) thereafter until subject develops radiological disease progression per RECIST 1.1 by 
local confirmation or IRC or starts other systemic anticancer treatment, whichever comes earlier. 
All radiologically evaluable disease (measurable and/or non-measurable), per local assessment, 
must be documented at Screening and re-assessed at each subsequent radiologic evaluation.  
Imaging will include CT scans with contrast of the thorax, abdomen, and pelvis.  If CT scan with 
contrast is medically not feasible, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be used for imaging. 
Bone scans (or focal X-ray) or brain imaging should be performed if metastatic disease in bone or 
brain is suspected, respectively.  The same mode of imaging should be utilized throughout the 
study unless medical necessity requires a change. For randomized subjects, screening imaging 
should be sent to the central imaging vendor no later than at the time of submission of the first 
on-treatment imaging. All imaging acquired post randomization will be sent to the local or central 
imaging vendor within 7 days of scanning for the blinded IRC assessment of radiological tumor 
response based on RECIST 1.1 [Eisenhauer et al, 2009]. The investigator should make every effort 
to immediately submit radiologic assessments for local or IRC review when progressive disease 
(PD) is suspected.  
Study Treatment Discontinuation and Safety Follow-up Visits: 
Following discontinuation from zolbetuximab/placebo, subjects will have a zolbetuximab/placebo 
Study Treatment Discontinuation Visit within 7 days after the decision to discontinue, and 30-day 
and 90-day Safety Follow-up Visits after their last dose of zolbetuximab/placebo.  If a participant 
transitions to commercially marketed zolbetuximab and has discontinued from the study, the 30- 
and 90-day safety follow up visits are not required.  Once participants have transitioned to 
commercially marketed zolbetuximab, safety assessment and reporting should continue as per post-
marketing product requirements. 
Additionally, if CAPOX (both components) is discontinued on a different day than 
zolbetuximab/placebo, subjects will also have a Study Treatment Discontinuation Visit within 
7 days after the decision to discontinue, and 30-day and 90-day Safety Follow-up Visits after the 
last dose of CAPOX (both components).  The CAPOX 30-day and 90-day Safety Follow-up Visits 
may be conducted by telephone if the subject is unable to visit the study site and will require 
contact for AE/SAE collection only. If a participant transitions to commercially marketed CAPOX 
and has discontinued from the study, the 30- and 90-day safety follow up visits are not required. 
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), the 90-day 
Safety Follow-up Visit will be conducted by phone; see the Schedule of Assessments [Table 11] in 
[Section 13].

Treatment Follow-up Period (for PFS) is discontinued; see the Schedule of Assessments [Table 11] 
in [Section 13].  
Subjects that completed the 90-Day Safety Follow up Visit(s) treatment period under Protocol 
Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1) were eligible for the Post 
Treatment Follow up Period (for PFS) with radiological disease progression determined by IRC as 
outlined in Protocol Version 6.1 [Table 1].  
If a subject discontinues all study treatments (zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of 
CAPOX) prior to IRC-confirmed radiological disease progression, the subject will enter the 
Post-treatment Follow-up Period and continue to undergo scheduled imaging assessments every 
9 weeks (±7 days) (or every 12 weeks [±7 days] if subject has been on study over 54 weeks) until 
radiologic disease progression (i.e., PFS event) per IRC, or until the subject starts any other 
anticancer treatment, whichever occurs earlier.  
If study treatments (zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX) are discontinued due 
to disease progression (PFS event), the subject will enter the Long-term and Survival Follow-up 
Period.  
Long-term Follow-up Period (for PFS2) and Survival Follow-up (for OS) Period: 
Note: Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), the Long 
Term Follow-up Period (for PFS2) and Survival Follow-up (for OS) Period is discontinued; see the 
Schedule of Assessments [Table 11] in [Section 13].  
Subjects that completed the Post-Treatment Follow-up Period (for PFS) under Protocol Version 6.1 
or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1) were eligible for the Long Term Follow-
up Period (for PFS2) and Survival Follow-up (for OS) Period and were followed as outlined in 
Protocol Version 6.1 as outlined in [Table 1]. 
Following disease progression on first-line treatment or start of any other anticancer treatment, 
subjects will be followed in the Long-term and Survival Follow-up Period per institutional 
guidelines, but not less than every 12 weeks.  Subsequent anticancer treatment details, progression 
status and survival status will be collected until PD following subsequent anticancer therapy 
(PFS2) is documented, or the subject starts another systemic anticancer treatment, whichever 
occurs earlier.  Radiologic imaging for PFS2 will be done per local standard of care and read 
locally.  Subjects will continue to be followed for survival status (OS) in the Survival Follow-up 
Period until death (from any cause). 
All post-progression details including subsequent anticancer treatment and date and site of 
progression will be recorded on the electronic case report form (eCRF).  Subject contact by phone 
or other remote method is sufficient during Long-term and Survival Follow-up.  Additional follow-
up contacts may be required per sponsor request for analysis purposes. 
Biomarkers and Other Sampling: 
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), samples for 
pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity and biomarkers, as well as FFPE tumor tissue specimens will 
be collected as outlined in [Table 11]. Under Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol 
Version 1 through 6.1), samples for pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity and biomarkers, as well as 
FFPE tumor tissue specimens will be collected.  Optional pharmacogenomics and post-progression 
tumor samples may be collected for those subjects who sign a separate informed consent form 
(ICF). 
Electronic Clinical Outcomes Assessments (HRQoL and HRU): 
HRQoL and HRU should be assessed during the visit (or up to 48 hours) before any antiemetic or 
drug treatment and before the disease status is discussed with the subject. Effective with 
implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), assessments are discontinued 
[Table 11]. Under Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), 
HRQoL and HRU were assessed at Screening (except for HRU), every 3 weeks, at study treatment

discontinuation and 30 and 90 days post zolbetuximab/placebo treatment in [Table 1].  HRQoL 
will be measured by EORTC QLQ-C30, QLQ-OG25 plus STO22 Belching subscale, GP and the 
EQ5D-5L.  
Independent Data Monitoring Committee and Independent Data Analysis Center:  
An Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) will be established and will monitor the 
ongoing benefit-risk status of study treatment in an unblinded fashion per a pre-defined IDMC 
charter.  The first IDMC meeting will be approximately 6 weeks after the 40th subject enrolled has 
completed or discontinued cycle 2 (6 weeks) and meetings will be conducted thereafter, as defined 
in the IDMC charter.  
An Independent Data Analysis Center will conduct an interim analysis of OS at the same time as 
the final PFS analysis, which will occur when approximately 300 PFS events have occurred. This 
analysis will be utilized by the IDMC to recommend whether the study should be stopped earlier 
than planned if zolbetuximab in combination with CAPOX has a favorable outcome compared with 
placebo in combination with CAPOX.  If the OS interim analysis demonstrates a highly more 
favorable outcome for zolbetuximab in combination with CAPOX, the study may be stopped for 
success.  However, any subject continuing to derive clinical benefit from zolbetuximab/placebo in 
combination with CAPOX, as assessed by the investigator, will be allowed to continue treatment. 
(UNIQUE to JP): In case that zolbetuximab is approved for marketing authorization in Japan, the 
study will continue as a “phase 4 post-marketing study” in accordance with Good Post-marketing 
Study Practice on and after the day of marketing authorization. In this case, “Study” in the 
protocol is read as “Post-marketing study.”

After 8 treatments of CAPOX, subjects may continue to receive capecitabine twice daily 
on days 1 through 14 of each cycle at the investigator’s discretion until the subject meets 
study treatment discontinuation criteria. 
CAPOX should be administered after zolbetuximab/placebo infusion. 
Oxaliplatin: 
130 mg/m2 intravenous infusion on day 1 of each cycle over 2 hours (or longer per 
institutional standard of care) for a maximum of 8 treatments. 
(NOTE: ECG is required to be performed and assessed locally prior to every oxaliplatin 
infusion [before any antiemetic treatment] and following completion of every oxaliplatin 
infusion. ECG should be performed up to 48 hours prior to and up to 6 hours following 
every oxaliplatin infusion. Oxaliplatin administration and electrolyte levels should be 
managed according to investigator judgment for subjects with grade 1 or 2 hypokalemia, 
hypomagnesemia, and/or hypocalcemia). 
Capecitabine 
Administered orally at 1000 mg/m2 twice daily (bid) (total daily dose is 2000 mg/m2) on 
days 1 through 14 of each cycle 
Antiemetic  
Pre-medications  
Antiemetic premedication (prophylactic antiemetics) should be administered prior to 
each study treatment.  
(NOTE: Subjects receiving zolbetuximab do not need to be premedicated for prevention 
of infusion-related reactions [IRRs]; however, subjects should be closely monitored for 
IRRs to facilitate early identification and management.)  
• 
Antiemetic premedication 
o 
IV antiemetic premedication should be initiated prior to treatment, or 
o 
Oral antiemetic premedication should be initiated at a minimum of 
30 minutes prior to zolbetuximab/placebo treatment.   
• 
It is recommended that the prophylactic antiemetic regimen include (but is not 
limited to) the following agents: 
o 
NK-1 receptor blockers  
o 
5-HT3 receptor blockers* 
*To minimize the risk of Torsades de Pointes, administer 5-HT3 receptor blockers with 
caution to subjects who have or may develop QTc prolongation. 
Antiemetic premedication should be administered according to institutional standard of 
care, published guidelines and the respective product package insert(s). 
Corticosteroids: 
• The impact of corticosteroids on the potential efficacy of zolbetuximab is not 
known.  Therefore, consideration should be given to avoid or minimize the use of 
corticosteroids as a prophylactic antiemetic, if possible.  
• For a subject’s first dose of zolbetuximab/placebo, it is recommended that the 
prophylactic use of corticosteroids be avoided.

Concomitant Medication Restrictions or Requirements:   
Prohibited Concomitant Treatment  
The following are strictly prohibited: 
• 
Sorivudine or analogs (during capecitabine treatment) 
• 
Concurrent nonsteroid systemic immunosuppressive agents (for systemic corticosteroids see 
cautionary concomitant treatment below).  
• 
Live vaccines should be avoided during the treatment period in which subject is receiving 
oxaliplatin or capecitabine and up to 6 months after final oxaliplatin or capecitabine dose. In 
cases where a live vaccine is needed for COVID-19 prevention and allowed per local 
regulations, please contact the Medical Monitor for discussion. 
• 
Other systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, herbal medications or other 
treatments intended for antitumor activity.   
o Palliative radiotherapy for peripheral bone metastases is allowed.  
o For gastric bleeding, palliative radiotherapy is prohibited, but 
esophagogastroduodenoscopy with epinephrine injection is allowed. 
• 
Investigational products or therapy other than zolbetuximab. 
Cautionary Concomitant Treatment  
Considerations should be given to avoid or minimize the use of the following concomitant 
medications, if possible, during zolbetuximab/placebo treatment: 
• 
Systemic corticosteroids, because their impact on the potential efficacy of zolbetuximab is not 
known. 
o Systemic corticosteroids should be avoided or minimized while subject is on study 
treatment unless required for management of an emergent medical condition (e.g., severe 
nausea/vomiting or hypersensitivity reaction).  
o For a subject’s first dose of zolbetuximab/placebo, it is recommended that the 
prophylactic use of corticosteroids be avoided. 
o Inhaled, intranasal, ophthalmic, otic and topically applied steroids are allowed. 
o Subjects are allowed to use a physiologic replacement dose of hydrocortisone or its 
equivalent (defined as up to 30 mg/day of hydrocortisone or up to 10 mg/day of 
prednisone), receive a single dose of systemic corticosteroids or receive systemic 
corticosteroids as pre-medication for radiologic imaging contrast use. 
• 
Administer 5-HT3 blockers with caution in subjects who have or may develop QTc 
prolongation. 
• 
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) because of the potential to cause gastric 
ulcers and covert bleeding.  
o In such cases where NSAID use is necessary, the use of NSAIDs with lower gastric 
ulcerogenic potential is preferred and concomitant gastric protection with proton pump 
inhibitors is recommended.  
The following should be avoided or used with caution and closely monitored during capecitabine 
administration:  
• 
CytochromeP450 (CYP) 2C9 substrates (Subjects taking coumarin-derivative anticoagulants 
concomitantly with capecitabine should have PT/INR monitored regularly and anticoagulant 
dose adjusted accordingly). 
• 
Anti-epileptic medications (e.g. phenobarbital, phenytoin and primidone) 
The following should be avoided or used with caution and closely monitored during oxaliplatin 
administration:

• 
Medications known to prolong the QT or QTc interval (refer to https://www.crediblemeds.org 
for a list of these medications) 
Prohibited and cautionary concomitant treatments are described in Appendix 12.4. 
Duration of Treatment: 
Subjects will receive zolbetuximab/placebo until locally or IRC confirmed disease progression, 
toxicity requiring study treatment cessation, start of another anticancer treatment, or other 
treatment discontinuation criteria are met.  
Subjects will also receive up to 8 treatments of CAPOX followed by continued use of capecitabine 
(based on investigator’s judgment) beyond 8 treatments until treatment discontinuation criteria are 
met. 
Study Treatment Discontinuation Criteria:  
A subject who enrolled in the study and for whom study treatment (zolbetuximab/placebo and both 
components of CAPOX) is permanently discontinued for any reason will be assessed as having met 
study treatment discontinuation criteria.  
As overall survival is the key secondary end-point of the study, all subjects will be followed for 
survival after meeting study treatment discontinuation criteria unless the subject withdraws consent 
or is considered lost to follow-up after repeated attempts to contact or if the sponsor discontinues 
the study.  
A subject is free to withdraw from the study treatment and/or study for any reason and at any time 
without giving reason for doing so and without penalty or prejudice.  The investigator is also free 
to terminate a subject's involvement in the study at any time if the subject's clinical condition 
warrants it. 
The subject will be discontinued from study treatment (zolbetuximab/placebo and both components 
of CAPOX) if any of the following occur: 
• 
Investigator determines it is in the subject’s best interest to discontinue study treatment.  
• 
Subject develops radiological disease progression per RECIST 1.1 criteria based on assessment 
locally or by IRC. 
o If the investigator believes that the subject is continuing to derive clinical benefit 
(asymptomatic and/or without worsening of performance status or overall health) from 
study treatment, and an increase in tumor burden is not likely to affect vital organ 
function, the subject may remain on study treatment until an additional radiologic 
assessment is completed (≤ 9 weeks from previous radiologic assessment). 
▪ 
If the additional radiologic assessment locally or by IRC indicates PD per RECIST 
1.1, then the subject must be discontinued from study treatment. 
▪ 
If the additional radiologic assessment locally or by IRC does not confirm the initial 
assessment of PD, the subject may continue to receive study treatment. 
• 
Subject develops clinical progression per investigator assessment and radiologic assessment is 
not medically feasible to confirm radiologic progression due to the subject’s condition.  
• 
Subject starts another systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy or other treatment 
intended for antitumor activity.

• 
Subject starts another investigational agent or device. 
• 
Subject develops unacceptable toxicity. 
• 
Subject has a delay of zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX for > 28 days 
from when the next zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX treatment was 
scheduled to be begin (> 49 days from when the last dose of zolbetuximab/placebo and both 
components of CAPOX treatment began). 
• 
Any clinical AE, laboratory abnormality, or inter-current illness, in the opinion of the 
investigator, indicates continued treatment is not in the best interest of the subject 
• 
Female subject becomes pregnant. 
• 
Significant deviation from the protocol or eligibility criteria as determined by the sponsor. 
• 
Subject declines further treatment. 
• 
Subject is lost to follow-up despite reasonable efforts by the investigator to locate the subject. 
• 
Subject is noncompliant with the protocol based on investigator or Medical Monitor 
assessment.  
Note, if a subject discontinues both components of CAPOX and zolbetuximab/placebo due to any 
reason other than locally confirmed or IRC confirmed disease progression (and is not receiving any 
other anticancer therapy), the subject must be followed according to the protocol-specified 
radiologic assessment schedule until radiological disease progression per RECIST 1.1 criteria is 
confirmed locally or by IRC assessment. 
Study Discontinuation Criteria 
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6) [Flow Chart] all 
subjects should remain in the study through the 90 Day Safety Follow-up and the Post Treatment 
Follow-up Period (for PFS) is no longer applicable; see the Schedule of Assessments [Table 11] in 
[Section 13].  
Participation in the study will end when subjects transition to commercially marketed and locally 
accessible product(s) (both zolbetuximab and CAPOX). Astellas is planning to close the study 
when zolbetuximab (Vyloy) is commercially marketed in all countries with active participants. 
Subjects that completed the 90-Day Safety Follow up Visit(s) treatment period under Protocol 
Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1) were eligible for the Post 
Treatment Follow up Period (for PFS) and were to remain in the study through Survival Follow-up 
Period (OS is a key secondary study endpoint) [Flow Chart] and followed as outlined in Protocol 
Version 6.1 [Table 1].  A subject will be discontinued from the Post-treatment, Long-term and 
Survival Follow-up Periods if any of the following occur: 
• 
Subject specifically withdraws consent for any further contact with him/her or persons 
previously authorized by the participant to provide this information  
• 
Subject is lost to follow-up despite reasonable efforts by the investigator to locate the subject

HRU 
Statistical Methods: 
Sample Size Justification:  
One interim analysis and 1 final analysis are planned for OS, while only 1 final analysis is planned 
for PFS.  The OS interim analysis will occur at the same time of final PFS analysis (after 
pre-specified number of PFS events) and final OS analysis will be performed after the pre-specified 
number of OS events are observed.  The O’Brien-Fleming boundaries as implemented by 
Lan-DeMets (1983) alpha spending method (East®) will be used for the OS interim and OS final 
analyses.  All statistical tests of treatment effects will be conducted at the 1-sided 0.025 level of 
significance unless otherwise specified. 
Approximately 500 subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive zolbetuximab in 
combination with CAPOX chemotherapy (Arm A) or placebo in combination with CAPOX 
chemotherapy (Arm B).  
The planned 300 PFS events during the study will provide 93.4% power to detect a difference in 
PFS between Arm A (zolbetuximab+CAPOX) with the assumption of 9 months median PFS time 
and Arm B (placebo+CAPOX) with the assumption of 6 months median PFS time 
(hazard ratio = 0.67) at the overall 1-sided 0.025 significance level.  Similarly, the planned 386 OS 
events during the study will provide 80% power to detect a difference in OS between Arm A 
(zolbetuximab+CAPOX) with the assumption of 14.7 months median survival time and Arm B 
(placebo+CAPOX) with the assumption of 11 months median OS time (hazard ratio = 0.75) at the 
overall 1-sided 0.025 significance level.

Analysis Populations: 
• 
The full analysis set (FAS) will include all subjects who are randomized to 1 of the treatment 
arms.  Subjects will be analyzed according to the treatment arm to which they were 
randomized to.  The FAS will be used for description of baseline characteristics and all 
efficacy analyses.  
• 
The safety analysis set (SAF) will contain all subjects who received at least 1 dose of any study 
drug (zolbetuximab/placebo/CAPOX).  The SAF will be used for all safety analyses.  Subjects 
will be analyzed according to the actual treatment they received. 
• 
The pharmacokinetic analysis set (PKAS) will consist of the subset of the SAF for which at 
least one zolbetuximab concentration measurement is available.  Additional subjects may be 
excluded from the PKAS at the discretion of the pharmacokineticist.  The PKAS will be used 
for description of pharmacokinetic data. 
Efficacy Analyses: 
All efficacy analyses will be performed using FAS.   
Primary Efficacy Endpoint: 
The primary efficacy endpoint of PFS will be analyzed using the stratified Log Rank Test with 
stratification factors to be specified in the SAP. 
The hypothesis testing on the primary analysis will be performed at an overall 1-sided 
0.025 significance level to test the null hypothesis that PFS is not prolonged in Arm A compared to 
Arm B versus the alternative hypothesis that PFS is prolonged in Arm A compared to Arm B. 
Estimates of the treatment effect will be expressed as Hazard Ratio using a stratified Cox model, 
including 95% Confidence Interval.  
The sensitivity analysis for the primary efficacy endpoint will also be performed.   
Secondary Endpoints: 
The key secondary efficacy endpoint of OS will be analyzed using the stratified Log Rank Test 
with the same strata used in the analysis of PFS.  To maintain the overall Type I error rate at the 
0.025 significance level, the hypothesis testing on OS will be performed only if the null hypothesis 
on the primary analysis is rejected at the overall 1-sided 0.025 significance level. The key 
secondary TTCD endpoints of PF, OG25 Pain, and GHS/QoL will be analyzed using the same 
method as OS and PFS. 
The secondary efficacy endpoint of ORR will be analyzed using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test 
to control for the same strata used in the analysis of PFS and OS.  The secondary efficacy endpoint 
of DOR will be analyzed similarly to PFS and OS.  
The secondary HRQoL endpoints collected via the EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-OG25 plus 
STO22 Belching subscale, GP and EQ-5D-5L will be analyzed with summary of change from 
baseline over time through the end of CAPOX treatment and inferential methods.  Detailed 
analysis of HRQoL endpoints will be provided in the statistical analysis plan.

Exploratory Endpoints:  
TTP and PFS2 will be analyzed in a similar way as PFS.  However, in TTP analysis, deaths are not 
counted as events; rather, deaths are censored. DCR will be analyzed similarly as ORR.  The HRU 
variables will be summarized by treatment arm.  
Safety Analyses: 
The safety evaluation will be based on AEs, clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, ECG and ECOG 
status.  Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize safety data.  All safety data will be 
summarized by treatment received (SAF). 
All summaries of AEs will include only treatment-emergent events unless otherwise stated. AEs 
will be categorized by SOC and preferred term using MedDRA and will be graded for severity 
according to the NCI-CTCAE v4.03.  
Pharmacokinetics: 
Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize serum concentrations of zolbetuximab. The 
potential relationship between zolbetuximab immunogenicity and zolbetuximab pharmacokinetics, 
efficacy, and safety profile may be assessed.  Additional model-based analyses may be performed 
and reported separately. 
Biomarkers: 
Biomarkers will be summarized graphically or descriptively, and summary statistics may be 
tabulated. Associations between biomarkers and clinical (e.g., efficacy, safety or 
pharmacodynamics, or pharmacokinetics) measures may be performed on subjects who have 
sufficient baseline and on-study treatment measurements to provide interpretable results for 
specific parameters. 
Interim Analyses:  
To evaluate whether zolbetuximab + CAPOX (Arm A) is beneficial compared to placebo + 
CAPOX (Arm B) while the study is ongoing, a formal OS interim analysis is planned when the 
final PFS analysis occurs with the pre-specified number of PFS events.  A group sequential design 
using the O’Brien-Fleming type alpha-spending function [Lan & DeMets, 1983] for efficacy will 
be utilized to control the overall 1-sided 0.025 significance level (East®) for the OS analyses.  
The IDMC may recommend terminating the study for favorable results at the formal efficacy 
interim analysis using OS.  In the case of favorable results, the 1-sided significance level for 
superiority is 0.0074, assuming about 70% of the target number of OS events is obtained, for the 
interim OS analysis and 0.0228 for the final OS analysis.  (Note: The OS significance level will be 
adjusted depending on the number of OS event at the time of interim analysis).  If the 1-sided 
P value of the interim analysis is less than the significance level (and PFS is also significant at 
1-sided 0.025 alpha), the IDMC may recommend terminating the study for success.  If the study is 
not stopped after the interim analysis, a final OS analysis will occur after 100% of the planned 
death events have been observed. 
Details for the interim analyses, monitoring subject safety, enrollment rates and event (PFS/death) 
rates will be contained in the IDMC Charter.  Recommendations regarding study conduct will be 
made by the IDMC based on their assessment of these rates.

4. Randomization: After confirmation of eligibility, the blinded site user will perform the randomization IRT transaction.  The unblinded pharmacist/designee will be notified by the 
IRT system about the randomly assigned treatment.  Randomization may be performed prior to C1D1. If C1D1 cannot be performed within 5 calendar days from Randomization, 
please contact the Medical Monitor for discussion. Details of infusion preparation and storage requirements are defined in the Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines. 
5. Antiemetic Pretreatment: Antiemetic premedication (prophylactic antiemetics) should be administered prior to each study treatment. IV antiemetic premedication should be 
initiated prior to treatment, or oral antiemetic premedication should be initiated at a minimum of 30 minutes prior to treatment. Antiemetic premedication should be given 
according to institutional standard of care, published guidelines and the respective product package insert(s). For further details, see [Section 5.1.1.2 Antiemetics]. 
6. Zolbetuximab/placebo will be administered as a minimum 2-hour intravenous infusion every 3 weeks starting on C1D1. Please refer to Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines 
for more detailed information. Zolbetuximab/placebo should be administered prior to CAPOX.  For further details, see [Section 5.1.1.1 Zolbetuximab/Placebo]. 
7. Post-infusion Observation Period: Following the first dose of zolbetuximab/placebo on C1D1, the subject must be observed for 2 hours post zolbetuximab/placebo infusion.  The 
post-infusion observation period can be conducted during the CAPOX administration.  If any ≥ grade 2 AEs are observed during infusion or during the post-infusion observation 
period, subsequent zolbetuximab/placebo infusion times should be extended and subjects should continue to be observed for 2 hours post zolbetuximab/placebo infusion.  If the 
subject does not develop any grade ≥ 2 AEs, the subject should be observed for 1 hour post-infusion for their subsequent zolbetuximab/placebo infusions.  The subject should be 
instructed to notify site personnel if they develop any AEs during this observation time period. In the event of an IRR with features of anaphylaxis (regardless of grade) or grade 3 
or 4 IRR, blood samples for cytokine/chemokine panel and serum total tryptase level (levels typically peak within 3 hours after the onset of symptoms) should be collected once 
the subject has stabilized, for shipment to the central laboratory. See Observation Period following zolbetuximab/placebo infusion [Section 5.4.2] for further details.  
8. CAPOX is a combination of oxaliplatin intravenous infusion and capecitabine tablets and will be administered starting at C1D1 for up to 8 treatments. See [Section 5.1.1.3]. 
9. Physical Exam: should include height (at Screening only), weight and ECOG performance status.  A full physical exam is required at Screening.  The physical exam only needs to 
be repeated on C1D1 if clinically significant changes from screening are observed (in the opinion of the investigator). For all cycles, the physical examination, weight and ECOG 
performance status assessments can be completed up to 48 hours prior to zolbetuximab/placebo administration. Targeted (symptom driven) physical exams should be conducted 
every 3 weeks on day 1 of each cycle.  For further details, see [Section 5.4.4 Physical Examination] 
10. Vital signs (pulse, blood pressure, temperature) should be taken during every visit at the following time points (see [Section 5.4.1 Vital Signs]): 
o Predose at every visit  
o C1D1: Every 30 (±10) minutes during zolbetuximab/placebo infusion  
o If the subject did not develop any ≥ grade 2 AEs during the C1D1 zolbetuximab/placebo infusion or Post-infusion Observation Period, the site may do the following for 
subsequent zolbetuximab/placebo infusions: 
▪ 
The post-infusion observation period can be 1 hour for subsequent visits after C1D1 
▪ 
The vital signs can be assessed every 60 minutes for subsequent visits after C1D1 
o Every 60 (±10) minutes post zolbetuximab/placebo infusion during the Post-infusion Observation Period (for 1 or 2 hours. See footnote 7) 
o Unscheduled if clinically indicated

11. ECGs: ECGs will be locally assessed.  When collected on the same day, ECG should be collected prior to pharmacokinetic samples.  For further details, see [Section 5.4.5 
Electrocardiogram].  A single ECG will be performed at the following time points: 
o Screening 
o Up to 48 hours prior to every oxaliplatin infusion (before any antiemetic treatment administration) 
o Up to 6 hours following completion of every oxaliplatin infusion 
o Zolbetuximab/placebo Discontinuation Visit 
o Zolbetuximab/placebo 30-day Follow-up Visit 
o If clinically indicated or per local requirements 
12. Imaging Assessments: Radiologic imaging will be evaluated at Screening (must be conducted within 28 days prior to randomization) and every 9 weeks (± 7 days) counting from 
C1D1 for the first 54 weeks and then every 12 weeks (± 7 days) thereafter until subject develops radiological disease progression per RECIST 1.1 by IRC or starts other systemic 
anticancer treatment, whichever comes earlier.  Imaging schedule should be maintained regardless of treatment delay.  Imaging will include CT scans with contrast of the thorax, 
abdomen, and pelvis.  If CT scan with contrast is medically not feasible, MRI may be used for imaging.  Bone scans (or focal X-ray) or brain imaging should be performed if 
metastatic disease in bone or brain is suspected, respectively.  The same mode of imaging should be utilized throughout the study unless medical necessity requires a change. For 
randomized subjects, screening imaging should be sent to the central imaging vendor no later than at the time of submission of the first on-treatment imaging. All imaging acquired 
post randomization will be sent to the central imaging vendor within 7 days of scanning for the blinded independent central assessment of radiological tumor response based on 
RECIST 1.1.  The investigator should make every effort to immediately submit radiologic assessments for IRC review when PD is suspected. See [Section 5.3 Efficacy 
Assessments]. Refer to Imaging Acquisition Guidelines for further detail on scan modality and contrast options. 
13. Laboratory Assessments: See [Section 5.4.3 Laboratory Assessments] for list of laboratory assessments. Laboratory tests must be sent to the central laboratory for analysis.  For 
screening/eligibility laboratory assessments, see footnote number 1. 
• Laboratory test results (central or local) will be reviewed by the investigator prior to any study treatment. Clinical significance of out-of-range laboratory findings is to be 
determined and documented by the investigator/sub-investigator who is a qualified physician. 
• Local laboratory results may be used for treatment decisions; however, central laboratory samples must also be drawn per protocol and sent to the central laboratory. 
(UNIQUE TO CHINA: Local laboratory results may be used for treatment decisions; however, central laboratory samples should also be drawn per protocol and sent to the 
central laboratory unless otherwise approved by the sponsor.)  
• Central and local labs may be collected up to 48 hours prior to study treatment. 
• Holidays and weekends should be taken into account when scheduling these sample collections. 
• Additional assessments may be done centrally or locally to monitor AEs or as clinically indicated.  
14. Coagulation (PT, PTT and INR): Coagulation tests should be done at Screening and during study treatment period if clinically indicated.  Local or central lab results may be used 
to confirm eligibility. Ongoing evaluation should be continued for subjects who are receiving therapeutic anticoagulation according to local standard of care. See [Section 5.4.3 
Laboratory Assessments]. 
15. Serum Pregnancy Test: Serum pregnancy tests will be collected for female subjects of childbearing potential only.  Serum pregnancy tests collected at Screening, during study 
treatment period and if clinically indicated or per local requirements. Serum pregnancy test can be completed up to 48 hours prior to zolbetuximab/placebo administration. (Note: 
For Screening, subjects with elevated serum βHCG and a demonstrated non-pregnant status through additional testing are eligible.) Local or central laboratory results may be used 
to confirm eligibility.

period every 3 weeks on day 1 of each cycle and at the zolbetuximab/placebo Study Treatment Discontinuation and 30-day Safety Follow-up Visits. Urine pregnancy test can be 
completed up to 48 hours prior to zolbetuximab/placebo administration. Additional urine pregnancy testing for up to 9 months after the final study treatment administration may be 
conducted based on local requirements. 
17. HRQoL and HRU questionnaires: eCOA questionnaires should be completed by the subject at Screening (except for HRU), on day 1 of each cycle (or up to 48 hours) before any 
antiemetic or drug treatment and before the disease status is discussed with the subject, using the electronic tablet device provided. When completion by the subject is not possible, 
the questionnaires may be administered to the subject by site personnel using the electronic tablet device. For subjects with low literacy, situations where translations are 
unavailable or other circumstances preventing the screening questionnaires to be completed, please contact the sponsor for further guidance. 
18. Study Treatment Discontinuation Visit (End of Study Treatment): The Study Treatment Discontinuation Visit will take place ≤ 7 days following the decision to discontinue study 
treatment (zolbetuximab/placebo and CAPOX [both components]). If zolbetuximab/placebo and CAPOX (both components) are discontinued on a different day, subjects will have 
separate Study Treatment Discontinuation Visits following each treatment’s discontinuation. Laboratory tests must be sent to the central laboratory for analysis. HRQoL and HRU 
questionnaires are not required at CAPOX treatment discontinuation visit. A combined visit can be completed if zolbetuximab/placebo are discontinued on the same day.  
19. 30-day Safety Follow-up Visit: A 30-day Safety Follow-up Visit should occur 30 days after the last dose of zolbetuximab/placebo and will include the assessments as shown in the 
Schedule of Assessments above.  A 30-day Safety Follow-up Visit should occur 30 days after the last dose of CAPOX (both components) and may be conducted by phone if the 
subject is unable to visit the site and will require contact for AE/SAE collection only. HRQoL and HRU questionnaires are not required at CAPOX 30-day safety follow up visit. A 
combined visit can be completed if zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX are discontinued on the same day and HRQoL and HRU questionnaires should be 
completed for a combined visit. 
20. 90-day Safety Follow-up Visits: A 90-day Safety Follow-up Visit should occur 90 days after the last dose of zolbetuximab/placebo and will include the assessments as shown in 
the Schedule of Assessments above.  A 90-day Safety Follow-up Visit should occur 90 days after the last dose of CAPOX (both components) and may be conducted by phone if 
the subject is unable to visit the site and will require contact for AE/SAE collection only. HRQoL and HRU questionnaires are not required at CAPOX 90-day safety follow up 
visit. A combined visit can be completed if zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX are discontinued on the same day and HRQoL and HRU questionnaires should 
be completed for a combined visit. 
21. Post-treatment Follow-up: if a subject discontinues all study treatments (zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX) prior to IRC-confirmed radiological disease 
progression, the subject will enter the Post-treatment Follow-up Period and continue to undergo imaging assessments every 9 weeks (±7 days) (or every 12 weeks [±7 days] if 
subject has been on study over 54 weeks) until radiologic disease progression (i.e., PFS) or the subject starts subsequent anticancer treatment, whichever occurs earlier. If study 
treatments (zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX) are discontinued due to PD, the subject will enter the Long-term and Survival Follow-up Period.   
22. Long-term and Survival Follow-up Period: Following disease progression on first-line treatment or start of subsequent anticancer treatment, subjects will be followed in the 
Long-term and Survival Follow-up Period per institutional guidelines, but at least every 12 weeks.  Radiologic imaging will be done per standard of care and read locally until 
PFS2 is documented.  Survival Follow-up Period will continue until death (from any cause).  All post-progression details including subsequent anticancer treatment and date and 
site of progression will be recorded on the eCRF. Subject contact by phone or other remote methods is sufficient during Long-term and Survival Follow-up.

INTRODUCTION 
Gastric and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancers are among the malignancies with the 
highest unmet medical need. Gastric cancer-related mortality is the fourth leading cause of 
cancer death worldwide, even if its incidence has decreased over the last 50 years in different 
regions of the world [Cancer Fact Sheet, 2018; Amiri et al, 2011].  On the other hand, the 
incidence of subjects with GEJ adenocarcinoma has increased in recent decades, coinciding 
with a shift in histological type and primary tumor location [Waddell et al, 2013; Sahin et al, 
2008].   
In 2017, an estimated 723100 people died worldwide from gastric cancer [Lederman, 2017].  
The overall 5-year survival rate for gastric and GEJ cancers is averaging 20% in the US and 
Europe, despite aggressive standard treatments, which are also associated with substantial 
side effects [Pennathur et al, 2013; Sahin et al, 2008].   
There is no single standard, globally accepted first-line reference chemotherapeutic regimen 
for advanced gastric cancer. In the US and Europe, the current standard of care cytotoxic 
chemotherapy regimen consists of fluoropyrimidine with platinum-based combination 
chemotherapy regimens with or without a third agent such as docetaxel or epirubicin 
[National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), 2017; Waddell et al, 2013; Pasini et al, 
2011].  Subjects in this study will receive CAPOX (a combination of capecitabine and 
oxaliplatin), which is a globally accepted standard-of-care treatment for subjects with locally 
advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal (GE) cancer. The safety of 
this combination regimen is well-documented [Kim et al, 2012]. 
The lack of a major benefit from the various newer generation combination chemotherapy 
regimens for these cancers has stimulated research into the use of targeted agents such as 
monoclonal antibodies (mAbs).  Two mAbs, trastuzumab and ramucirumab, have received 
approval for treatment of gastric cancer. Trastuzumab selectively binds the extracellular 
domain of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), which is overexpressed in 
approximately 20% to 30% of gastric tumors [Bang et al, 2009], and ramucirumab 
specifically binds vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 2 and blocks binding 
of VEGF receptor ligands VEGF-A, VEGF-C and VEGF-D.  Trastuzumab is approved for 
treatment of HER2 overexpressing metastatic gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma while 
ramucirumab is approved as a single agent or in combination with paclitaxel, for treatment of 
advanced gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma, with disease progression on or after prior 
fluoropyrimidine-or platinum-containing chemotherapy [CYRAMZA Prescribing 
Information, 2017; HERCEPTIN Prescribing Information, 2016].  These agents prolonged 
median overall survival (OS) by 4 or fewer months when given alone or in combination with 
chemotherapy compared with standard of care cytotoxic chemotherapy [Fuchs et al, 2014; 
Wilke et al, 2014; Ohtsu et al, 2011; Bang et al, 2010].   
Approximately 70% to 80% of patients with metastatic or advanced unresectable gastric and 
GEJ adenocarcinoma in the first line setting have tumors that are HER2 negative and are not 
treatable with trastuzumab. These patients have an expected median survival of 
approximately 1 year [Shah et al, 2017].  Therefore, a significant unmet medical need exists

for the first-line treatment of patients with HER2 negative locally advanced or metastatic 
unresectable gastric and GEJ cancers. Zolbetuximab is being developed with the goal of 
addressing this unmet medical need. 
1.1 
Background 
Zolbetuximab is a genetically engineered, highly purified chimeric (mouse/human IgG1) 
antibody directed against the tight junction molecule Claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2).  The target 
is a member of the claudin family of more than 20 structurally related proteins that are 
involved in the formation of tight junctions in epithelia and endothelia [Niimi et al, 2001].  
Tight junctions, together with adherens junctions and desmosomes, form the apical junctional 
complex in epithelial and endothelial cellular sheets.  Adherens junctions and desmosomes 
are responsible for the mechanical adhesion between adjacent cells, whereas tight junctions 
are essential for the tight sealing of the cellular sheets forming a luminary barrier and 
controlling the paracellular ion flux. 
CLDN18.2 is a 27.7 kDa protein with 4 membrane-spanning domains and 2 small 
extracellular loops [Gunzel & Yu, 2013; Sahin et al, 2008].  Zolbetuximab recognizes the 
first extracellular domain of CLDN18.2 with high affinity and specificity.  Zolbetuximab 
does not bind to any other claudin family member including the closely related splice variant 
1 of Claudin 18 (CLDN18.1). 
CLDN18.2 is a highly cell type specific differentiation antigen that is expressed by 
differentiated gastric mucosa cells in the pit and base regions of gastric glands.  Moreover, 
CLDN18.2 is not detectable in any other normal cell type of the human body either at 
transcript level or as protein.  This highly selective tissue distribution pattern results in 
CLDN18.2 expression being strictly confined to a subpopulation of gastric epithelial cells in 
normal tissue [Sahin et al, 2008].  
CLDN18.2 is expressed in a diversity of human cancers and is the dominant isoform in GE 
and pancreatic cancer [Lee et al, 2011].  The expression of CLDN18.2 is retained upon 
malignant transformation of gastric epithelia and is present in 81% of primary gastric 
adenocarcinomas.  CLDN18.2 expression is frequently detected in diffuse and in intestinal 
gastric cancers.  The CLDN18.2 protein is also localized in lymph node metastases of gastric 
cancer adenocarcinomas and in distant metastases into the bile duct, lung and especially into 
the ovary (so-called Krukenberg tumors).  Furthermore, over 42% of esophageal 
adenocarcinomas and 50% to 70% of pancreatic cancers display significant expression of 
CLDN18.2 [Wöll et al, 2014; Lee et al, 2011; Sanada et al, 2010; Karanjawala et al, 2008; 
Sahin et al, 2008]. 
Zolbetuximab is being developed for the first-line treatment of adult subjects with locally 
advanced unresectable or metastatic CLDN18.2-positive, HER2-negative gastric or GEJ 
adenocarcinoma in combination with platinum- and fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy.  
For this study, a subject’s tumor must express CLDN18.2 in ≥ 75% of tumor cells 
demonstrating moderate to strong membranous staining as determined by central 
immunohistochemistry (IHC) testing.

1.2 
Nonclinical and Clinical Data 
1.2.1 
Nonclinical Data 
In vitro studies with CLDN18.2-positive and negative cancer cell lines showed that 
zolbetuximab binds to the extracellular domain 1 of CLDN18.2 on human gastric cancer cell 
lines with high relative affinity and selectivity.  In vitro assays demonstrated that 
zolbetuximab mediated an efficient lysis of CLDN18.2-positive cells through 
antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity 
(CDC). 
All zolbetuximab-mediated effects are strictly CLDN18.2 antigen-specific. 
In bio-distribution studies in nude mice with human tumor xenografts, intravenously 
administered zolbetuximab was retained, as well as specifically and strongly enriched in 
CLDN18.2-positive human xenografts.  No or little in vivo binding of zolbetuximab to any 
other mouse tissues including stomach tissue was observed. 
Administration of repeated doses of zolbetuximab to mice bearing CLDN18.2-positive 
tumors resulted in retardation of tumor growth kinetics in tumor models. 
A series of in vitro experiments were conducted with CLDN18.2-expressing cell lines 
derived from NUGC-4 and KATO-III to investigate the effects of combining these 
chemotherapy agents with zolbetuximab.  Combinations of chemotherapy agents used in the 
treatment of gastric and esophageal cancers, including 5-FU, oxaliplatin and epirubicin (e.g., 
5-FU/oxaliplatin, 5-FU/oxaliplatin/epirubicin) augmented zolbetuximab activity.  In vitro 
pre-sensitization of human gastric cancer cells with chemotherapy resulted in an increase in 
the amount of cell surface CLDN18.2 and thus improved zolbetuximab-mediated ADCC and 
CDC. 
In immunocompetent mice, zolbetuximab in combination with chemotherapy resulted in a 
pronounced T cell infiltration into the tumors and significant long-term survival benefit over 
zolbetuximab alone. In the same animal model, the combination treatment of zolbetuximab 
with oxaliplatin and 5-FU significantly inhibited tumor growth compared with each 
monotherapy of zolbetuximab or the chemotherapeutic agents, along with an increase in 
tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells. These effects might be mediated by induction of adaptive 
T cell immunity, which may have led to the antitumor effect and immune surveillance. 
CLDN18.2 is highly conserved across species, and the epitope of zolbetuximab is identical 
between humans, mice and cynomolgus monkeys.  In addition, the binding affinity of 
zolbetuximab to CLDN18.2 orthologs from mice, humans and cynomolgus monkeys was 
shown to be comparable, providing sufficient evidence that testing in mice and monkeys 
covers the potential on-target effects and toxicities of zolbetuximab.   
The nonclinical pharmacology studies conducted with zolbetuximab provide sufficient 
experimental evidence that zolbetuximab depletes CLDN18.2-positive cells via ADCC and 
CDC. Cytotoxic drugs were shown to increase CLDN18.2 expression on human cancer cells

and to improve the activity of the major mechanism of action (ADCC and CDC).  Hence, the 
combination of zolbetuximab with first-line chemotherapy is being investigated in the clinic. 
Safety pharmacology and toxicity of zolbetuximab were assessed in mice and cynomolgus 
monkeys.  In mice, the maximum exposure tested was 300 mg/kg weekly over 13 weeks, and 
in cynomolgus monkeys, the maximum exposure tested was 100 mg/kg weekly over 4 weeks. 
In both species, no target organs of toxicity were identified; however, in monkeys, emesis 
was observed in a non-dose-related manner.  The emesis that was observed in monkeys was 
not severe and spontaneously resolved despite continued dosing.  The emetic potential of 
zolbetuximab was confirmed in an investigational study in ferrets.  This effect is considered 
to be related to the binding of zolbetuximab to junctional protein, CLDN18.2, in the gastric 
epithelium.  A human tissue cross-reactivity study of zolbetuximab showed that the gastric 
mucosa was the only tissue with strong membrane staining.  However, histological 
assessment of the gastric tissue in monkeys failed to identify any histopathological lesions. 
Besides the findings listed previously, no other zolbetuximab-related adverse effects were 
observed in any organ, neither clinically, nor macroscopically or histologically upon 
postmortem analysis. 
In summary, the nonclinical data outlined above supports the clinical development of 
zolbetuximab in combination with standard chemotherapy for the treatment of 
CLDN18.2-positive gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma.  
Please refer to the current IB for most recent nonclinical data. 
1.2.2 
Clinical Data 
Zolbetuximab has been evaluated in clinical studies as a single agent and in combination with 
epirubicin, oxaliplatin and capecitabine (EOX) chemotherapy or in combination with 
immunomodulation therapy (zoledronic acid [ZA] with or without interleukin-2 [IL-2]) for 
the treatment of adult subjects with CLDN18.2-positive advanced adenocarcinoma of the 
stomach, esophagus or GEJ. 
CLDN18.2 expression was immunohistochemically determined for all subjects enrolled in 
the clinical studies.  Several studies had an enrichment type of design meaning that only 
subjects above a certain threshold of CLDN18.2 positivity in their tumors were eligible for 
treatment.  Eligibility for enrollment in the GM-IMAB-001-03 
(EudraCT No. 2011-005285-38) and GM-IMAB-001-04 (EudraCT No. 2011-005509-64) 
studies, hereafter referred to as FAST and PILOT, respectively, was determined using the 
analytically validated and Conformité Européene (CE)-marked diagnostic kit, 
CLAUDETECTTM18.2. 
To date, 4 clinical studies have been completed and include GM-IMAB-001 
(EudraCT No. 2008-004719-37, referred to as first-in-human [FIM]), PILOT, FAST and 
GM-IMAB-001-02 (EudraCT No. 2009-017365-36) referred to as MONO.   
Zolbetuximab has been granted orphan drug designation for the treatment of stomach cancer 
by the EMA and FDA.

Summary of Key Safety Information for Study Drugs 
As of 06 May 2019, zolbetuximab has been administered to 306 subjects including 
259 subjects in the following 4 completed clinical studies:  
● 
FIM study as a single monotherapy dose (up to 1000 mg/m2) in 15 subjects; 
● 
MONO study as repeated monotherapy doses up to 600 mg/m2 once every 2 weeks in 
54 subjects (maximum exposure was 72 infusions);  
● 
FAST study as repeated doses of zolbetuximab in combination with EOX chemotherapy 
(up to 1000 mg/m2 once every 3 weeks) in 162 subjects (maximum exposure greater than 
40 infusions); and 
● 
PILOT study in combination with immunomodulation therapy (up to 600 mg/m2 once 
every 3 weeks) in 28 subjects.  
And 2 ongoing open-label clinical studies: 
● 
8951-CL-0103 (ILUSTRO) as monotherapy or in combination with mFOLFOX6 in 
32 subjects 
● 
8951-CL-0104 as monotherapy in 15 Japanese subjects  
Current phase 1/2 study status and enrollment are available in the zolbetuximab 
Investigator’s Brochure (IB) (see Table 13 in the IB). 
Nausea and vomiting have been confirmed as important identified risks as has 
hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs), including infusion-related reactions (IRRs).  Anemia and 
neutropenia are considered important potential risks. These important identified risks along 
with important potential risks, based on observations from the clinical studies, are described 
in Section 5.2 of the IB.  Expected adverse drug reactions, including reference safety 
information (RSI) used for expedited health authority reporting are described in Appendix 1 
of the IB.  
One patient from an ongoing Phase 2 study (monotherapy arm) experienced grade 4 acute 
coronary syndrome, grade 4 cardiac arrest, and grade 4 posterior reversible encephalopathy 
syndrome (PRES), and grade 3 pulmonary embolism, 22 days after the first infusion of 
zolbetuximab monotherapy. The patient had a medical history significant for uncontrolled 
hypertension, asthenia and anemia. The patient recovered from these events, which were 
deemed serious, and a possible causal relationship to zolbetuximab could not be excluded. 
Refer to the IB for additional details. 
In clinical studies, adverse reactions with nausea and/or vomiting and HSRs up to National 
Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) grade 3 
were reported. Subjects receiving zolbetuximab should receive prophylactic antiemetic

medications, but do not need to be premedicated for prevention of HSRs and IRRs; however, 
subjects should be closely monitored for IRRs to facilitate early identification and 
management. In the case of zolbetuximab-induced nausea, vomiting or hypersensitivity 
including IRRs, the infusion rate of zolbetuximab may be reduced or the infusion may be 
paused or discontinued based on investigator’s clinical judgment about severity of toxicity 
and local standard of care.  
Detailed information on the toxicities associated with CAPOX can be found within 
Section 4.8 of the EU summary of product characteristics (SPC) or local product information 
for each component.  
Potential overlapping toxicities during treatment with zolbetuximab in combination with 
CAPOX include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, fatigue, HSR, 
infusion reactions, weight loss and edema.

Efficacy 
1.4.1 
Efficacy Results from Study GM-IMAB-001-02 (MONO) 
In the MONO study, efficacy analyses included subjects who received zolbetuximab at least 
once (Full Analysis Set [FAS]) at doses of 300 mg/m2 (3 subjects) and 600 mg/m2 
(40 subjects).  The best overall confirmed response for FAS subjects in the zolbetuximab 
600 mg/m2 dose group was partial response [PR] in 4 subjects (10.0%) that ranged in 
duration from 43 through 1037 days (GM-IMAB-001, Listing 13.2.6.4).  The best overall 
confirmed response was stable disease (SD) in 6 subjects (15.0%) and progressive disease 
(PD) in 28 subjects (70.0%) in the 600 mg/m2 group (GM-IMAB-001-02, Table 12.3.7.1).  
No subject achieved complete response (CR).  Median progression free survival (PFS) in the 
FAS was 10 weeks (95% confidence interval [CI]: 8.6, 10.1 weeks) in the 600 mg/m2 group 
(GM-IMAB-001-02, Table 12.3.3.1). 
1.4.2 
Efficacy Results from Study GM-IMAB-001-03 (FAST) 
Treatment groups in the FAST study are referred to as EOX, EOX + IMAB600 (EOX plus 
zolbetuximab 600 mg/m2 once every 3 weeks, with a loading dose of 800 mg/m2 in cycle 1) 
and EOX + IMAB1000 (EOX plus zolbetuximab 1000 mg/m2 once every 3 weeks). 
In the FAST study, efficacy analyses of all randomized subjects were included in the 
intent-to-treat set and included subjects randomized to EOX only (85 subjects), EOX + 
IMAB600 (79 subjects) and EOX + IMAB1000 (88 subjects).  Additional analyses were 
completed for the FAS, defined as randomized subjects who received at least 1 dose of any 
study drug (E, Ox, capecitabine or zolbetuximab).  The FAS differed from the intent-to-treat 
set (all randomized subjects) by 6 subjects all of whom discontinued the study early without 
death or post-baseline tumor assessment.  The reasons for early discontinuation of these 
subjects included protocol violation (1 subject), physician decision (1 subject), withdrawal by 
subject (2 subjects) and adverse event (AE) (1 subject was anemic and another had a deep 
vein thrombosis) (GM-IMAB-001-03, Listing 13.2.1).

Version 8.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 7 
PFS Based on Central Independent Review (Kaplan-Meier Model, Intent-to-Treat) 
The addition of zolbetuximab to EOX led to a statistically significant prolongation of PFS, 
both for the lower zolbetuximab dose (hazard ratio [HR] 0.45, P < 0.0005) and the higher 
zolbetuximab dose (HR 0.57, P = 0.0114). Median PFS was 7.5 months in the EOX + 
IMAB600 arm and 7.1 months in the EOX + IMAB1000 arm vs 5.3 months in the EOX arm, 
representing a median PFS prolongation by 2.2 and 1.8 months, respectively [IB, Table 17].  
Overall Survival (Kaplan-Meier, Intent-to-Treat) 
The addition of zolbetuximab 600 mg/m2 led to a statistically significant prolongation in OS 
(HR 0.52, P < 0.0005). Median OS was 13 months in the EOX + IMAB600 arm vs 
8.3 months in the EOX arm, representing an increase in median OS by 4.7 months. In the 
EOX + IMAB1000 arm, median OS was 9.6 months and hence, numerically longer than in 
the EOX arm [IB, Table 18]. However, the difference between the groups did not reach 
statistical significance. The difference in OS between the 2 zolbetuximab doses was 
statistically significant (P = 0.0406) (GM-IMAB-001-03, Table 12.3.2.1.5.3).  
No major imbalances were seen between the treatment groups in the subsequent use of any 
anticancer therapy (EOX: 38.1%; EOX + IMAB600: 40.3%; EOX + IMAB1000: 34.1%) and 
any chemotherapy (EOX: 34.5%; EOX + IMAB600: 39.0%; EOX + IMAB1000: 29.4%) 
(GM-IMAB-001-03, Tables 12.2.1.1.5.1 and 12.2.1.5 [Safety-evaluable Set]). 
Best Objective Tumor Response by Independent Review Committee  
Based on confirmed responses, the ORR was 38.0% in the EOX + IMAB600 arm, 29.5% in 
the EOX + IMAB1000 arm and 24.7% in the EOX arm [IB, Table 21]. This included 10.1% 
of subjects with a CR in the EOX + IMAB600 arm, 4.5% in the EOX + IMAB1000 arm and 
3.5% in the EOX arm (GM-IMAB-001-03, Table 12.3.3.1.3). 
1.4.3 
Efficacy of CAPOX  
The results from Study GM-IMAB-001-03 (FAST) using EOX support the use of CAPOX in 
this study, as CAPOX is similar to EOX except that CAPOX does not include epirubicin.  
Subjects in this study will receive CAPOX, which is an accepted standard-of-care treatment 
for subjects with locally advanced unresectable metastatic gastric or GE cancer 
[NCCN, 2017].   
1.5 
Risk Benefit Assessment 
Zolbetuximab is an investigational agent for the treatment of CLDN18.2-positive, 
HER2-negative locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma 
in combination with standard of care oxaliplatin and fluoropyrimidine-based combination 
chemotherapy as first-line treatment. 
Based on clinical efficacy and safety data from the MONO study, preliminary data from the 
FAST study and supportive preclinical pharmacological studies, there is potential of 
achieving clinically relevant benefit in combination with oxaliplatin and

fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy in a first-line setting and as a single agent in the later 
line setting.  
Based on currently available clinical data, zolbetuximab was tolerated from a safety 
perspective and most observed AEs have been considered manageable. Nonclinical toxicity 
data were supportive of the clinical findings.  
Important identified risks of zolbetuximab are:  
● 
Nausea 
● 
Vomiting  
● 
HSRs (including IRRs) 
Important potential risks of zolbetuximab include:  
● 
Neutropenia  
● 
Anemia 
Management of the important identified risks associated with zolbetuximab includes 
antiemetic pretreatment, reduction of the initial zolbetuximab infusion rate, and pausing or 
discontinuing the infusion based on patient tolerability and investigator’s clinical judgment 
about severity of toxicity and local standard of care. Subjects receiving zolbetuximab do not 
need to be premedicated for prevention of HSRs and IRRs; however, subjects should be 
closely monitored for IRRs to facilitate early identification and management. 
Overall, the risks, both identified and potential, associated with zolbetuximab in combination 
with CAPOX are balanced by the anticipated benefits to subjects with CLDN18.2-positive, 
HER2 negative locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma.  
As described in [Section 10.1], an Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) will be 
responsible for reviewing the unblinded data from the study to ensure the safety of the 
subjects.

Screening: 
The Screening period is 45 days from full main informed consent form (ICF) signature. 
Retesting of lab values is allowed within the 45-day Screening period. Re-screening outside 
the 45-day window under a new subject number may be allowed once and upon discussion 
with the Medical Monitor (see Re-Screening below). Computerized tomography (CT) scans 
and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) conducted as part of a subject’s routine clinical 
management (i.e., standard of care) obtained before signing the ICF may be utilized for 
screening or baseline purposes, provided the procedures met the protocol-specified criteria 
and were performed within the Screening period. 
An optional partial screening ICF may be available to allow central testing of tissue for 
CLDN18.2 and HER2 only. (UNIQUE TO CHINA: An optional partial screening ICF may be 
available to allow central testing of tissue for CLDN18.2. only) 
Formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue will be collected for central testing to 
determine CLDN18.2 and HER2 status. (UNIQUE TO CHINA: FFPE tumor tissue will be 
collected for central testing to determine CLDN18.2 status.) 
Archival tumor tissue is preferred.  
● 
A minimum of 1 FFPE tumor tissue block (preferred) OR a minimum* of 15 FFPE 
unstained slides are required as allowed per local policy.  If slides are submitted, the 
slides should be freshly cut from the FFPE block within the time frame described in the 
laboratory manual.  
● 
If local HER2 results are already available from local testing, a minimum* of 12 FFPE 
unstained slides are required to be submitted to the central laboratory as allowed per 
local policy.  
*If the required minimum number of slides is not able to be submitted, sponsor 
notification and approval is required. 
● 
If the specimen is insufficient or unavailable, a biopsy may be performed to obtain tumor 
sample.  
o Sponsor pre-approval is required when the sole purpose of the biopsy procedure is 
to assess eligibility for this study.  
o If the required number of slides cannot be provided, the sponsor or designee should 
be contacted for further guidance. 
o (UNIQUE TO CHINA: Five FFPE unstained slides are required, as allowed per 
local policy. The slides should be freshly cut from the FFPE block within the time 
frame described in the laboratory manual.) 
Re-Screening: 
Subjects who have failed screening are allowed to be re-screened one time after consultation 
with the Medical Monitor.  Upon re-screening, a new subject number will be assigned.  
Subjects have to re-consent to the study and all screening procedures must be repeated, with 
the exception of the CLDN18.2 and HER2 testing as well as the radiologic imaging 
procedure to confirm eligibility if the scan is within 28 days prior to randomization.

Laboratory values re-tested within the original 45-day Screening period are not considered 
re-screening and no new subject number will be assigned.  
Treatment Period: 
Subjects will be treated with either zolbetuximab (Arm A) or placebo (Arm B) on day 1 of 
each cycle (for all study treatments, a cycle is defined as approximately 21 days), until the 
subject meets study treatment discontinuation criteria or zolbetuximab is commercially 
marketed and locally accessible. 
Once the product is commercially marketed and locally accessible, participants should 
complete the study, transition to commercial supply and follow the local label for treatment. 
Astellas is planning to close the clinical study when zolbetuximab (Vyloy) is commercially 
marketed in all countries with active participants and all participants have successfully 
transitioned to an alternative means of drug supply. 
During treatment on study protocol, subjects will receive up to 8 treatments of CAPOX 
treatment. Oxaliplatin is administered on day 1 of each cycle, whereas capecitabine is taken 
twice daily on days 1 through 14.  After a maximum of 8 treatments of oxaliplatin, subjects 
may continue to receive capecitabine taken twice daily on days 1 through 14 of each cycle at 
the investigator’s discretion until the subject meets study treatment discontinuation criteria. 
(NOTE:  An ECG is required to be performed and assessed locally prior to every oxaliplatin 
infusion [before any antiemetic treatment] and following completion of every oxaliplatin 
infusion. ECG should be performed up to 48 hours prior to and up to 6 hours following every 
oxaliplatin infusion.  Oxaliplatin administration and electrolyte levels should be managed 
according to investigator judgment for subjects with grade 1 or 2 hypokalemia, 
hypomagnesemia, and/or hypocalcemia.)  
Radiologic imaging will be evaluated every 9 weeks (± 7 days) counting from 
cycle 1/day 1 (C1D1) for the first 54 weeks and every 12 weeks (± 7 days) thereafter until 
subject develops radiological disease progression per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid 
Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 locally or by IRC or starts other systemic anticancer treatment, 
whichever occurs earlier. 
Participants who discontinue zolbetuximab and continue to receive CAPOX or components 
of CAPOX should complete procedures on the study and transition to commercially marketed 
and locally accessible product(s) (CAPOX or its applicable components). 
Study Treatment Discontinuation and Safety Follow-up Visits: 
Following discontinuation from zolbetuximab/placebo, subjects will have a 
zolbetuximab/placebo Study Treatment Discontinuation Visit within 7 days after the decision 
to discontinue, and 30-day and 90-day Safety Follow-up Visits after their last dose of 
zolbetuximab/placebo. If a participant transitions to commercially marketed zolbetuximab 
and has discontinued from the study, the 30- and 90-day safety follow up visits are not 
required.

Version 8.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 7 
Once participants have transitioned to commercially marketed zolbetuximab, safety 
assessment and reporting should continue as per post-marketing product requirements. 
Additionally, if CAPOX (both components) is discontinued on a different day than 
zolbetuximab/placebo, subjects will also have a Study Treatment Discontinuation Visit 
within 7 days after the decision to discontinue, and 30-day and 90-day Safety Follow-up 
Visits after the last dose of CAPOX (both components).  The CAPOX 30-day and 90-day 
Safety Follow-up Visits may be conducted by telephone if the subject is unable to visit the 
study site and will require contact for AE/SAE collection only.  If a participant transitions to 
commercially marketed CAPOX and has discontinued from the study, the 30- and 90-day 
safety follow up visits are not required.  
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), the 
90-day Safety Follow-up Visit will be conducted by phone; see the Schedule of Assessments 
[Table 11] in [Section 13]. 
Post-treatment Follow-up Period (for PFS): 
Note: Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), the 
Post Treatment Follow-up Period (for PFS) is discontinued; see the Schedule of Assessments 
[Table 11] in [Section 13].  
Subjects that completed the 90-Day Safety Follow up Visit(s) treatment period under 
Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1) were eligible 
for the Post-Treatment Follow-up Period (for PFS) with radiological disease progression 
determined by IRC as outlined in [Table 1]. If a subject discontinues all study treatments 
(zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX) prior to IRC-confirmed 
radiological disease progression, the subject will enter the Post-treatment Follow-up Period 
and continue to undergo scheduled imaging assessments every 9 weeks (±7 days) (or every 
12 weeks [±7 days] if subject has been on study over 54 weeks) until radiologic disease 
progression (i.e., PFS event) per IRC, or until the subject starts any other anticancer 
treatment, whichever occurs earlier.  
If study treatments (zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX) are 
discontinued due to disease progression (PFS event), the subject will enter the Long-term and 
Survival Follow-up Period.  
Long-term Follow-up Period (for PFS2) and Survival Follow-up (for OS) Period: 
Note: Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), the 
Long Term Follow-up Period (for PFS2) and Survival Follow-up (for OS) Period is 
discontinued; see the Schedule of Assessments [Table 11] in [Section 13].  
Subjects that completed the Post-Treatment Follow-up Period (for PFS) under Protocol 
Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1) were eligible for the 
Long Term Follow-up Period (for PFS2) and Survival Follow-up (for OS) Period and were 
followed as outlined in Protocol Version 6.1 as outlined in [Table 1].

anticancer therapy (PFS2) is documented, or the subject starts another systemic anticancer 
treatment, whichever occurs earlier.  Radiologic imaging for PFS2 will be done per local 
standard of care and read locally.  Subjects will continue to be followed for survival status 
(OS) in the Survival Follow-up Period until death (from any cause). 
All post-progression details including subsequent anticancer treatment and date and site of 
progression will be recorded on the electronic case report form (eCRF).  Subject contact by 
phone or other remote method is sufficient during Long-term and Survival Follow-up.  
Additional follow-up contacts may be required per sponsor request for analysis purposes. 
Independent Data Monitoring Committee and Independent Data Analysis Center:  
An IDMC will be established and will monitor the ongoing benefit-risk status of study 
treatment in an unblinded fashion per a pre-defined IDMC charter.  The first IDMC meeting 
will be approximately 6 weeks after the 40th subject enrolled has completed or discontinued 
cycle 2 (6 weeks) and meetings will be conducted thereafter, as defined in the IDMC charter.  
An Independent Data Analysis Center will conduct an interim analysis of OS at the same 
time as the final PFS analysis, which will occur when approximately 300 PFS events have 
occurred.  This analysis will be utilized by the IDMC to recommend whether the study 
should be stopped earlier than planned if zolbetuximab in combination with CAPOX has a 
favorable outcome compared with placebo in combination with CAPOX.  If the OS interim 
analysis demonstrates a highly more favorable outcome for zolbetuximab in combination 
with CAPOX, the study may be stopped for success.  However, any subject continuing to 
derive clinical benefit from zolbetuximab/placebo in combination with CAPOX, as assessed 
by the investigator, will be allowed to continue treatment.  
(UNIQUE to JP: In case that zolbetuximab is approved for marketing authorization in Japan, 
the study will continue as a “phase 4 post-marketing study” in accordance with Good 
Post-marketing Study Practice on and after the day of marketing authorization. In this case, 
“Study” in the protocol is read as “Post-marketing study.”) 
2.2.2 
Dose Rationale 
The dose of zolbetuximab in this study is an 800 mg/m2 loading dose (C1D1) followed by 
600 mg/m2 every 3 weeks in combination with CAPOX.  This dose and schedule of 
zolbetuximab (800/600 mg/m2 every 3 weeks) were chosen based on the observed data from the 
GM-IMAB-001-03 (FAST) study.  In the FAST study, addition of zolbetuximab 
800/600 mg/m2 every 3 weeks to EOX (Arm 2) demonstrated a statistically significant and 
clinically meaningful improvement on PFS and OS in subjects with CLDN18.2-positive 
advanced gastric/GEJ cancer compared to EOX (Arm 1).  The mean serum trough concentration 
of zolbetuximab was maintained above the targeted value of 50 μg/mL (based on half maximal 
effective concentration [EC50] of in vitro ADCC and CDC activities) following 800/600 mg/m2

every 3 weeks administration.  A higher zolbetuximab dose (1000 mg/m2 every 3 weeks) in 
combination with EOX was added 18 months later (with the allocation ratio of 1:1:7) as Arm 3 
in the FAST study to evaluate safety and efficacy at the higher dose. However, this arm had less 
treatment benefit compared to Arm 2.  Although there were numerical differences observed in 
some demographics and baseline characteristics, the sample size was not sufficient to evaluate 
and confirm the impact of such differences; therefore, the reason for underperformance in Arm 
3 remains inconclusive. 
There is no single standard, globally accepted first-line reference chemotherapeutic regimen 
for advanced gastric cancer.  A fluoropyrimidine (capecitabine or 5-FU) in combination with 
platinum agent (cisplatin or oxaliplatin) is an accepted standard of care cytotoxic 
chemotherapy regimen in both Western and Asian countries [NCCN, 2017; Ohtsu et al, 2011; 
Ajani et al, 2010; Vita et al, 2005; Kim et al, 1993]. Both classes of agents are considered to 
be interchangeable according to NCCN and European Society for Medical Oncology 
treatment guidelines.  Subjects in this study will receive CAPOX (a combination of 
capecitabine and oxaliplatin), which is a globally accepted standard-of-care treatment for 
subjects with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or GEJ cancer.  The safety 
of this combination regimen is well-documented.

● 
Such deliveries are recorded, 
● 
Study drug is handled and stored according to labeled storage conditions, 
● 
Study drug with appropriate expiry/retest and is only dispensed to study subjects in 
accordance with the protocol, and 
● 
Any unused study drug is returned to the sponsor, unless prior approval is received from 
the sponsor allowing local standard procedures for the alternative disposition of unused 
study drug. 
Study drug inventory and accountability records will be kept by the investigator, head of 
study site (SPECIFIC TO SITES IN JAPAN) or designee.  Study drug accountability 
throughout the study must be documented and reconciled.  The following guidelines are 
therefore pertinent: 
● 
The investigator agrees not to supply study drugs to any persons except the eligible 
subjects in this study in accordance with the protocol. 
● 
The investigator or designee will keep the study drugs in a pharmacy or other locked and 
secure storage facility under controlled storage conditions, accessible only to those 
authorized by the investigator to dispense these study drugs. 
● 
A study drug inventory will be maintained by the investigator or designee.  The 
inventory will include details of material received and a clear record of when they were 
dispensed and to which subject. 
● 
At the conclusion or termination of this study, the investigator or designee agrees to 
conduct a final drug supply inventory and to record the results of this inventory on the 
Drug Accountability Record.  It must be possible to reconcile delivery records with those 
of used and/or returned study drug. Any discrepancies must be accounted for and 
documented.  Appropriate forms of deliveries and returns must be signed by the site staff 
delegated this responsibility.

Blinding 
See [Appendix 12.10] for unblinding procedures following final OS database lock. 
4.7.1 
Blinding Method  
The clinical study will be conducted as subject- and investigator-blinded.  Subjects will be 
randomized to receive zolbetuximab or placebo in a blinded fashion such that neither the 
investigator, sponsor’s study management team, clinical staff, nor subject will know which 
agent is being administered. All pharmacy-related tasks must be conducted by an unblinded 
pharmacist/designee. The unblinded pharmacist/designee must not share any unblinded 
information with the blinded site personnel 
Upon the need for unblinding (e.g., real-time assessment of the safety data), the chair of the 
IDMC can ask for the release of the treatment assignment for 1 or more subjects and will 
identify the sponsor staff who will receive the information. 
4.7.2 
Confirmation of the Indistinguishability of the Study Drugs 
The appearance of the diluted zolbetuximab solution for infusion is identical to commercial 
saline solution (placebo).  In order to maintain the blind, the subjects randomized to the 
placebo treatment arm (Arm B) will receive placebo in a volume and route corresponding to 
the appropriate zolbetuximab dose (Arm A).  The unblinded pharmacist/designee will 
provide the investigator or designee with blinded study drugs to dose the subjects. Refer to 
the Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines for detailed information. 
4.7.3 
Retention of the Assignment Schedule and Procedures for Treatment Code 
Breaking  
The randomization list and study drug blind will be maintained by the Interactive Response 
Technology (IRT) system.  
4.7.4 
Breaking the Treatment Code for Emergency  
The treatment code for each randomized subject will be provided by the IRT in the event of a 
medical emergency requiring knowledge of the treatment assigned to the subject.  The IRT 
will be programmed with blind-breaking instructions that may only be requested by the 
investigator or subinvestigators designated to have access to perform blind-break.  No 
subjects or other study personnel, other than the unblinded pharmacist or designee, will be 
made aware of the treatment given to any subject unless a medical emergency necessitates 
such disclosure.  In case of a medical emergency, the investigator has the sole responsibility 
for determining if unblinding of subject’s treatment assignment is warranted.  Subject safety 
must always be the first consideration in making such determination.  If the investigator 
decides that unblinding is warranted, the investigator should make every effort to contact the 
sponsor prior to unblinding a subject’s treatment assignment unless this could delay 
emergency treatment for the subject.  Any unblinding by the investigators must be reported 
immediately to the sponsor and must include an explanation of why the study drug was 
unblinded.

Version 8.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 7 
The investigator must have confirmed functionality to access code-break through the IRT 
system and must have a designated back up (e.g., redundant processes) to support emergency 
unblinding requirements.  
Prior to randomization, subjects should be provided with information that includes the site 
emergency contact number and back-up contact number in case of a medical emergency.  
Any unblinding by the investigational staff must be reported immediately to the sponsor and 
include an explanation of why the study drug was unblinded.  If unblinding is associated with 
a SAE the investigator is to follow the instructions in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of SAE].  
Care should be taken to limit knowledge of the randomization arm, in case this could affect 
the blinding of other subjects or future study assessment for the subject.  
The time, date, subject number and reason for obtaining any of these codes, and therefore 
breaking the blind, must be documented in the study file.  
If possible, the sponsor should be contacted prior to unblinding of the study drug. 
4.7.5 
Breaking the Treatment Code by the Sponsor  
The sponsor may break the treatment code for subjects who experience a Suspected 
Unexpected Serious Adverse Reaction (SUSAR), in order to determine if the individual case 
or a group of cases requires expedited regulatory reporting.  Individual Emergency Codes 
will be provided to the limited staff who are responsible to break the codes for all SUSAR 
cases for reporting purposes. 
4.8 
Assignment and Allocation 
Subject randomization will be performed by blinded site user via IRT and treatment assigned 
in a 1:1 ratio to zolbetuximab or placebo.  Prior to the initiation of the study treatment, the 
unblinded pharmacist/designee will be notified by the IRT system about the randomly 
assigned treatment.  The unblinded pharmacist/designee will dispense the treatment 
according to the IRT system’s assignment.  Specific procedures for randomization through 
the IRT are contained in the IRT manual.  
Randomization will be stratified by:  
● 
Region (Asia vs Non-Asia) 
● 
Number of Organs with Metastatic Sites (0 to 2 vs ≥ 3) 
● 
Prior Gastrectomy (Yes or No)

toxicity can be found in the Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines.  Subjects will be 
administered with a loading dose of 800 mg/m² of zolbetuximab at C1D1 followed by 
subsequent doses of 600 mg/m² every 3 weeks.  Zolbetuximab/placebo should be 
administered prior to CAPOX. Flow rate data will be collected in the eCRF. 
Please also refer to the dosing schematics for details [Section VI]. 
Intravenous infusion may be interrupted or slowed down to manage toxicity. Please refer to 
Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines for more detailed information. 
Once the product is commercially marketed and locally accessible, participants should 
complete the study, transition to commercial supply and follow the local label for treatment. 
Astellas is planning to close the clinical study when zolbetuximab (Vyloy) is commercially 
marketed in all countries with active participants and all participants have successfully 
transitioned to an alternative means of drug supply. 
5.1.1.2 Antiemetics 
Antiemetic premedication (prophylactic antiemetics) should be administered prior to each 
study treatment. 
(NOTE: Subjects receiving zolbetuximab do not need to be premedicated for prevention of 
IRRs; however, subjects should be closely monitored for IRRs to facilitate early 
identification and management.)  
● 
Antiemetic premedication 
o 
IV antiemetic premedication should be initiated prior to treatment, or 
o 
Oral antiemetic premedication should be initiated at a minimum of 30 minutes prior 
to treatment.  
● 
It is recommended that the prophylactic antiemetic regimen include (but is not limited to) 
the following agents: 
o 
NK-1 receptor blockers  
o 
5-HT3 receptor blockers* 
*To minimize the risk of Torsades de Pointes, administer 5-HT3 receptor blockers with caution to subjects 
who have or may develop QTc prolongation. 
Antiemetic premedication should be administered according to institutional standard of care, 
published guidelines and the respective product package insert(s). 
Corticosteroids: 
● 
The impact of corticosteroids on the potential efficacy of zolbetuximab is not known. 
Therefore, consideration should be given to avoid or minimize the use of corticosteroids 
as a prophylactic antiemetic, if possible.  
● 
For a subject’s first dose of zolbetuximab/placebo, it is recommended that the 
prophylactic use of corticosteroids be avoided.

5.1.1.3 CAPOX 
Subjects will receive CAPOX treatment until locally confirmed or IRC confirmed disease 
progression or a total of 8 treatments over 8 or more cycles (each cycle is defined as 
approximately 3 weeks = approximately 21 days). Oxaliplatin is administered on day 1 of 
each cycle, whereas capecitabine is taken twice daily on days 1 through 14.  
After 8 treatments of CAPOX, subjects may continue to receive capecitabine twice daily on 
days 1 through 14 of each cycle at the investigator’s discretion until the subject meets study 
treatment discontinuation criteria. 
CAPOX should be administered after zolbetuximab/placebo infusion. 
● 
Oxaliplatin: 130 mg/m2 intravenous infusion on day 1 of each cycle over 2 hours (or 
longer per institutional standard of care) for a maximum of 8 treatments. (NOTE: ECG is 
required to be performed and assessed locally prior to every oxaliplatin infusion [before 
any antiemetic treatment] and following completion of every oxaliplatin infusion. ECG 
should be performed up to 48 hours prior to and up to 6 hours following every 
oxaliplatin infusion. Oxaliplatin administration and electrolyte levels should be managed 
according to investigator judgment for subjects with grade 1 or 2 hypokalemia, 
hypomagnesemia, and/or hypocalcemia.) 
● 
Capecitabine: Administered orally at 1000 mg/m2 twice daily (bid) (total daily dose is 
2000 mg/m2) on days 1 through 14 of each cycle. Capecitabine can be continued beyond 
8 treatments based on investigator’s judgment. 
o When possible, the first dose of Capecitabine on day 1 should be administered on 
site under the supervision of the site staff. 
o In case the first dose of Capecitabine on day 1 of a cycle is administered too late in 
the day for the second dose to be administered on the same day, the last dose of that 
cycle should be taken in the morning of day 15. 
o Capecitabine should be taken within 30 minutes after a meal. 
Participants who discontinue zolbetuximab and continue to receive CAPOX or components 
of CAPOX should complete procedures on the study and transition to commercially marketed 
and locally accessible product(s) (CAPOX or its applicable components). 
5.1.2 
Study Treatment Dose Modifications, Delays And Interruptions 
5.1.2.1 Increase or Reduction of zolbetuximab/Placebo 
Dose increase or dose reduction for zolbetuximab/placebo is not allowed.  Body surface area 
should be recalculated at minimum if there is a weight change of at least 10% since the last 
dose calculation. 
5.1.2.2 Zolbetuximab/Placebo Interruption or Permanent Discontinuation 
There is a +7 calendar day allowable window for dosing zolbetuximab/placebo.  If 
zolbetuximab/placebo treatment is delayed more than 7 calendar days then it should be 
administered as soon as the reason for delay has resolved, which will then become day 1 of 
the next cycle.  The timing of subsequent doses should be scheduled using the date of the last

dose administration. If zolbetuximab/placebo treatment is delayed, CAPOX/Capecitabine 
administration should also be delayed at the same time and can be restarted when 
zolbetuximab/placebo administration has been restarted, unless there are other reasons 
warranting further delay of CAPOX/Capecitabine at the investigator’s discretion (refer to 
Section 5.1.2.4). Refer to the Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines for more detailed 
information on incomplete dosing. 
A delay of zolbetuximab/placebo treatment of > 28 days from when the next 
zolbetuximab/placebo treatment was scheduled to begin (> 49 days from when the last dose 
of zolbetuximab/placebo began) to be administered due to unresolved toxicity associated 
with zolbetuximab/placebo will result in the subject discontinuing zolbetuximab/placebo.  
Radiologic imaging is to be scheduled every 9 weeks (±7 days) counting from C1D1 for the 
first 54 weeks and then every 12 weeks (±7 days) thereafter; the schedule should be 
maintained regardless of treatment delay. 
Note: Intravenous infusion of zolbetuximab/placebo should be administered as a minimum 
2-hour infusion.  Intravenous infusion may be interrupted or slowed down to manage 
toxicity. Please refer to Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines for more detailed 
information. 
Guidelines for zolbetuximab/placebo treatment modification due to non-hematologic and 
hematologic toxicities, regardless of investigator assessment of relationship to 
zolbetuximab/placebo, are described below in [Table 2] and [Table 3], respectively. 
One case of PRES has been reported in subjects receiving zolbetuximab.  Discontinue 
zolbetuximab/placebo if PRES is suspected. Confirm PRES diagnosis by brain imaging, 
preferably by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

5.1.2.6 CAPOX: Dose Modification for Non-hematologic Toxicity 
CAPOX dose modifications for non-hematologic toxicity should be based on the most severe 
toxicity experienced during the last treatment [Table 7].  Retreatment should be delayed until 
recovery of all non-hematologic toxicity to ≤ grade 2 with the exception of increased 
bilirubin or ALT, which must recover to grade 1 or baseline, whichever was higher.  The 
maximum permitted treatment delay is 28 days from when the next study treatment was 
scheduled to begin (49 days from when the last dose of study treatment began) for recovery 
of non-hematologic toxicity.  If the subject has not recovered sufficiently to meet retreatment 
criteria within that timeframe, CAPOX should be discontinued.   
ECG is required to be performed and assessed locally prior to every oxaliplatin infusion 
(before any antiemetic treatment) and following completion of every oxaliplatin infusion. 
ECG should be performed up to 48 hours prior to and up to 6 hours following every 
oxaliplatin infusion. Ensure that potassium, magnesium, and calcium levels are grade 2 or 
less prior to oxaliplatin infusion. Oxaliplatin may be administered in the setting of grade 1 or 
grade 2 hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, and/or hypocalcemia, based on investigator 
judgment. 
During or following study treatment, additional ECG monitoring should be initiated per local 
standard of care for subjects who experience syncope, presyncope, palpitations and/or 
bradycardia. 
● 
If the QTc interval is > 450 msec, medically manage per local standard of care, including 
correction of hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, and/or hypocalcemia. 
● 
If the QTc interval is > 500 msec, medically manage per local standard of care, withhold 
capecitabine and oxaliplatin treatment, ensure appropriate (continuous) ECG monitoring,

5.1.2.7 Guidelines for Infusion-related Reactions for Oxaliplatin 
Subjects should be closely monitored for IRRs to facilitate early identification and 
management.  The management of such toxicities should be based on investigator utilizing 
institutional standard of care. 
5.1.2.8 Oxaliplatin-induced Neurotoxicity  
Oxaliplatin is known to be associated with peripheral neuropathy, including paresthesia and 
dysesthesia of the hands, feet and perioral region.  Subjects treated with oxaliplatin in this 
study should be advised to avoid cold drinks and exposure to cold water or air, especially 
within 3 to 5 days of receiving oxaliplatin.  Dose modifications for oxaliplatin related to 
neurotoxicity are presented in [Table 8].   
Cases of PRES have been reported in subjects receiving Oxaliplatin combination 
chemotherapy.  Discontinue Oxaliplatin if PRES is suspected. Confirm PRES diagnosis by 
brain imaging, preferably by MRI.

Version 8.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 7 
Subjects developing laryngopharyngeal dysesthesia should have their oxygen saturation 
evaluated via a pulse oximeter.  If results are normal, reassurance should be provided, a 
benzodiazepine or other anxiolytic agent should be considered, and the subject should remain 
for observation in the clinic until the episode has resolved.  After resolution, the oxaliplatin 
infusion may then be continued at one-third the rate. 
Because laryngopharyngeal dysesthesia may be associated with the rate of oxaliplatin 
infusion, subsequent infusions of oxaliplatin should be prolonged from a normal 2-hour 
infusion to a 6-hour infusion. 
Subjects receiving oxaliplatin should avoid consuming cold drinks or ice chips on day 1 of 
each cycle, as this may exacerbate oral or throat dysesthesia, as well as laryngopharyngeal 
dysesthesia.  Administration of prophylactic medication such as Mg2+/Ca2+ infusions or 
others is at the discretion of the investigator. 
The symptoms and treatments of laryngopharyngeal dysesthesia and platinum HSRs are

5.1.2.10 Allergic Reaction to Oxaliplatin 
Subjects developing grade 1 or 2 allergic reaction to oxaliplatin should receive premedication 
according to institutional practice prior to further administration of oxaliplatin.  Appropriate 
premedication should also be given if grade 1 to 2 allergic reaction persists into the next cycle.  
Oxaliplatin should be discontinued in subjects developing grade 3 to 4 allergic reactions. 
Oxaliplatin should be interrupted pending further investigation in subjects experiencing 
respiratory symptoms indicative of pulmonary fibrosis such as nonproductive cough, dyspnea, 
crackles, rales, hypoxia, tachypnea or radiological pulmonary infiltrates.  Oxaliplatin should 
be permanently discontinued in subjects with confirmed interstitial pulmonary fibrosis.

Necrosis has been seen in conjunction with extravasation of oxaliplatin.  Subjects with 
suspected extravasation should have their infusion stopped and the drug administered at 
another site.  Extravasation should be treated according to institutional guidelines. 
5.1.3 
Treatment Compliance 
The dose and schedule of zolbetuximab/placebo and CAPOX administered to each subject 
will be recorded on the appropriate eCRF at every cycle.  Reasons for dose delay or omission 
will also be recorded.  This information will be used to assess compliance with the treatment.  
Subjects will be provided with Capecitabine tablets for self-administration and are asked to 
return any unused tablets and empty packaging at the next scheduled visit for accountability. 
5.1.4 
Criteria for Continuation of Treatment  
Zolbetuximab may be made available after conclusion of the study to subjects who are still 
receiving and benefitting from study treatment until a study-defined treatment 
discontinuation criterion is met.  
Once the product is commercially marketed and locally accessible, participants should 
complete the study, transition to commercial supply and follow the local label for treatment. 
Astellas is planning to close the clinical study when zolbetuximab (Vyloy) is commercially 
marketed in all countries with active participants and all participants have successfully 
transitioned to an alternative means of drug supply. 
5.1.4.1 Discontinuation of CAPOX (both components) and Continuation of 
Zolbetuximab/Placebo 
If a subject discontinues CAPOX (or either component of CAPOX) due to any reason other 
than locally confirmed or IRC confirmed disease progression, they may continue on 
zolbetuximab/placebo at the discretion of the investigator and until zolbetuximab is 
commercially marketed and locally accessible, provided that all of the following have been 
met: 
● the subject completed at least 2 treatments of CAPOX treatment; 
● the subject will not receive another systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, 
radiotherapy or other treatment intended for antitumor activity; and 
● in the investigator’s opinion the subject continues to derive clinical benefit with 
acceptable toxicity. 
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), 
radiological disease progression will be determined locally and subjects should continue to 
follow the Study Treatment Period Schedule of Assessments [Table 11]. Under Protocol 
Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1) radiological disease 
progression was determined by IRC and subjects followed the Study Treatment Period 
Schedule of Assessments [Table 1].

Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), if both 
zolbetuximab/placebo and CAPOX (both components) are discontinued for reasons other 
than locally or IRC confirmed radiological PD, the subject should enter 30-day safety follow 
up and continue to undergo imaging assessments per Schedule of Assessments [Table 11]. 
Under Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), 
if both zolbetuximab/placebo and CAPOX (both components) are permanently discontinued 
for reasons other than IRC-confirmed radiological PD, the subject should enter the Post-

● 
Other systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, herbal medications or other 
treatments intended for antitumor activity.   
● Palliative radiotherapy for peripheral bone metastases is allowed.  
● For gastric bleeding, palliative radiotherapy is prohibited, but 
esophagogastroduodenoscopy with epinephrine injection is allowed. 
● 
Investigational products or therapy other than zolbetuximab. 
Cautionary Concomitant Treatment  
Considerations should be given to avoid or minimize the use of the following concomitant 
medications, if possible, during zolbetuximab/placebo treatment: 
● 
Systemic corticosteroids, because their impact on the potential efficacy of zolbetuximab 
is not known. 
o Systemic corticosteroids should be avoided or minimized while subject is on study 
treatment unless required for management of an emergent medical condition (e.g., 
severe nausea/vomiting or hypersensitivity reaction).  
o For a subject’s first dose of zolbetuximab/placebo, it is recommended that the 
prophylactic use of corticosteroids be avoided. 
o Inhaled, intranasal, ophthalmic, otic and topically applied steroids are allowed. 
o Subjects are allowed to use a physiologic replacement dose of hydrocortisone or its 
equivalent (defined as up to 30 mg/day of hydrocortisone or up to 10 mg/day of 
prednisone), receive a single dose of systemic corticosteroids or receive systemic 
corticosteroids as pre-medication for radiologic imaging contrast use. 
● 
Administer 5-HT3 blockers with caution in subjects who have or may develop QTc 
prolongation. 
● 
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) because of the potential to cause gastric 
ulcers and covert bleeding.  
o In such cases where NSAID use is necessary, the use of NSAIDs with lower 
gastric ulcerogenic potential is preferred and concomitant gastric protection with 
proton pump inhibitors is recommended.  
The following should be avoided or used with caution and closely monitored during 
capecitabine administration:  
● 
Cytochrome P450 2C9 substrates (Subjects taking coumarin-derivative anticoagulants 
concomitantly with capecitabine should have PT/INR monitored regularly and 
anticoagulant dose adjusted accordingly). 
● 
Anti-epileptic medications (e.g., phenobarbital, phenytoin and primidone)  
The following should be avoided or used with caution and closely monitored during 
oxaliplatin administration: 
● 
Medications known to prolong the QT or QTc interval (refer to

disease specific information as designated in the eCRF. 
5.3 
Efficacy Assessments 
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), 
radiologic imaging will be evaluated locally [Table 11]. Under Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier 
(e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), radiographic imaging was evaluated centrally 
by IRC.  
Radiologic imaging will be evaluated at Screening (within 28 days prior to randomization) 
and every 9 weeks (±7 days) counting from C1D1 for the first 54 weeks and then every 
12 weeks (±7 days) thereafter until subject develops radiological disease progression per 
RECIST 1.1 by local confirmation or IRC confirmation or starts other systemic anticancer 
treatment, whichever comes earlier.  
All radiologically-evaluable disease (measurable and/or non-measurable), per local 
assessment, must be documented at Screening and re-assessed at each subsequent radiologic 
evaluation.  Imaging will include CT scans with contrast of the thorax, abdomen, and pelvis.  
If CT scan with contrast is medically not feasible, MRI may be used for imaging.  Bone scans 
(or focal X-ray) or brain imaging should be performed if metastatic disease in bone or brain 
is suspected, respectively.  The same mode of imaging should be utilized throughout the 
study unless medical necessity requires a change.  For randomized subjects, screening 
imaging should be sent to the central imaging vendor no later than at the time of submission 
of the first on-treatment imaging. All imaging acquired post randomization will be sent to the 
local or central imaging vendor within 7 days of scanning for the blinded IRC assessment of 
radiological tumor response based on RECIST 1.1 [Eisenhauer et al, 2009].  The investigator 
should make every effort to immediately submit radiologic assessments for IRC review when

Vital Signs 
Vital signs, including systolic and diastolic blood pressures (mmHg) and radial pulse rate 
(beats/minute) and temperature, will be obtained and recorded at the times specified in the 
Schedule of Assessments [Table 1].  All vital sign measurements will be obtained in a 
consistent manner (sitting or supine) throughout their study participation.  Height and weight 
will be measured using normal institutional standards. 
If clinically significant vital sign changes from baseline (pretreatment) are noted, the changes 
will be documented as AEs on the AE page of the eCRF.  Clinical significance will be 
defined as a variation in vital signs, which has medical relevance as deemed by the 
investigator that could result in an alteration in medical care.  For clinically significant vital 
sign changes, the investigator will continue to monitor the subject until the parameter returns 
to grade ≤ 1, or to the baseline (pretreatment) value, or until the investigator determines that 
follow up is no longer medically necessary. 
5.4.2 
Observation Period Following Zolbetuximab/Placebo Infusion 
Following the first dose of zolbetuximab/placebo on C1D1, the subject must be observed for 
2 hours post zolbetuximab/placebo infusion.  The post-infusion observation period can be 
conducted during the CAPOX administration.  If ≥ grade 2 AEs are observed during infusion 
or during the post-infusion observation period, subsequent zolbetuximab/placebo infusion 
times should be extended and subjects should continue to be observed for 2 hours post 
zolbetuximab/placebo infusion.  If the subject does not develop any ≥ grade 2 AEs, the 
subject should be observed for 1 hour post-infusion for their subsequent 
zolbetuximab/placebo infusions.  The subject should be instructed to notify site personnel if 
they develop any AEs during this post-infusion observation time period. 
In the event of an IRR with features of anaphylaxis (regardless of grade) or grade 3 or 4 IRR, 
blood samples for cytokine/chemokine panel and serum total tryptase level (levels typically 
peak within 3 hours after the onset of symptoms) should be collected once the subject has 
stabilized, for shipment to the central laboratory.  
5.4.3 
Laboratory Assessments 
Below is a table of the laboratory tests that will be performed during the conduct of the study.  
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), 
laboratory tests will be performed according to the Schedule of Assessments [Table 11] and 
must be sent to the local laboratory for analysis.  
Under Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), 
laboratory tests will be performed according to the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] and 
must be sent to the central laboratory for analysis.

● 
Eligibility can be determined based on central and/or local laboratory testing: 
o 
The most recent laboratory data must be used to confirm the subject’s 
eligibility. In the case of multiple sample collections within 14 days prior to 
randomization, the most recent sample collection with available results should 
be used to determine eligibility. 
o 
Central labs must be collected and submitted to the central laboratory during 
the Screening period. 
o 
If retesting of lab values is necessary to confirm eligibility, local labs can be 
used without requiring additional sample collection for central laboratory 
submission.  
o 
The screening labs used to determine eligibility should be collected within 
14 days prior to randomization. 
● 
Laboratory test results (central or local) will be reviewed by the investigator prior to 
any study treatment. Clinical significance of out-of-range laboratory findings is to be 
determined and documented by the investigator/sub-investigator who is a qualified 
physician. 
● 
Local laboratory results may be used for treatment decisions; however, central 
laboratory samples must also be drawn per protocol and sent to the central laboratory. 
(UNIQUE TO CHINA: Local laboratory results may be used for treatment decisions; 
however, central laboratory samples should also be drawn per protocol and sent to the 
central laboratory unless otherwise approved by the sponsor.) 
● 
Central and local labs may be collected up to 48 hours prior to study treatment. 
● 
Holidays and weekends should be taken into account when scheduling these sample 
collections.

Physical Examination  
Physical examinations will be conducted at visits as outlined in the Schedule of Assessments 
[Table 1].  Each physical exam should include height (at Screening only), weight and ECOG 
performance status.  A full physical exam is required at Screening.  The physical exam only 
needs to be repeated on C1D1 if clinically significant changes from Screening are observed 
(in the opinion of the investigator). For all cycles, the physical examination, weight and 
ECOG performance status assessments can be completed up to 48 hours prior to 
zolbetuximab/placebo administration. Targeted (symptom driven) physical exams should be 
conducted every 3 weeks on day 1 of each cycle.  If clinically significant worsening of 
findings from baseline is noted at any study visit, the changes will be documented as AEs on 
the AE eCRF.  Clinical significance is defined as any variation in physical findings, which 
has medical relevance that could result in an alteration in medical care.  The investigator will 
continue to monitor the subject until the parameter returns to grade ≤ 1, or to the baseline 
condition, or until the investigator determines that follow up is no longer medically 
necessary. 
5.4.5 
Electrocardiogram  
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), a single 
12-lead ECG will be performed at the time points outlined in the Schedule of Assessments 
[Table 11]. 
Under Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), a single 
12-lead ECG will be performed at the time points outlined in the Schedule of Assessments 
[Table 1].  Prior to performing ECG, subjects should rest in supine position for 10 minutes.  
When collected on the same day, ECG should be collected prior to pharmacokinetic samples.  
Additional ECG may be performed based on medical history and investigator medical 
judgment. ECGs will be assessed locally.  Clinically significant findings should be recorded 
as an AE. 
5.4.6 
Performance Status 
The ECOG Scale [Oken et al, 1982] will be used to assess performance status. Refer to 
[Appendix 12.8]. 
5.5 
Adverse Events and Other Safety Aspects 
AE collection will begin from time of full main informed consent and continue through the 
90 days following the last dose of zolbetuximab/placebo and CAPOX (both components).  
Serious adverse events (SAEs), regardless of causality will be collected from the time of full 
main informed consent through 90 days following the last dose of zolbetuximab/placebo and 
CAPOX (both components).  If a participant transitions to commercially marketed 
zolbetuximab or CAPOX and has discontinued from the study, the 30- and 90-day safety 
follow up visits are not required.  
Once participants have transitioned to commercially marketed zolbetuximab, safety 
assessment and reporting should continue as per post-marketing product requirements.

Version 8.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 7 
AEs will be documented at each clinic visit, but can be collected at any time.  Any AE that 
meets the definition of an SAE will also be reported on a separate form to the sponsor.  
5.5.1 
Definition of Adverse Events   
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a study drug, and which 
does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.  An AE can 
therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), 
symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal 
product whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. 
In order to identify any events that may be associated with study procedures and could lead to 
a change in the conduct of the study, Astellas collects AEs even if the subject has not 
received study drug treatment.  AE collection begins after the signing of the full main 
informed consent and will be collected until 90 days after the last dose of study drug or the 
subject is determined to be a screen failure.  
Care will be taken not to introduce bias when detecting AEs and/or SAEs.  Open-ended and 
non-leading verbal questioning of the subject is the preferred method to inquire about 
AE occurrences. 
5.5.1.1 Abnormal Laboratory Findings 
Any abnormal laboratory test result (e.g., hematology, clinical chemistry or urinalysis) or 
other safety assessment (e.g., ECGs, radiology scans, vital signs measurements, physical 
examination), including those that worsen from baseline, that is considered to be clinically 
significant in the medical and scientific judgment of the investigator and not related to 
underlying disease, is to be reported as an (S)AE. 
Any clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding or other abnormal safety assessment 
which is associated with the underlying disease does not require reporting as an (S)AE, 
unless judged by the investigator to be more severe than expected for the subject’s condition. 
Repeating an abnormal laboratory test or other safety assessment, in the absence of any of the 
above criteria, does not constitute an AE.  Any abnormal test result that is determined to be 
an error does not require reporting as an AE. 
5.5.1.2 Potential Cases of Drug-Induced Liver Injury 
Refer to [Appendix 12.5 Liver Safety Monitoring and Assessment] for detailed instructions 
on drug induced liver injury.  Abnormal values in AST and/or ALT concurrent or with 
abnormal elevations in total bilirubin that meet the criteria outlined in [Appendix 12.5 Liver 
Safety Monitoring and Assessment] in the absence of other causes of liver injury, are 
considered potential cases of drug-induced liver injury (potential Hy’s Law cases) and are 
always to be considered important medical events and reported per [Section 5.5.5 Reporting 
of Serious Adverse Events].

5.5.1.3 Disease Progression and Study Endpoints 
Under this protocol, the following event(s) will not be considered as an (S)AE: 
● 
Disease Progression: events including defined study endpoints that are clearly consistent 
with the expected pattern of progression of the underlying disease are not to be recorded 
as AEs unless resulting in death.  These data will be captured as efficacy assessment data 
as outlined in [Section 5.3 Efficacy Assessments].  If there is any uncertainty as to 
whether an event is due to anticipated disease progression and/or if there is evidence 
suggesting a causal relationship between the study treatment and the event, it should be 
reported as an (S)AE.  All deaths up to 90 days after the last dose of study drug must be 
reported as an SAE, even if attributed to disease progression. 
● 
Disease progression can be considered as the worsening of a subject’s condition 
attributable to Gastric or GEJ cancer.  It may be an increase in the severity of the disease 
under study and/or increases in the symptoms of the disease.  The development of new, 
or progression of existing metastases to the primary cancer under study should be 
considered as disease progression not an AE.  Events which are unequivocally due to 
disease progression should not be reported as an AE during the study.   
5.5.2 
Definition of Serious Adverse Events 
An AE is considered “serious” if, in the view of either the investigator or sponsor, it results in 
any of the following outcomes:  
● 
Results in death 
● 
Results in life-threatening event (an AE is considered “life-threatening” if, in the view of 
either the investigator or sponsor, its occurrence places the subject at immediate risk of 
death. It does not include an AE that, had it occurred in a more severe form, might have 
caused death) 
● 
Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity or substantial disruption of the 
ability to conduct normal life functions  
● 
Results in congenital anomaly, or birth defect 
● 
Requires inpatient hospitalization (except for planned procedures as allowed per study) 
or leads to prolongation of hospitalization (except if prolongation of planned 
hospitalization is not caused by an AE).  Hospitalization for treatment/observation/ 
examination caused by AE is to be considered as serious. 
● 
Other medically important events (defined in paragraph below) 
Medical and scientific judgment should be exercised in deciding whether expedited reporting 
is appropriate in other situations, such as important medical events that may not be 
immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the 
subject or may require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed in the 
definition above.  These events, including those that may result in disability/incapacity, 
usually are considered serious.  Examples of such events are intensive treatment in an 
emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or convulsions that 
do not result in hospitalization; or development of drug dependency or drug abuse.

5.5.2.1 Important Medical Events 
If an AE occurs that the sponsor determines to be an Important Medical Event, additional 
information on the event (e.g., investigator confirmation of seriousness, causality) will be 
requested.   
Progression of Gastric or GEJ cancer, including signs and symptoms of progression, should 
not be reported as an SAE unless it results in death within 90 days of the last dose of study 
treatment. For progression-related death reported as an SAE, there should be available 
immediate cause of death reported as the event term. “Death due to disease progression” 
should be recorded as the AE term only when the cause of death cannot be otherwise 
determined. 
5.5.3 
Criteria for Causal Relationship to Study Treatment 
A medically qualified investigator is obligated to assess the relationship between each study 
treatment and each occurrence of each (S)AE.  This medically qualified investigator will use 
medical judgment as well as the RSI [Section 1.3] to determine the relationship.  The 
causality assessment is 1 of the criteria used when determining regulatory reporting 
requirements.  The medically qualified investigator is requested to provide an explanation for 
the causality assessment for each (S)AE and must document in the medical notes that he/she 
has reviewed the (S)AE and has provided an assessment of causality. 
Following a review of the relevant data, the causal relationship between the study treatment 
and each (S)AE will be assessed by answering ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to the question “Do you 
consider that there is a reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by 
the study treatment”. 
When making an assessment of causality, the following factors are to be considered when 
deciding if there is evidence and/or arguments to suggest there is a ‘reasonable possibility’ 
that an (S)AE may have been caused by the study treatment (rather than a relationship cannot 
be ruled out) or if there is evidence to reasonably deny a causal relationship: 
● 
Plausible temporal relationship between exposure to the study treatment and (S)AE onset 
and/or resolution. Has the subject actually received the study treatment?  Did the (S)AE 
occur in a reasonable temporal relationship to the administration of the study treatment?  
● 
Plausibility; i.e., could the event have been caused by the study treatment?  Consider 
biologic and/or pharmacologic mechanism, half-life, literature evidence, drug class, 
preclinical and clinical study data, etc. 
● 
Dechallenge/Dose reduction/Rechallenge:  
o Did the (S)AE resolve or improve after stopping or reducing the dose of the suspect 
drug? Also consider the impact of treatment for the event when evaluating a 
dechallenge experience.  
o Did the (S)AE reoccur if the suspected drug was reintroduced after having been 
stopped?

● 
Laboratory or other test results; a specific lab investigation supports the assessment of 
the relationship between the (S)AE and the study treatment (e.g., based on values pre-, 
during and post-treatment) 
● 
Available alternative explanations independent of study treatment exposure; such as 
other concomitant drugs, past medical history, concurrent or underlying disease, risk 
factors including medical and family history, season, location, etc. and strength of the 
alternative explanation 
There may be situations in which an SAE has occurred and the investigator has minimal 
information to include in the initial report to the sponsor.  However, it is very important that 
the medically qualified investigator always make an assessment of causality for every event 
before the initial transmission of the SAE data to the sponsor.  With limited or insufficient 
information about the event to make an informed medical judgment and in absence of any 
indication or evidence to establish a causal relationship, a causality assessment of ‘no’ is to 
be considered.  In such instance, the investigator is expected to obtain additional information 
regarding the event as soon as possible and to re-evaluate the causality upon receipt of 
additional information.  The medically qualified investigator may revise his/her assessment 
of causality in light of new information regarding the SAE and shall send an SAE follow-up 
report and update the eCRF with the new information and updated causality assessment. 
5.5.4 
Criteria for Defining the Severity of an Adverse Event 
AEs, including abnormal clinical laboratory values, will be graded using the NCI-CTCAE 
v4.03 guidelines. The items that are not stipulated in the NCI-CTCAE v4.03 will be assessed 
according to the criteria below and entered into the eCRF.  
Grade 
Assessment Standard 
1-Mild 
Asymptomatic or mild symptoms, clinical or diagnostic observations 
noted; intervention not indicated. 
2-Moderate 
Local or noninvasive intervention indicated. 
3-Severe 
Medically significant but not immediately life threatening, hospitalization 
or prolonged hospitalization. 
4-Life Threatening 
Life threatening consequences, urgent intervention indicated 
5-Death 
Death related to AE 
5.5.5 
Reporting of Serious Adverse Events 
The collection of AEs and the expedited reporting of SAEs will start following receipt of the 
signed full main informed consent and will continue until 90 days after the last dose of study 
treatment or the subject is determined to be a screen failure. Once patients have transitioned 
to commercially marketed zolbetuximab, safety assessment and reporting should continue as 
per post-marketing product requirements. 
In the case of a SAE, the investigator must contact the sponsor by fax or email immediately 
(within 24 hours of awareness).

transitioned to commercially marketed zolbetuximab, safety assessment and reporting should 
continue as per post-marketing product requirements. 
5.5.7 
Monitoring of Common Serious Adverse Events 
Common SAEs are SAEs commonly anticipated to occur in the study population independent 
of drug exposure. SAEs classified as “common” are provided in [Appendix 12.6 Common 
Serious Adverse Events] for reference.  The list does NOT change the investigator’s 
reporting obligations, nor his obligations to perform a causality assessment, or prevent the 
need to report an AE meeting the definition of an SAE as detailed above.  The purpose of this 
list is to alert the investigator that some events reported as SAEs may not require expedited 
reporting to the regulatory authorities based on the classification of “common SAEs” as 
specified in [Appendix 12.6 Common Serious Adverse Events].  The sponsor will monitor 
these events throughout the course of the study for any change in frequency.  Any changes to 
this list will be communicated to the participating investigational sites.  Investigators must 
report individual occurrences of these events as stated in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious 
Adverse Events].  
5.5.8 
Adverse Events of Special Interest 
In case of zolbetuximab induced nausea, vomiting or hypersensitivity/IRR, infusion rate of 
zolbetuximab/placebo may be reduced or infusion paused or discontinued based on 
investigator’s clinical judgment about severity of toxicity and local standard of care.  
See [Section 5.1.2 Study Treatment Dose Modifications, Delays and Interruptions] and the 
Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines. 
If the AEs of interest are classified as serious, they are to be collected via the SAE worksheet 
and reported within 24 hours as described in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious Adverse 
Events].  
5.5.9 
Special Situations  
Certain Special Situations observed in association with the study treatment(s), such as 
incorrect administration (e.g., wrong dose of study treatment, comparator or background 
therapy) are collected in the eCRF, as Protocol Deviations per [Section 8.2 Major Protocol 
Deviations] or may require special reporting, as described below.  These Special Situations 
are not considered AEs, but do require to be communicated to Astellas as per the timelines 
defined below. 
If a Special Situation is associated with, or results in, an AE, the AE is to be assessed 
separately from the Special Situation and captured as an AE in the eCRF.  If the AE meets 
the definition of a SAE, the SAE is to be reported as described in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of 
Serious Adverse Events] and the details of the associated Special Situation are to be included 
in the clinical description on the Special Situation worksheet.

The Special Situations are: 
● Pregnancy 
● Medication error, Overdose and “Off label use” 
● Misuse/abuse 
● Occupational exposure 
● (Suspicion of) Transmission of infectious agent  
● Suspected Drug-Drug interaction 
5.5.9.1 Pregnancy 
If a female subject becomes pregnant during the study dosing period or within 9 months after 
the final administration of oxaliplatin and 6 months after the final administration of all other 
study drugs, or if a partner of a male subject becomes pregnant during the study dosing 
period or within 6 months from the discontinuation of dosing, the investigator is to report the 
information to the sponsor according to the timelines in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious 
Adverse Events] using the Pregnancy Reporting Form and in the eCRF. 
The expected date of delivery or expected date of the end of the pregnancy, last menstruation, 
estimated conception date, pregnancy result and neonatal data etc., should be included in this 
information. 
While pregnancy itself is not considered to be an AE or SAE, any pregnancy complication or 
termination (including elective termination) of a pregnancy is to be reported for a female 
study subject as an AE in the eCRF or SAE per [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious Adverse 
Events].  For (S)AEs experienced by a female partner of a male subject, (S)AEs are to be 
reported via the Pregnancy Reporting Form.  
Additional information regarding the outcome of a pregnancy when also categorized as an 
SAE is mentioned below: 
● 
“Spontaneous abortion” includes miscarriage, abortion and missed abortion. 
● 
Death of a newborn or infant within 1 month after birth is to be reported as an SAE 
regardless of its relationship with the study drug. 
● 
If an infant dies more than 1 month after the birth, is to be reported if a relationship 
between the death and intrauterine exposure to the study drug is judged as “possible” by 
the investigator. 
● 
Congenital anomaly (including anomaly in miscarried fetus) 
Unless a congenital anomaly is identified prior to spontaneous abortion or miscarriage, the 
embryo or fetus should be assessed for congenital defects by visual examination. (S)AEs 
experienced by the newborn/infant should be reported via the Pregnancy Reporting Form. 
Generally, follow up will be no longer than 6 to 8 weeks following the estimated delivery 
date. 
5.5.9.2 Medication Error, Overdose and “Off-Label Use”

Urgent Safety Measures 
An Urgent Safety Measure (USM) is an intervention, which is not defined by the protocol 
and can be put in place with immediate effect without needing to gain prior approval by the 
sponsor, relevant Competent Authorities, IRB/IEC, where applicable, in order to protect 
study participants from any immediate hazard to their health and/or safety.  Either the 
investigator or the sponsor can initiate a USM.  The cause of a USM can be safety, product or 
procedure related.  
5.5.12 
Reporting Urgent Safety Measures  
In the event of a potential USM, the investigator must contact the Astellas Study Physician 
and/or – unique for JP region – Astellas team member (within 24 hrs of awareness).  Full 
details of the potential USM are to be recorded in the subject’s medical records.  The sponsor 
may request additional information related to the event to support their evaluation.  
If the event is confirmed to be an USM the sponsor will take appropriate action to ensure the 
safety and welfare of the patients.  These actions may include but are not limited to a change 
in study procedures or study treatment, halting further enrollment in the study, or stopping 
the study in its entirety.  The sponsor or sponsor's designee will notify CA and cEC within

Other Measurements, Assessments or Methods 
5.7.1 
Biomarkers 
Tumor tissue and blood/serum/plasma samples described in [Sections 5.7.2 Blood/Serum/ 
Plasma Samples and 5.7.3 Tumor Tissue Samples] may be used for research purposes as 
allowed per local policy to identify genomic and/or other biomarkers that may be associated 
with clinical outcome or dynamic changes associated with zolbetuximab treatment (in terms 
of dose, safety, tolerability and efficacy).  Since the identification of exploratory biomarkers 
that correlate with the efficacy or safety of zolbetuximab treatment may continue to evolve as 
new findings becomes available, additional analyses related to zolbetuximab activity on tumor 
signaling pathways or clinical outcomes may be conducted as allowed per local policy.  
Tumor tissue and blood/serum samples remaining after the specified biomarker assessments 
(e.g., aliquots of tumor cell RNA or DNA) may be used for re-testing, additional analyses as 
defined above or developing, and validating assays related to prediction of response or 
dynamic changes associated with zolbetuximab treatment.  The tumor tissue and 
blood/serum/plasma samples (e.g., aliquots of tumor cell RNA or DNA, peripheral blood 
mononuclear cells) will be stored at the study sponsors’ facility or a contract laboratory 
facility for up to 15 years after database closure, at which time the samples will be destroyed.  
The procedures for the collection, handling and shipping of laboratory samples being 
submitted to the local or central laboratory will be specified in a laboratory manual.

biomarkers including but not limited to chemokines, cytokines, CDC activation, circulating 
DNA soluble factors and genetic markers.   
5.7.3 
Tumor Tissue Samples 
FFPE tumor tissue samples will be obtained for all subjects and sent for central IHC testing 
to evaluate for CLDN18.2, and HER2 status if a previously documented HER2 test result is 
not available. (UNIQUE FOR CHINA: FFPE tumor tissue samples will be obtained for all 
subjects and sent for central IHC testing to evaluate for CLDN18.2 status.)  Tissue from the 
primary site is preferred, however, if a metastatic site is used (excluding bone metastasis), the 
sample should be gastric or GEJ in origin. Archival tumor tissue is preferred, but if the 
specimen is insufficient or unavailable, a biopsy may be performed to obtain a primary tumor 
tissue or tumor tissue from metastatic site (excluding bone metastasis).  Sponsor preapproval 
is required when a biopsy procedure is needed for the sole purpose of determining study 
eligibility.  Optional post-progression tumor tissue sample for exploratory biomarker analysis 
may be collected as allowed per local policy following local or IRC confirmation of disease 
progression and prior to initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy for subjects who sign a 
separate ICF.  Tumor specimens may be analyzed for exploratory biomarkers including but 
not limited to CLDN18.2 expression, immune cells, genetic markers and gene/protein 
expression, as allowed per local policy. 
The investigator, in consultation with other specialists, as needed (e.g., radiology staff) will 
assess the risk associated with obtaining a tumor tissue sample and determine if the subject is 
an appropriate candidate for the procedure.  Biopsies should be obtained in accordance with 
institutional policies/guidelines to minimize risk. Procedures requiring general anesthesia 
should not be performed to obtain a tumor tissue sample; however, if a surgical procedure 
under general anesthesia is performed for a clinical indication, excess tumor tissue may be 
used for research purposes with the consent of the subject.  
(UNIQUE TO CHINA: The tumor tissue will be stored at the study sponsor’s facility or at a 
contract laboratory facility for up to 10 years after study completion, at which time the 
samples will be destroyed, as allowed per local policy. The procedures for the collection, 
handling and shipping of tissue samples being submitted to the central laboratory will be 
specified in a laboratory manual.)

Electronic Clinical Outcome Assessments   
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), all 
eCOAs are discontinued as outlined in the Schedule of Assessments [Table 11].  
Under Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), subjects 
will be asked to complete HRQoL and HRU questionnaires as specified in the Schedule of 
Assessments [Table 1].  The electronic Clinical Outcomes Assessment (eCOA) 
questionnaires should be completed by the subject at Screening (except for HRU), day 1 of 
each cycle (or up to 48 hours) before any antiemetic or drug treatment and before the disease 
status is discussed with the subject using the electronic device provided. When completion by 
the subject is not possible, the questionnaires may be administered to the subject by site 
personnel using the electronic tablet device. For subjects with low literacy or situations where 
required translation is not available, please contact the sponsor for further guidance. 
Assessments will also be collected at study treatment discontinuation and 30 and 90 days post 
zolbetuximab/placebo treatment.  HRQoL and HRU questionnaires are not required at 
CAPOX dosing visits (if different from zolbetuximab/placebo dosing visit), CAPOX 
treatment discontinuation, 30 day safety follow-up and 90 day safety follow-up visits. A 
combined visit can be completed if zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX 
are discontinued on the same day and HRQoL and HRU questionnaires will be required at 
those combined visits. HRQoL will be measured by EORTC QLQ-C30, QLQ-OG25 plus 
STO22 Belching subscale, GP and the EQ5D-5L.  
(UNIQUE TO CHINA: Genomic testing will not be performed on samples from subjects in 
China.) 
5.7.6.1 Quality of Life Questionnaire C30

pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) and a general visual analog scale for health status. 
5.7.6.5 Health Resource Utilization  
The HRU questionnaire is used to assess the number of office visits, hospital stays, and other 
healthcare resource utilization that occur outside of the clinical study. 
5.8 
Total Amount of Blood 
The total amount of blood collected for study assessments for each subject will vary 
depending on how long they stay on treatment.   
At any time during the study, if any laboratory abnormalities are found for a subject or for 
disease assessment, additional blood may be drawn for monitoring. 
Additional blood beyond standard monitoring that will be drawn for this study will include 
draws for eligibility assessment, hematology, chemistry, and coagulation at specific 
study-defined time points, pharmacokinetics, and biomarker sampling. 
The maximum amount of blood collected is approximately 40 mL in cycle 1, and less in later 
cycles. 
(UNIQUE TO CHINA: The maximum amount of blood collected is approximately 10 mL at 
screening, and less in subsequent cycles.)

DISCONTINUATION 
6.1 
Discontinuation of Individual Subject(s) From Study Treatment 
A subject who enrolled in the study and for whom study treatment (zolbetuximab/placebo 
and both components of CAPOX) is permanently discontinued for any reason will be 
assessed as having met study treatment discontinuation criteria.  
As overall survival is the key secondary end-point of the study, all subjects will be followed 
for survival after meeting study treatment discontinuation criteria unless the subject 
withdraws consent or is considered lost to follow-up after repeated attempts to contact or if 
the sponsor discontinues the study.  The reason for discontinuation from study treatment must 
be documented in the subject’s medical records.

Version 8.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 7 
A subject is free to withdraw from the study treatment and/or study for any reason and at any 
time without giving reason for doing so and without penalty or prejudice.  The investigator is 
also free to terminate a subject's involvement in the study at any time if the subject's clinical 
condition warrants it. The subject will be discontinued from study treatment 
(zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX) if any of the following occur: 
● 
Investigator determines it is in the subject’s best interest to discontinue study treatment  
● 
Subject develops radiological disease progression per RECIST 1.1 criteria based on 
assessment locally or by IRC. 
o 
If the investigator believes that the subject is continuing to derive clinical benefit 
(asymptomatic and/or without worsening of performance status or overall health) 
from study treatment, and an increase in tumor burden is not likely to affect vital 
organ function, the subject may remain on study treatment until an additional 
radiologic assessment is completed (≤ 9 weeks from previous radiologic 
assessment). 
▪ 
If the additional radiologic assessment locally or by IRC indicates PD per 
RECIST 1.1, then the subject must be discontinued from study treatment. 
▪ 
If the additional radiologic assessment locally or by IRC does not confirm 
the initial assessment of PD, the subject may continue to receive study 
treatment. 
● 
Subject develops clinical progression per investigator assessment and radiologic 
assessment is not medically feasible to confirm radiologic progression due to the 
subject’s condition.  
● 
Subject starts another systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy or other 
treatment intended for antitumor activity. 
● 
Subject starts another investigational agent or device. 
● 
Subject develops unacceptable toxicity. 
● 
Subject has a delay of zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX treatment 
for > 28 days from when the next zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of 
CAPOX treatment was scheduled to begin (> 49 days from when the last dose of 
zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX treatment began). 
● 
Any clinical AE, laboratory abnormality, or inter-current illness, in the opinion of the 
investigator, indicates continued treatment is not in the best interest of the subject  
● 
Female subject becomes pregnant. 
● 
Significant deviation from the protocol or eligibility criteria as determined by the 
sponsor.

receiving any other anticancer therapy), the subject must be followed according to the 
protocol-specified radiologic assessment schedule until radiological disease progression per 
RECIST 1.1 criteria is confirmed locally or by IRC assessment. 
Study Discontinuation Criteria 
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), the Post 
Treatment Follow-up Period (for PFS) is discontinued with radiological disease progression 
determined locally; see the Schedule of Assessments [Table 11] in [Section 13].  
Participation in the study will end when subjects transition to the commercially marketed and 
locally accessible product (zolbetuximab and/or CAPOX). 
Subjects that completed the 90-Day Safety Follow up Visit(s) treatment period under 
Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1) were eligible 
for the Post-Treatment Follow up Period (for PFS) and were to remain in the study through 
the Survival Follow-up Period (OS is a key secondary study endpoint).  A subject will be 
discontinued from the Post-treatment, Long-term and Survival Follow-up Periods if any of 
the following occur: 
● 
Subject specifically withdraws consent for any further contact with him/her or persons 
previously authorized by the participant to provide this information  
● 
Subject is lost to follow-up despite reasonable efforts by the investigator to locate the 
subject 
● 
Death (from any cause) 
● 
Study termination by the sponsor 
6.1.1 
Lost to Follow Up 
Every reasonable effort is to be made to contact any subject lost to follow-up during the 
course of the study to complete study-related assessments, record outstanding data, and 
retrieve study drug. 
6.2 
Discontinuation of the Site 
If an investigator intends to discontinue participation in the study, the investigator must 
immediately inform the sponsor and, SPECIFIC TO SITES IN JAPAN, the head of the 
study site must also be informed immediately. 
6.3 
Discontinuation of the Study 
If the study is prematurely terminated or suspended the sponsor or designee shall promptly 
inform the investigators, the IECs/IRBs, the regulatory authorities, and any contract research 
organization(s) used in the study of the reason for termination or suspension, as specified by 
the applicable regulatory requirements. 
The study may also be terminated if it is not possible for the sponsor to make a necessary 
adjustment to the maximum insurance sum as required by local law/regulation.

Version 8.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 7 
In case of premature study termination, zolbetuximab may be made available to subjects who 
are still receiving and benefitting from study treatment until a study-defined treatment 
discontinuation criterion is met. 
Astellas is planning to close the study when zolbetuximab (Vyloy) is commercially marketed 
in all countries with active participants.

STATISTICAL METHODOLOGY 
A statistical analysis plan (SAP) will be written to provide details of the analysis, along with 
specifications for tables, listings and figures to be produced The final SAP will be approved 
prior to database hardlock and unblinding the subject treatment assignment.  Changes that 
affected the statistical analyses from the planned analyses in the SAP will be documented in 
the Clinical Study Report (CSR). 
In general, continuous data will be summarized with descriptive statistics (number of 
subjects, mean, standard deviation, minimum, median and maximum) for continuous 
variables, and frequency and percentage for categorical variables. 
Baseline will be defined as the last observation prior to first dose, unless otherwise specified. 
7.1 
Sample Size 
Approximately 500 subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive zolbetuximab in 
combination with CAPOX chemotherapy (Arm A) or placebo in combination with CAPOX 
chemotherapy (Arm B). The planned 300 PFS events during the study will provide 93.4% 
power to detect a difference in PFS between Arm A (zolbetuximab+CAPOX) with the 
assumption of 9 months median PFS time and Arm B (placebo+CAPOX) with the 
assumption of 6 months median PFS time (hazard ratio = 0.67) at the overall 1-sided 0.025 
significance level.  Similarly, the planned 386 OS events during the study will provide 80% 
power to detect a difference in OS between Arm A (zolbetuximab+CAPOX) with the 
assumption of 14.7 months median survival time and Arm B (placebo+CAPOX) with the 
assumption of 11 months median OS time (hazard ratio = 0.75) at the overall 1-sided 0.025 
significance level. 
7.2 
Analysis Sets 
The allocation of subjects to analysis sets will be determined prior to database hard-lock.  For 
each treatment group, the number and percentage of subjects will be characterized for all 
randomized subjects and by each analysis set. 
7.2.1 
Full Analysis Set  
The full analysis set (FAS) will consist of all subjects who are randomized to 1 of the 
treatment arms.  Subjects would be analyzed according to the treatment they were 
randomized to.  The FAS would be used for description of baseline characteristics and all 
efficacy analyses.

Safety Analysis Set  
The safety analysis set (SAF) will consist of all subjects who received at least 1 dose of any 
study drug (zolbetuximab/placebo/CAPOX).  The SAF will be used for all safety analyses.  
Subjects would be analyzed according to the actual treatment they received. 
7.2.3 
Pharmacokinetic Analysis Set (PKAS) 
The pharmacokinetic analysis set (PKAS) consists of the subset of the SAF for which at least 
1 concentration data is available.  Additional subjects may be excluded from the PKAS at the 
discretion of the pharmacokineticist.  The PKAS would be used for description of 
pharmacokinetic data. 
7.3 
Demographics and Baseline Characteristics  
Demographics and other baseline characteristics will be summarized by treatment group and 
overall for FAS and SAF. 
7.3.1 
Subject Disposition  
The number and percentage of subjects who discontinued treatment and reasons for treatment 
discontinuation will be presented for FAS by treatment group and overall.  Similar tables for 
subjects who do not have a PFS event and subjects who do not have observed death will also 
be presented.  All disposition details and dates of first and last evaluations for each subject 
will be listed. 
7.3.2 
Previous and Concomitant Medications  
All previous and concomitant medications will be presented in a listing.  The frequency of 
concomitant medications (prescription, over-the-counter, and nutritional supplements) will be 
summarized.  Any component of CAPOX is not considered concomitant medications. 
7.3.3 
Medical History  
Medical history for each subject will be presented in a listing and summarized. 
7.4 
Analysis of Efficacy  
Efficacy analysis will be conducted on the FAS.  The interpretation of results from statistical 
tests will be primarily based on the FAS. All randomized subjects will be analyzed according 
to the treatment to which they are randomized. 
7.4.1 
Analysis of Primary Endpoint  
7.4.1.1 Primary Analysis 
The primary endpoint is PFS assessed by the blinded IRC.  For each subject, PFS is defined as 
the time from the date of randomization until the date of radiological disease progression 
(i.e., PFS) assessed by IRC, or until death due to any cause, whichever is earlier.  If a subject 
has neither progressed nor died, the subject will be censored at the date of last radiological 
assessment.  Subjects who receive new anticancer therapy before radiological progression will 
be censored at the date of the last radiological assessment before the new anticancer therapy

started.  If progression or death occurs after missing 2 or more scheduled radiological 
assessments, the subject will be censored at the date of last radiological assessment or at the 
date of randomization if no post-baseline radiological assessment is available. 
The primary analysis will be performed when approximately 300 PFS events have been 
observed. 
The distribution of PFS will be estimated for each treatment arm using Kaplan-Meier 
methodology and compared between Arm A and Arm B using log-rank test stratified by: 
● 
Region (Asia vs Non-Asia) 
● 
Number of Organs with Metastatic Sites (0 to 2 vs ≥ 3) 
● 
Prior Gastrectomy (Yes or No) 
The hypothesis testing on the primary analysis will be performed at an overall 1-sided 0.025 
significance level to test the null hypothesis that PFS is not prolonged in Arm A compared to 
Arm B versus the alternative hypothesis that PFS is prolonged in Arm A compared to Arm B. 
In addition, stratified Cox proportional hazard model will be used to estimate the hazard ratio 
and the corresponding 95% CI. 
The primary analysis will be performed using the FAS. 
7.4.1.2 Sensitivity Analysis  
Sensitivity analyses with different censoring rules will be described in the SAP. 
7.4.1.3 Subgroup Analysis 
The analysis described in [Section 7.4.1.1 Primary Analysis] will be conducted in the 
subgroups using the FAS. Subgroups defined by baseline factors will be described in the 
SAP.  
Forest plot will be presented to illustrate the strength of treatment effects across subgroups. 
7.4.2 
Analysis of Secondary Endpoints  
7.4.2.1 Overall Survival 
A key secondary endpoint OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until the 
documented date of death from any cause.  All events of death will be included, regardless of 
whether the event occurred while the subject is still taking study drug or after the subject 
discontinue study drug.  Subjects who are still alive at the time of analysis will be censored at 
the last day known to be alive. 
The distribution of OS will be estimated for each treatment arm using Kaplan-Meier 
methodology and compared between Arm A and Arm B using the log-rank test stratified by 
the same stratification factors used for PFS analysis.  To maintain the overall Type I error 
rate at the 0.025 significance level, the hypothesis testing on OS will be performed only if the 
null hypothesis on the primary analysis is rejected at the overall 1-sided 0.025 significance 
level.  In addition, stratified Cox proportional hazard model will be used to estimate the 
hazard ratio and the corresponding 95% CI.

Version 8.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 7 
7.4.2.2 PF, OG25-Pain, and GHS/QoL Scores 
A key secondary endpoint, TTCD, is defined for the following 3 HRQoL domains: physical 
functioning (PF) and Global Health Status/Quality of Life (GHS/QoL) as collected in the 
EORTC QLQ-C30, and abdominal pain and discomfort (OG25-Pain) as collected in the 
EORTC QLQ-OG25 plus STO22). TTCD is defined as the time from the date of 
randomization until the date of first clinically meaningful deterioration that is confirmed at a 
next scheduled assessment or followed by drop-out resulting in missing data.  
Clinically meaningful deterioration will be defined if a subject’s change from baseline 
exceeds a pre-specified threshold denoting a clinically meaningful change. While clinically 
meaningful thresholds have been derived for EORTC QLQ-30 for some domains (e.g., 10 for 
GHS/QoL in Osoba 1998), an appropriate threshold for this population and for all domains of 
interest will be derived using the study’s data. A separate analysis plan will be developed 
where methods for the estimation of the clinically meaningful threshold will be defined in 
detail and signed off before database lock. The execution of these analysis and derivation of 
the threshold value to be used in the TTCD analysis will also be performed before database 
lock, and the resulting value will be inserted in the clinical SAP in a last amendment again 
before the study is unblinded.  
Subjects who did not experience a confirmed deterioration will be censored at the last eCOA 
assessment. Subjects who have no baseline or post-baseline assessment, or are not able to 
show deterioration due to their baseline value will be censored at randomization. For 
example, if a subject has a baseline GHS/QoL value of 5 and the clinically meaningful 
threshold proves to be 8, then this subject will be censored at baseline. Death or disease 
progression will not be considered as an event. 
Similarly to PFS and OS endpoints, the distribution of TTCD will be estimated for each 
treatment arm using Kaplan-Meier methodology and compared between Arm A and Arm B 
using the log-rank test stratified by the same stratification factors used for PFS and OS 
analysis. To maintain the overall Type I error rate at the 0.025 significance level, the 
hypothesis testing on TTCD will be performed only if the null hypothesis on the OS is 
rejected at the overall 1-sided 0.025 significance level. Specifically, if the null hypothesis on 
the OS is rejected at the overall 1-sided 0.025 significance level, then the TTCD will be 
tested using the gatekeeping procedure with the following order: 
1. Non-inferiority testing for TTCD in PF at 0.025 significance level 
2. Non-inferiority testing for TTCD in OG25-Pain at 0.025 significance level 
3. Non-inferiority testing for TTCD in GHS/QoL at 0.025 significance level 
4. Superiority testing for TTCD in PF at 0.025 significance level 
5. Superiority testing for TTCD in OG25-Pain at 0.025 significance level 
6. Superiority testing for TTCD in GHS/QoL at 0.025 significance level 
A stratified Cox proportional hazard model will be used to estimate the hazard ratio and the 
corresponding 95% CI for the three time-to-event eCOA endpoints.

7.4.2.3 Objective Response Rate 
Best overall response (BOR) is determined once all tumor response data for the subject is 
available.  Subjects will be classified by BOR on study as outlined in RECIST 1.1 criteria.  
For BOR of SD, SD must be documented as present at least once after study entry and at 
least 8 weeks after first dose. 
The ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects with a BOR of CR or PR based on IRC per 
RECIST V1.1.  
The comparison of ORR between Arm A and Arm B will be performed using stratified 
Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test with the same stratification factor used for the PFS 
analysis.  In addition, ORR for each arm will be estimated and corresponding 95% CI will be 
constructed. 
In addition, percent of subjects with CR will be summarized. 
7.4.2.4 Duration of Response 
DOR is defined as the time from the date of the first response of CR or PR (whichever is first 
recorded) as assessed by IRC to the date of radiological progression or death, whichever is 
earlier.  If a subject has not progressed, the subject will be censored at the date of last 
radiological assessment or at the date of first CR/PR if no post-baseline radiological 
assessment is available.  Other censoring used for the PFS analysis will apply to DOR too.  
The distribution of DOR will be estimated for each treatment arm using Kaplan-Meier 
methodology and compared between Arm A and Arm B using the log-rank test stratified by 
the same stratification factors used for the PFS analysis.  In addition, stratified Cox 
proportional hazard model will be used to estimate the hazard ratio and the corresponding 
95% CI. 
7.4.2.5 Health-Related Quality of Life 
HRQoL endpoints will be summarized by descriptive statistics with respect to change from 
baseline for the FAS for each treatment arm. Completion rate for each questionnaire will be 
summarized by time point. Additional analyses will be described in the SAP.  
7.4.3 
Analysis of Exploratory Endpoints  
7.4.3.1 Time to Progression 
TTP is defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of PD (per 
RECIST 1.1 by IRC).  TTP does not include deaths as event.  For deaths before the first 
documented PD by IRC, subjects will be censored at the time of last radiological assessment.  
Kaplan-Meier and log-rank methods will be applied to TTP endpoint. 
7.4.3.2 Progression Free Survival After Subsequent Therapy (PFS2) 
PFS2 is defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of PD (per 
investigator) following subsequent anticancer therapy, death from any cause or start of any 
other anticancer therapy, whichever is earliest.  In cases where PFS2 cannot be reliably

determined, discontinuation of subsequent anticancer treatment may be used as the event 
date. Otherwise, subjects will be censored.  Subjects who are alive and for whom a PFS2 
event date has not been observed should be censored at the last time known to be alive and 
without second objective disease progression.  
The distribution of PFS2 will be estimated for each treatment arm using Kaplan-Meier 
methodology and compared between Arm A and Arm B using stratified log-rank test with the 
same stratification factors used for the PFS analysis.  In addition, stratified Cox proportional 
hazard model will be used to estimate the hazard ratio and the corresponding 95% CI. 
7.4.3.3 Disease Control Rate 
The DCR is defined as the proportion of subjects with a BOR of CR, PR or SD based on 
RECIST 1.1 by IRC.  
The comparison of DCR between Arm A and Arm B will be performed using CMH test with 
the same stratification factor used for PFS analysis.  In addition, DCR for each arm will be 
estimated and corresponding 95% CI will be constructed. 
7.4.3.4 Biomarkers 
Biomarkers may be summarized graphically or descriptively, and summary statistics may be 
tabulated.  Associations between biomarkers and clinical (e.g., efficacy, safety or 
pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics) measures may be performed on subjects who have 
sufficient baseline and on-study measurements to provide interpretable results for specific 
parameters.  Additional post-hoc statistical analyses may be outlined in the SAP. 
7.4.3.5 Health Resource Utilization 
HRU variables will be summarized for each treatment arm.

Analysis of Safety 
All treated subjects will be analyzed according to the treatment they received.   
7.5.1 
Adverse Events  
AEs will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) and 
graded using NCI-CTCAE v4.03.   
Treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an AE observed after starting 
administration of the study treatment and within 30 days after the last dose of study 
treatment.  Late SAE and/or AE is defined as (S)AE that is collected after 30 days post last 
dose of study drug.   
A study drug-related TEAE is defined as any TEAE with a causal relationship of YES by the 
investigator. 
AEs of special interest described in [Section 5.5.8 Adverse Events of Special Interest] will be 
summarized.

7.8 
Interim Analysis (and Early Discontinuation of the Clinical Study) 
To evaluate whether zolbetuximab + CAPOX (Arm A) is beneficial compared to placebo + 
CAPOX (Arm B) while the study is ongoing, a formal OS interim analysis is planned when 
the final PFS analysis occurs with the pre-specified number of PFS events.  A group 
sequential design using the O’Brien-Fleming type alpha-spending function [Lan & DeMets, 
1983] for efficacy will be utilized to control the overall 1-sided 0.025 significance level 
(East®) for the OS analyses.  
The IDMC may recommend terminating the study for favorable results at the formal efficacy 
interim analysis using OS.  In the case of favorable results, the 1-sided significance level for 
superiority is 0.0074, assuming about 70% of the target number of OS events is obtained, for 
the interim OS analysis and 0.0228 for the final OS analysis (Note: The OS significance level 
will be adjusted depending on the number of OS events at the time of interim analysis).  If 
the 1-sided P value of the interim analysis is less than the significance level (and PFS is also 
significant at 1-sided 0.025 alpha), the IDMC may recommend terminating the study for 
success.  If the study is not stopped after the interim analysis, a final OS analysis will occur 
after 100% of the planned death events have been observed. 
The interim OS analysis will be conducted by an Independent Data Analysis Center for 
IDMC.  In addition, safety data reviews during the study will be conducted by the IDMC on a 
periodic basis.  For example, the IDMC will have its first safety data review 6 weeks after the 
40th subject has been randomized and on study drug for 2 cycles (6 weeks) and meetings will 
be conducted regularly thereafter, as determined by the IDMC.  
The full procedures for IDMC safety review will be described in a separate IDMC Charter. 
The analysis for the eCOA endpoints will be performed as the final analysis once OS is 
significant either at the interim OR or at final OS analysis hence there is no interim analysis 
planned for eCOA endpoints.

OPERATIONAL CONSIDERATIONS 
8.1 
Procedure for Clinical Study Quality Control 
8.1.1 
Data Collection 
The investigator or site designee will enter data collected using an electronic data capture 
system.  In the interest of collecting data in the most efficient manner, the investigator or site 
designee should record data (including laboratory values, if applicable) in the eCRF within 
5 days after the subject visit. 
The investigator must maintain accurate documentation (source data) that supports the 
information entered in the eCRF. These documents should be appropriately maintained by 
the site. 
Local laboratory results may be used for treatment decisions; however, central laboratory 
samples must also be drawn per protocol and sent to the central laboratory unless otherwise 
approved by sponsor. (UNIQUE TO CHINA: Local laboratory results may be used for 
treatment decisions; however, central laboratory samples should also be drawn per protocol 
and sent to the central laboratory unless otherwise approved by the sponsor.)  Central 
Laboratory data will be transferred electronically to the sponsor or designee at predefined 
intervals during the study.  The central laboratory will provide the sponsor or designee with a 
complete and clean copy of the data.  
Imaging results are read by a local or central imaging laboratory.  Central imaging data will 
be transferred electronically to the sponsor or designee at predefined intervals during the 
study.  The central imaging laboratory will provide the sponsor or designee with a complete 
and clean copy of the data. 
For Screen failures the demographic data, reason for failing, informed consent, inclusion and 
exclusion criteria and AEs will be collected in the eCRF. 
8.1.1.1 Collection of Data Via Electronic Source  
All procedures conducted under the protocol must be documented.  For screen failures, the 
minimum demographic data (sex, birth date, race and informed consent date), outcome of 
eligibility assessment (inclusion and exclusion criteria), reason for screen failure and AEs 
details must be documented. 
The investigator or designee will be responsible for eCRF completion and for ensuring the 
source data are attributable, legible, contemporaneous, original, accurate and complete 
whether the data are handwritten on paper or entered electronically. If source data are created 
(first entered), modified, maintained, archived, retrieved or transmitted electronically via 
computerized systems (and/or other kind of electronic devices) as part of regulated study 
activities, such systems must be compliant with all applicable laws and regulations governing 
use of electronic records and/or electronic signatures. Such systems may include, but are not 
limited to, electronic medical/health records, protocol-related assessments, AE tracking, 
electronic clinical outcome assessment and/or drug accountability.

of participants are being protected; and that the study is being conducted in accordance with 
the currently approved protocol and any other study agreements, ICH GCP, and all applicable 
regulatory requirements. 
8.1.1.2 Electronic Clinical Outcomes Assessment 
Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), eCOA 
assessments will be discontinued according to the Schedule of Assessments [Table 11]. 
Under Protocol Version 6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), eCOA 
assessments will be performed according to the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1]. Subject 
HRQoL and HRU questionnaires will be completed by the subject or, if not possible, 
administered to the subject by site personnel on an electronic tablet device for subject visits.  
The subject questionnaire responses captured on the electronic device will be transferred to 
the eCOA vendor’s central portal (web portal).  The investigator or site designee should 
review the questionnaire data on the web portal for correct completion while the subject is at 
the site.  The questionnaire data will be transferred electronically to sponsor or designee at 
predefined intervals during the study.  Sponsor/CRO staff also have access to the vendor web 
portal for continuous review of the data and access to reports.  The vendor will provide 
sponsor or designee with a complete and clean copy of the data. 
For further details please refer to the eCOA guidelines/manual (e.g., ERT Site Guide to 
eCOA Product). 
8.2 
Major Protocol Deviations 
A major protocol deviation is generally an unplanned excursion from the protocol that is not 
implemented or intended as a systematic change.  All deviations from the protocol are to be 
recorded. A protocol waiver is a documented prospective approval of a request from an 
investigator to deviate from the protocol.  Protocol waivers are strictly prohibited.

Version 8.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 7 
The investigator is responsible for ensuring the study is conducted in accordance with the 
procedures and evaluations described in this protocol and must protect the rights, safety, and 
welfare of subjects.  The investigator should not implement any deviation from, or changes 
of, the protocol, unless it is necessary to eliminate an immediate hazard to study subjects.   
When a major deviation from the protocol is identified for an individual subject, the 
investigator or designee must ensure the sponsor is notified.  The sponsor will follow up with 
the investigator, as applicable, to assess the deviation and the possible impact to the safety of 
the subject to determine subject continuation in the study.  
Major protocol deviation criteria will be summarized at the end of the study. 
The investigator will also assure that deviations meeting IRB/IEC and applicable regulatory 
authorities’ criteria are documented and communicated appropriately.  All documentation 
and communications to the IRB/IEC and applicable regulatory authorities will be provided to 
the sponsor and maintained within the trial master file.

12.2 
Procedures for Clinical Study Quality Control 
12.2.1 Clinical Study Monitoring 
The sponsor or delegated CRO is responsible for monitoring the clinical study to ensure that 
subject's human rights, safety, and well-being are protected, that the study is properly 
conducted in adherence to the current protocol and GCP, and study data reported by the 
investigator/sub-investigator are accurate and complete and that they are verifiable with 
study-related records such as source documents.  The sponsor is responsible for assigning 
study monitor(s) to this study for proper monitoring.  They will monitor the study in 
accordance with planned monitoring procedures.   
12.2.2 Direct Access to Source Data/Documents 
The investigator and the study site must accept monitoring and auditing by the sponsor or 
delegated CRO as well as inspections from the IRB/IEC and relevant regulatory authorities.  
In these instances, they must provide all study-related records, including source documents 
when they are requested by the sponsor monitors and auditors, the IRB/IEC or regulatory 
authorities.  The confidentiality of the subject's identities shall be well protected consistent 
with local and national regulations when the source documents are subject to direct access. 
Remote source data review will be used when needed. It will focus on the quality control of 
critical data such as primary efficacy data and important safety data. Important secondary

access additional documents and therefore increase the burden for site staff. The sponsor will 
determine the extent and nature of remote source data review that is needed for any 
exceptional situations and will carefully weigh it against the extra burden that introduction of 
any alternative measures would put on site staff and facilities.

Contraception Requirements 
WOCBP participants who choose complete abstinence must continue to have pregnancy 
tests, as specified in Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] and [Table 11]. 
WOMEN OF CHILDBEARING POTENTIAL DEFINITIONS AND METHODS OF 
CONTRACEPTION DEFINITIONS (WOCBP) 
A woman is considered fertile following menarche and until becoming postmenopausal 
unless permanently sterile.  
Women in the following categories are not considered WOCBP 
● 
Premenarchal 
● 
Premenopausal female with 1 of the following: 
● Documented hysterectomy 
● Documented bilateral salpingectomy 
● Documented bilateral oophorectomy 
● 
Postmenopausal 
Documentation of any of these categories can come from the site personnel’s review of the 
female subject’s medical records, medical examination, or medical history interview. 
A postmenopausal state is defined as at least 12 months after last regular menstrual bleeding 
without an alternative medical cause.  
● 
In case the last regular menstrual bleeding cannot be clearly determined, confirmation 
with repeated FSH measurements of at least > 40 IU/L (or higher per local institutional 
guidelines), is required.  
Females on HRT and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the 
non-estrogen hormonal highly effective contraception methods if they wish to continue their 
HRT during the study.  Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of 
postmenopausal status by repeated FSH measurements before study enrollment. 
CONTRACEPTION GUIDANCE FOR FEMALE PARTICIPANTS OF CHILD 
BEARING POTENTIAL 
One of the highly effective methods of contraception listed below is required at the time of 
informed consent and until the end of relevant systemic exposure, defined as 9 months after 
the final administration of oxaliplatin and 6 months after the final administration of all other 
study drugsa.  
Highly Effective Contraceptive Methods (Failure rate of <1% per year when used 
consistently and correctly)b 
Combined (estrogen- and progestogen-containing) hormonal contraception associated with 
inhibition of ovulation

Vasectomized partner (A vasectomized partner is a highly effective contraception method 
provided that the partner is the sole male sexual partner of the WOCBP and the absence of 
sperm has been confirmed. If not, an additional highly effective method of contraception 
should be used.) 
Sexual abstinence (Sexual abstinence is considered a highly effective method only if defined 
as refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the entire period of risk associated with 
the study drug. The reliability of sexual abstinence needs to be evaluated in relation to the 
duration of the study and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. It is not 
necessary to use any other method of contraception when complete abstinence is elected.) 
a Local laws and regulations may require use of alternative and/or additional contraception 
methods. 
b Typical use failure rates may differ from those when used consistently and correctly. Use 
should be consistent with local regulations regarding the use of contraceptive methods for 
participants participating in clinical studies. 
CONTRACEPTION GUIDANCE FOR MALE PARTICIPANTS WITH PARTNER(S) 
OF CHILD BEARING POTENTIAL. 
Male participants with female partners of childbearing potential are eligible to participate if 
they agree to the following during treatment and until the end of relevant systemic exposure 
defined as 6 months after final drug administration. 
● 
Inform any and all partner(s) of their participation in a clinical drug study and the need to 
comply with contraception instructions as directed by the investigator. 
● 
Male participants are required to use a condom during treatment and until end of relevant 
systemic exposure defined as 6 months after final drug administration. 
● 
Female partners of male participants who have not undergone a vasectomy with the 
absence of sperm confirmed or a bilateral orchiectomy should consider use of effective 
methods of contraception until the end of relevant systemic exposure, defined as 
6 months after final drug administration.

Prohibited Concomitant Treatment  
The following are strictly prohibited: 
● 
Sorivudine or analogs (during capecitabine treatment) 
● 
Concurrent non-steroid systemic immunosuppressive agents (for systemic 
corticosteroids, see cautionary concomitant treatment below). 
● 
Live vaccines should be avoided during the treatment period in which subject is 
receiving oxaliplatin or capecitabine and up to 6 months after final oxaliplatin or 
capecitabine dose. In cases where a live vaccine is needed for COVID-19 prevention and 
allowed per local regulations, please contact the Medical Monitor for discussion. 
● 
Other systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, herbal medications or other 
treatments intended for antitumor activity.   
● Palliative radiotherapy for peripheral bone metastases is allowed.  
● For gastric bleeding, palliative radiotherapy is prohibited, but 
esophagogastroduodenoscopy with epinephrine injection is allowed. 
● 
Investigational products or therapy other than zolbetuximab. 
Cautionary Concomitant Treatment  
Considerations should be given to avoid or minimize the use of the following concomitant 
medications, if possible, during zolbetuximab/placebo treatment: 
● 
Systemic corticosteroids, because their impact on the potential efficacy of zolbetuximab 
is not known. 
o 
Systemic corticosteroids should be avoided or minimized while subject is on 
study treatment unless required for management of an emergent medical condition 
(e.g., severe nausea/vomiting or hypersensitivity reaction).  
o 
For a subject’s first dose of zolbetuximab/placebo, it is recommended that the 
prophylactic use of corticosteroids be avoided. 
o 
Inhaled, intranasal, ophthalmic, otic and topically applied steroids are allowed. 
o 
Subjects are allowed to use a physiologic replacement dose of hydrocortisone or 
its equivalent (defined as up to 30 mg/day of hydrocortisone or up to 10 mg/day 
of prednisone), receive a single dose of systemic corticosteroids or receive 
systemic corticosteroids as pre-medication for radiologic imaging contrast use. 
● 
Administer 5-HT3 blockers with caution in subjects who have or may develop QTc 
prolongation. 
● 
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) because of the potential to cause gastric 
ulcers and covert bleeding.  
o 
In such cases where NSAID use is necessary, the use of NSAIDs with lower 
gastric ulcerogenic potential is preferred and concomitant gastric protection with 
proton pump inhibitors is recommended.

Liver Safety Monitoring and Assessment 
Any subject enrolled in a clinical study with active drug therapy and reveals an increase of 
serum aminotransferases (AT) to > 3 x ULN (to > 5 x ULN in subjects with liver metastases) 
or bilirubin > 2 x ULN should undergo detailed testing for liver enzymes (including at least 
ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase [ALP] and total bilirubin).  Testing should be repeated 
within 72 hours of notification of the test results.  For studies for which a central laboratory is 
used, alerts will be generated by the central laboratory regarding moderate and severe liver 
abnormality to inform the investigator, study monitor and study team.  Subjects should be 
asked if they have any symptoms suggestive of hepatobiliary dysfunction. 
Definition of Liver Abnormalities 
Confirmed abnormalities will be characterized as moderate and severe where ULN: 
  
ALT or AST 
 
Total Bilirubin 
Moderate 
> 3 x ULN (in subjects without liver metastases), 
> 5 x ULN (in subjects with liver metastases) 
or 
> 2 x ULN 
Severe* 
> 3 x ULN 
and 
> 2 x ULN 
In addition, the subject should be considered to have severe hepatic abnormalities for any of 
the following: 
● 
ALT or AST > 8 x ULN. 
● 
ALT or AST > 5 x ULN for more than 2 weeks (in the absence of liver metastases). 
● 
ALT or AST > 3 x ULN and International Normalized Ratio (INR) > 1.5 (If INR testing 
is applicable/evaluated). 
● 
ALT or AST > 3 x ULN with the appearance of fatigue, nausea, vomiting, right upper 
quadrant pain or tenderness, fever, rash and/or eosinophilia (> 5%).  
The investigator may determine that abnormal liver function results, other than as described 
above, may qualify as moderate or severe abnormalities and require additional monitoring and 
follow-up. 
Follow-up Procedures 
Confirmed moderate and severe abnormalities in hepatic functions should be thoroughly 
characterized by obtaining appropriate expert consultations, detailed pertinent history, physical 
examination and laboratory tests.  The site staff is to complete the liver abnormality case report 
form (LA-CRF).  Subjects with confirmed abnormal liver function testing should be followed 
as described below.  
Confirmed moderately abnormal LFTs should be repeated 2 to 3 times weekly then weekly or 
less if abnormalities stabilize or the study treatment has been discontinued and the subject is 
asymptomatic.   
Severe hepatic liver function abnormalities as defined above, in the absence of another etiology 
may be considered an important medical event and may be reported as a SAE.  The sponsor

should be contacted and informed of all subjects for whom severe hepatic liver function 
abnormalities possibly attributable to study treatment are observed. 
To further assess abnormal hepatic laboratory findings, the investigator is expected to: 
● Obtain a more detailed history of symptoms and prior or concurrent diseases.  Symptoms 
and new-onset diseases is to be recorded as “AEs” in the (e)CRF.  Illnesses and 
conditions such as hypotensive events, and decompensated cardiac disease that may lead 
to secondary liver abnormalities should be noted.  Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis is seen in 
obese hyperlipoproteinemic, and/or diabetic subjects and may be associated with 
fluctuating AT levels.  The investigator should ensure that the medical history form 
captures any illness that predates study enrollment that may be relevant in assessing 
hepatic function.  
● 
Obtain a history of concomitant drug use (including nonprescription medication, 
complementary and alternative medications), alcohol use, recreational drug use and 
special diets.  Medications, including dose, is to be entered in the (e)CRF.  Information 
on alcohol, other substance use and diet should be entered on the LA-CRF or an 
appropriate document. 
● 
Obtain a history of exposure to environmental chemical agents. 
● 
Based on the subject’s history, other testing may be appropriate including:  
o Acute viral hepatitis (A, B, C, D, E or other infectious agents),  
o Ultrasound or other imaging to assess biliary tract disease, 
o Other laboratory tests including INR, direct bilirubin. 
● 
Consider gastroenterology or hepatology consultations. 
● 
Submit results for any additional testing and possible etiology on the LA-CRF or an 
appropriate document. 
Study Treatment Discontinuation 
In the absence of an explanation for increased LFT’s, such as viral hepatitis, preexisting or 
acute liver disease, presence of liver metastases or exposure to other agents associated with 
liver injury, the subject may be discontinued from study treatment.  The investigator may 
determine that it is not in the subject’s best interest to continue study treatment. 
Discontinuation of study treatment should be considered if: 
● 
ALT or AST > 8 x ULN. 
● 
ALT or AST > 5 x ULN for more than 2 weeks (in subjects without liver metastases). 
● 
ALT or AST > 3 x ULN and total bilirubin > 2 x ULN or INR > 1.5 (If INR testing is 
applicable/evaluated). 
● 
ALT or AST > 5 x ULN and (total bilirubin > 2 x ULN in subjects with liver 
metastases). 
● 
ALT or AST > 3 x ULN with the appearance of fatigue, nausea, vomiting, right upper 
quadrant pain or tenderness, fever, rash and/or eosinophilia (> 5%).  
In addition, if close monitoring for a subject with moderate or severe hepatic laboratory tests 
is not possible, study treatment should be discontinued.

*Hy’s Law Definition—The 2 “requirements” for Hy’s Law are:  
1. Evidence that a drug can cause hepatocellular-type injury, generally shown by a higher rate 
than control of people with 3 x and greater transaminase elevations over ULN (2 x 
elevations are too common in treated and untreated subjects to be discriminating). 
2. Cases of increased bilirubin (to at least 2 x ULN) in people with concurrent transaminase 
elevation to at least 3 x ULN (but it is almost invariably higher) and no evidence of intra-or 
extra-hepatic bilirubin obstruction (elevated ALP) or Gilbert’s syndrome. [Temple, 2006] 
FDA Guidance for Industry, “Drug-Induced Liver Injury: Premarketing Clinical Evaluation” 
2009: 
1. The drug causes hepatocellular injury, generally shown by a higher incidence of 3-fold or 
greater elevations above the ULN of ALT or AST than the (non-hepatotoxic) control drug 
or placebo. 
2. Among study subjects showing such AT elevations, often with ATs much greater than 
3 x ULN, 1 or more also show elevation of serum total bilirubin to > 2 x ULN, without 
initial findings of cholestasis (elevated serum ALP). 
3. No other reason can be found to explain the combination of increased AT and total 
bilirubin, such as viral hepatitis A, B or C; preexisting or acute liver disease; or another 
drug capable of causing the observed injury.

Common Serious Adverse Events 
The following is a list of SAEs that the sponsor considers to be associated with the disease 
state being studied.  The list does NOT change your reporting obligations or prevent the need 
to report an AE meeting the definition of an SAE as detailed in [Section 5.5.2 Definition of 
Serious Adverse Events].  The purpose of this list is to alert the investigator that some events 
reported as SAEs may not require expedited reporting to the regulatory authorities based on 
the classification of “common SAEs”.  The investigator is required to follow the 
requirements detailed in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious Adverse Events]. 
For IND safety reporting, single occurrences of the following events may be excluded from 
expedited reporting to the FDA.  If aggregate analysis of these events indicates they occur 
more frequently with study treatment, an expedited IND safety report may be submitted to 
the FDA.   
AEs most likely related to Gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma: 
● Gastric reflux 
● Abdominal pain 
● Abdominal distention 
● Dysphagia 
● Loss of appetite

Pharmacogenomic Analysis with Banked Sample 
INTRODUCTION 
The pharmacogenomic (PGx) research aims to provide information regarding how naturally 
occurring differences in a subject’s gene and/or expression of genes based on genetic 
variation may impact what treatment options are best suited for the subject.  Through 
investigation of PGx by technologies such as genotyping, gene sequencing, statistical 
genetics and Genome-Wide Association Studies, the relationship between gene profiles and a 
drug’s kinetics, efficacy or toxicity may be better understood.  As many diseases may be 
influenced by 1 or more genetic variations, PGx research may identify which genes are 
involved in determining the way a subject may or may not respond to a drug. Samples for 
PGx are optional and will only be collected as allowed per local policy. 
OBJECTIVES 
The PGx research that may be conducted in the future with acquired blood samples is 
exploratory.  The objective of this research will be to analyze or determine genes of 
relevance to clinical response, pharmacokinetics and toxicity/safety issues. 
By analyzing genetic variations, it may be possible to predict an individual subject’s response 
to treatment in terms of efficacy and/or toxicity. 
SUBJECT PARTICIPATION 
Subjects who have consented to participate in this study may participate in this PGx 
sub-study, if applicable per local policy.  Subjects must provide written consent prior to 
providing any blood samples that may be used at a later time for PGx analysis. 
SAMPLE COLLECTION AND STORAGE 
Subjects who consent to participate in this sub-study will provide one tube of whole blood of 
approximately 4–6 mL per Astellas’ instructions.  Each sample will be identified by the 
unique subject number.  Samples will be shipped to a designated banking CRO as directed by 
Astellas. 
PGx ANALYSIS 
Details on the potential PGx analysis cannot be established yet.  Astellas may initiate the 
PGx analysis if evidence suggests that genetic variants may be influencing the drug’s 
kinetics, efficacy and/or safety.  
DISPOSAL OF PGx SAMPLES/DATA 
All PGx samples collected will be stored for a period of up to 15 years following study 
database hard-lock.  If there is no requirement for analysis, the whole blood sample will be 
destroyed after the planned storage period.  The subject has the right to withdraw consent at 
any time.  When a subject’s withdraw notification is received, the PGx sample will be 
destroyed.  The results of any PGx analysis conducted on a sample prior to its withdrawal 
will be retained at Astellas indefinitely unless otherwise specified by local regulation.

Clinical Study Continuity 
INTRODUCTION 
The purpose of this appendix is to provide acceptable alternate methods to assess safety and 
efficacy parameters, as appropriate, in the event the clinical study is interrupted at the 
country, state, site or participant level during any crisis (e.g., natural disaster, pandemic).    
BENEFIT-RISK RATIONALE 
Maintaining the safety of clinical study participants and delivering continuity of care in the 
clinical study setting is paramount during any crisis. The site is expected to follow the 
protocol and associated Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] and [Table 11] unless the site PI 
determines the need to implement the alternate measures. The PI should notify Astellas 
and/or their CRA when these alternate measures are needed.  
The approach outlined within this appendix defines which assessments are required to 
maintain a favorable benefit/risk to the participant, to maintain overall study integrity and to 
provide acceptable alternate methods to complete the study required assessments and 
procedures if study activities are unable to be performed as described in [Table 1] and  
[Table 12] due to a crisis. 
INFORMED CONSENT 
Participants who need to follow any or all of the alternate measures outlined in this Appendix 
will be required to provide informed consent, which explicitly informs them of the nature of, 
and rationale for these changes, and gain their agreement to continue participation in the 
study prior to the implementation of any of these changes. In the event the urgency of 
implementing the alternate measures does not allow for the participant to provide written 
consent prior to implementation, the PI or designee will obtain oral agreement from the 
subject followed by written documentation as soon as is feasible. A separate addendum to the 
study informed consent will be provided to document the participant’s consent of the 
changes. 
PARTICIPANT PROCEDURES ASSESSMENT 
Sites with participants who are currently enrolled into this clinical study may consider 
implementing the alternate methods outlined below if one or more of the following 
conditions are met due to the crisis: 
● 
Regional or local travel has been restricted, inclusive of mandatory shelter in place 
measures, which makes participant travel to/from the study site nearly impossible 
● 
Site facilities have been closed for clinical study conduct  
● 
Site has been restricted to treating patients with conditions outside of the scope of the 
study 
● 
Site personnel have temporarily relocated the conduct of the study to a location that 
place a burden on the participant with respect to time and travel 
● 
Participant(s) have temporarily relocated from the current study site to an alternate study 
site to avoid placing a burden on the participant with respect to travel

†In case subjects are unable to be evaluated in person on Day 1 of each cycle, the site will contact the subject by phone for a safety assessment at the time the next visit would be due. 
††Additional non-protocol-specific testing may be required per local regulations. Local and/or regional protocols or precautions for COVID-19 management should be followed as 
applicable. 
*+7 calendar day visit window does not apply to C1D1. 
1. Screening: The Screening period is 45 days from full main ICF signature. Retesting of lab values is allowed within the 45-day Screening period. Re-screening outside the 45-day 
window under a new subject number may be allowed once and upon discussion with the Medical Monitor. CT scans and MRIs conducted as part of a subject’s routine clinical 
management (i.e., standard of care) obtained before signing the ICF may be utilized for screening or baseline purposes, provided the procedures met the protocol-specified criteria 
and were performed within the Screening period.  
• Optional partial screening: A partial screening ICF may be available for central testing of tissue for CLDN18.2 and HER2 only. (UNIQUE TO CHINA: A partial screening 
ICF may be available for central testing of tissue for CLDN18.2 only). 
• Laboratory testing: 
• Eligibility can be determined based on central and/or local laboratory testing; however: 
o The most recent laboratory tests with available results must be used to confirm the subject’s eligibility. 
o Central labs must be collected and submitted to the central laboratory during the Screening period. 
o If retesting of lab values is necessary to confirm eligibility, local labs can be used without requiring additional sample collection for central laboratory submission.  
• The screening labs used to determine eligibility should be collected within 14 days prior to randomization. 
• Radiologic imaging used to confirm eligibility must be conducted within 28 days prior to randomization. 
2. CLDN18.2 and HER2 Testing: FFPE tumor tissue will be collected for central testing to determine CLDN18.2 and HER2 status.  (UNIQUE TO CHINA: FFPE tumor tissue will 
be collected for central testing to determine CLDN18.2 status.)  Archival tumor tissue from the primary tumor (gastric or GEJ) is preferred. If primary tumor tissue is not available, 
tumor tissue from a metastatic site (excluding bone metastasis) may be used.  A minimum of 1 FFPE tumor tissue block (preferred) OR a minimum of 15 FFPE unstained slides 
are required as allowed per local policy.  If slides are submitted, the slides should be freshly cut from the FFPE block within the time frame described in the laboratory manual.  If 
local HER2 results are already available from local testing, a minimum of 12 FFPE unstained slides are required to be submitted to the central lab as allowed per local policy.  If 
the specimen is insufficient or unavailable, a biopsy may be performed to obtain primary tumor tissue (preferred) or tumor tissue from metastatic site (excluding bone metastasis).  
Sponsor pre-approval is required when the sole purpose of the biopsy procedure is to assess eligibility for this study.  (UNIQUE TO CHINA: Five FFPE unstained slides are 
required, as allowed per local policy.)  If the required number of slides cannot be provided, the sponsor or designee should be contacted for further guidance. See [Section 5.7.3 
Tumor Tissue Samples]. 
3. Confirmation of Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria must be completed prior to randomization.  
4. Randomization: After confirmation of eligibility, the blinded site user will perform the randomization IRT transaction.  The unblinded pharmacist/designee will be notified by the 
IRT system about the randomly assigned treatment.  Randomization may be performed prior to C1D1. If C1D1 cannot be performed within 5 calendar days from Randomization 
please contact the Medical Monitor for discussion. Details of infusion preparation and storage requirements are defined in the Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines.

5. Antiemetic Pretreatment: Antiemetic premedication (prophylactic antiemetics) should be administered prior to each study treatment. IV antiemetic premedication should be 
initiated prior to treatment, or oral antiemetic premedication should be initiated at a minimum of 30 minutes prior to treatment. Antiemetic premedication should be given 
according to institutional standard of care, published guidelines and the respective product package insert(s). For further details, see [Section 5.1.1.2 Antiemetics]. 
6. Zolbetuximab/placebo will be administered as a minimum 2-hour intravenous infusion every 3 weeks starting on C1D1. Please refer to Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines 
for more detailed information. Zolbetuximab/placebo should be administered prior to CAPOX.  For further details, see [Section 5.1.1.1 Zolbetuximab/Placebo]. 
7. Post-infusion Observation Period: Following the first dose of zolbetuximab/placebo on C1D1, the subject must be observed for 2 hours post-zolbetuximab/placebo infusion.  The 
post-infusion observation period can be conducted during the CAPOX administration.  If any ≥ grade 2 AEs are observed during infusion or during the post-infusion observation 
period, subsequent zolbetuximab/placebo infusion times should be extended and subjects should continue to be observed for 2 hours post zolbetuximab/placebo infusion.  If the 
subject does not develop any grade ≥ 2 AEs, the subject should be observed for 1 hour post-infusion for their subsequent zolbetuximab/placebo infusions.  The subject should be 
instructed to notify site personnel if they develop any AEs during this observation time period. In the event of an IRR with features of anaphylaxis (regardless of grade) or grade 3 
or 4 IRR, blood samples for cytokine/chemokine panel and serum total tryptase level (levels typically peak within 3 hours after the onset of symptoms) should be collected once 
the subject has stabilized, for shipment to the central laboratory. See Observation Period following zolbetuximab/placebo infusion [Section 5.4.2] for further details.  
8. CAPOX is a combination of oxaliplatin intravenous infusion and capecitabine tablets and will be administered starting at C1D1 for up to 8 treatments. See [Section 5.1.1.3]. 
9. Physical Exam: should include height (at Screening only), weight and ECOG performance status.  A full physical exam is required at Screening.  The physical exam only needs to 
be repeated on C1D1 if clinically significant changes from screening are observed (in the opinion of the investigator). For all cycles, the physical examination, weight and ECOG 
performance status assessments can be completed up to 48 hours prior to zolbetuximab/placebo administration. Targeted (symptom driven) physical exams should be conducted 
every 3 weeks on day 1 of each cycle.  For further details, see [Section 5.4.4 Physical Examination] 
10. Vital signs (pulse, blood pressure, temperature) should be taken during every visit at the following time points (see [Section 5.4.1 Vital Signs]): 
o Predose at every visit  
o C1D1: Every 30 (±10) minutes during zolbetuximab/placebo infusion  
o If the subject did not develop any ≥ grade 2 AEs during the C1D1 zolbetuximab/placebo infusion or Post-infusion Observation Period, the site may do the following for 
subsequent zolbetuximab/placebo infusions: 
▪ 
The post-infusion observation period can be 1 hour for subsequent visits after C1D1 
▪ 
The vital signs can be assessed every 60 minutes for subsequent visits after C1D1 
o Every 60 (±10) minutes post zolbetuximab/placebo infusion during the Post-infusion Observation Period (for 1 or 2 hours. See footnote 7) 
o Unscheduled if clinically indicated

11. ECGs: ECGs will be locally assessed.  When collected on the same day, ECG should be collected prior to pharmacokinetic samples.  For further details, see [Section 5.4.5 
Electrocardiogram].  A single ECG will be performed at the following time points: 
o Screening 
o Up to 48 hours prior to every oxaliplatin infusion (before any antiemetic treatment administration) 
o Up to 6 hours following completion of every oxaliplatin infusion 
o Zolbetuximab/placebo Discontinuation Visit (if clinically indicated) 
o Zolbetuximab/placebo 30-day Follow-up Visit (if clinically indicated) 
o If clinically indicated or per local requirements 
12. Imaging Assessments: Radiologic imaging will be evaluated at Screening (must be conducted within 28 days prior to randomization) and every 9 weeks (± 7 days) counting from 
C1D1 for the first 54 weeks and then every 12 weeks (± 7 days) thereafter until subject develops radiological disease progression per RECIST 1.1 by IRC or starts other systemic 
anticancer treatment, whichever comes earlier.  Imaging schedule should be maintained regardless of treatment delay.  Imaging will include CT scans with contrast of the thorax, 
abdomen, and pelvis.  If CT scan with contrast is medically not feasible, MRI may be used for imaging.  Bone scans (or focal X-ray) or brain imaging should be performed if 
metastatic disease in bone or brain is suspected, respectively.  The same mode of imaging should be utilized throughout the study unless medical necessity requires a change. For 
randomized subjects, screening imaging should be sent to the central imaging vendor no later than at the time of submission of the first on-treatment imaging. All imaging acquired 
post randomization will be sent to the central imaging vendor within 7 days of scanning for the blinded independent central assessment of radiological tumor response based on 
RECIST 1.1.  The investigator should make every effort to immediately submit radiologic assessments for IRC review when PD is suspected. See [Section 5.3 Efficacy 
Assessments]. Refer to Imaging Acquisition Guidelines for further detail on scan modality and contrast options. 
13. Laboratory Assessments: See [Section 5.4.3 Laboratory Assessments] for list of laboratory assessments. Laboratory tests must be sent to the central laboratory for analysis.  For 
screening/eligibility laboratory assessments, see footnote number 1. 
• Laboratory test results (central or local) will be reviewed by the investigator prior to any study treatment. Clinical significance of out-of-range laboratory findings is to be 
determined and documented by the investigator/sub-investigator who is a qualified physician. 
• Local laboratory results may be used for treatment decisions; however, central laboratory samples must also be drawn per protocol and sent to the central laboratory.  
(UNIQUE TO CHINA: Local laboratory results may be used for treatment decisions; however, central laboratory samples should also be drawn per protocol and sent to the 
central laboratory unless otherwise approved by the sponsor.) 
• Central and local labs may be collected up to 48 hours prior to study treatment. 
• Holidays and weekends should be taken into account when scheduling these blood draws. 
• Additional assessments may be done centrally or locally to monitor AEs or as clinically indicated.  
14. Coagulation (PT, PTT and INR): Coagulation tests should be done at Screening and during study treatment period if clinically indicated.  Local or central lab results may be used 
to confirm eligibility. Ongoing evaluation should be continued for subjects who are receiving therapeutic anticoagulation according to local standard of care. See [Section 5.4.3 
Laboratory Assessments]. 
15. Serum Pregnancy Test: Serum pregnancy tests will be collected for female subjects of childbearing potential only.  Serum pregnancy tests collected at Screening, during study 
treatment period and if clinically indicated or per local requirements. Serum pregnancy test can be completed up to 48 hours prior to zolbetuximab/placebo administration. (Note: 
For Screening, subjects with elevated serum βHCG and a demonstrated non-pregnant status through additional testing are eligible.) Local or central laboratory results may be used 
to confirm eligibility.

period every 3 weeks on day 1 of each cycle and at the zolbetuximab/placebo Study Treatment Discontinuation and 30-day Safety Follow-up Visits. Urine pregnancy test can be 
completed up to 48 hours prior to zolbetuximab/placebo administration. Additional urine pregnancy testing for up to 9 months after the final study treatment administration may be 
conducted based on local requirements. 
17. HRQoL and HRU questionnaires: eCOA questionnaires should be completed by the subject at Screening (except for HRU), on day 1 of each cycle (or up to 48 hours) before any 
antiemetic or drug treatment and before the disease status is discussed with the subject using the electronic tablet device provided. When completion by the subject is not possible, 
the questionnaires may be administered to the subject by site personnel using the electronic tablet device. For subjects with low literacy, situations where translations are 
unavailable or other circumstances preventing the screening questionnaires to be completed, please contact the sponsor for further guidance. 
18. Study Treatment Discontinuation Visit (End of Study Treatment): The Study Treatment Discontinuation Visit will take place ≤ 7 days following the decision to discontinue study 
treatment (zolbetuximab/placebo and CAPOX [both components]). If zolbetuximab/placebo and CAPOX (both components) are discontinued on a different day, subjects will have 
separate Study Treatment Discontinuation Visits following each treatment’s discontinuation. Laboratory tests must be sent to the central laboratory for analysis. HRQoL and HRU 
questionnaires are not required at CAPOX treatment discontinuation visit. A combined visit can be completed if zolbetuximab/placebo are discontinued on the same day. If 
necessary during a crisis, this visit can be completed remotely for safety assessments and the required laboratory samples should be collected as soon as the crisis permits. 
19. 30-day Safety Follow-up Visit: A 30-day Safety Follow-up Visit should occur 30 days after the last dose of zolbetuximab/placebo and will include the assessments as shown in the 
Schedule of Assessments above.  A 30-day Safety Follow-up Visit should occur 30 days after the last dose of CAPOX (both components) and may be conducted by phone if the 
subject is unable to visit the site and will require contact for AE/SAE collection only. HRQoL and HRU questionnaires are not required at CAPOX 30-day safety follow up visit. A 
combined visit can be completed if zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX are discontinued on the same day and HRQoL and HRU questionnaires should be 
completed for a combined visit. If necessary during a crisis, this visit can be completed remotely for safety assessments and the required laboratory samples should be collected as 
soon as the crisis permits. 
20. 90-day Safety Follow-up Visits: A 90-day Safety Follow-up Visit should occur 90 days after the last dose of zolbetuximab/placebo and will include the assessments as shown in 
the Schedule of Assessments above.  A 90-day Safety Follow-up Visit should occur 90 days after the last dose of CAPOX (both components) and may be conducted by phone if 
the subject is unable to visit the site and will require contact for AE/SAE collection only. HRQoL and HRU questionnaires are not required at CAPOX 90-day safety follow up 
visit. A combined visit can be completed if zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX are discontinued on the same day and HRQoL and HRU questionnaires should 
be completed for a combined visit. 
21. Post-treatment Follow-up: if a subject discontinues all study treatments (zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX) prior to IRC-confirmed radiological disease 
progression, the subject will enter the Post-treatment Follow-up Period and continue to undergo imaging assessments every 9 weeks (±7 days) (or every 12 weeks [±7 days] if 
subjects has been on study over 54 weeks) until radiologic disease progression (i.e., PFS) or the subject starts subsequent anticancer treatment, whichever occurs earlier. If study 
treatments (zolbetuximab/placebo and both components of CAPOX) are discontinued due to PD, the subject will enter the Long-term and Survival Follow-up Period.   
22. Long-term and Survival Follow-up Period: Following disease progression on first-line treatment or start of subsequent anticancer treatment, subjects will be followed in the 
Long-term and Survival Follow-up Period per institutional guidelines, but not less than every 12 weeks.  Radiologic imaging will be done per standard of care and read locally 
until PFS2 is documented.  Survival Follow-up Period will continue until death (from any cause).  All post-progression details including subsequent anticancer treatment and date 
and site of progression will be recorded on the eCRF. Subject contact by phone or other remote methods is sufficient during Long-term and Survival Follow-up.

8. Imaging Assessments: Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 6), radiologic imaging will be evaluated locally. Under Protocol Version 
6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), radiographic imaging was evaluated centrally by IRC [Table 1].  Radiologic imaging will be evaluated every 9 weeks 
(± 7 days) counting from C1D1 for the first 54 weeks and then every 12 weeks (± 7 days) thereafter until subject develops radiological disease progression per RECIST 1.1 
confirmed locally or by IRC or starts other systemic anticancer treatment, whichever comes earlier.  Imaging schedule should be maintained regardless of treatment delay.  
Imaging will include CT scans with contrast of the thorax, abdomen, and pelvis.  If CT scan with contrast is medically not feasible, MRI may be used for imaging.  Bone scans (or 
focal X-ray) or brain imaging should be performed if metastatic disease in bone or brain is suspected, respectively.  The same mode of imaging should be utilized throughout the 
study unless medical necessity requires a change. See [Section 5.3 Efficacy Assessments]. Refer to Imaging Acquisition Guidelines for further detail on scan modality and contrast 
options. 
9. Laboratory Assessments: See [Section 5.4.3 Laboratory Assessments] for list of laboratory assessments. Laboratory tests must be sent to the local laboratory for analysis.  For 
screening/eligibility laboratory assessments, see footnote number 1. 
• Laboratory test results (local) will be reviewed by the investigator prior to any study treatment. Clinical significance of out-of-range laboratory findings is to be determined 
and documented by the investigator/sub-investigator who is a qualified physician. 
• Local labs may be collected up to 48 hours prior to study treatment. 
• Holidays and weekends should be taken into account when scheduling these sample collections. 
• Additional assessments may be done centrally or locally to monitor AEs or as clinically indicated.

†In case subjects are unable to be evaluated in person on Day 1 of each cycle, the site will contact the subject by phone for a safety assessment at the time the next visit would be due. 
††Additional non-protocol-specific testing may be required per local regulations. Local and/or regional protocols or precautions for COVID-19 management should be followed as 
applicable. 
*+7 calendar day visit window does not apply to C1D1. 
1. Antiemetic Pretreatment: Antiemetic premedication (prophylactic antiemetics) should be administered prior to each study treatment. IV antiemetic premedication should be 
initiated prior to treatment, or oral antiemetic premedication should be initiated at a minimum of 30 minutes prior to treatment. Antiemetic premedication should be given 
according to institutional standard of care, published guidelines and the respective product package insert(s). For further details, see [Section 5.1.1.2 Antiemetics]. 
2. Zolbetuximab/placebo will be administered as a minimum 2-hour intravenous infusion every 3 weeks starting on C1D1. Please refer to Pharmacy Manual and Infusion Guidelines 
for more detailed information. Zolbetuximab/placebo should be administered prior to CAPOX.  For further details, see [Section 5.1.1.1 Zolbetuximab/Placebo]. 
3. Post-infusion Observation Period: Following the first dose of zolbetuximab/placebo on C1D1, the subject must be observed for 2 hours post-zolbetuximab/placebo infusion.  The 
post-infusion observation period can be conducted during the CAPOX administration.  If any ≥ grade 2 AEs are observed during infusion or during the post-infusion observation 
period, subsequent zolbetuximab/placebo infusion times should be extended and subjects should continue to be observed for 2 hours post zolbetuximab/placebo infusion.  If the 
subject does not develop any grade ≥ 2 AEs, the subject should be observed for 1 hour post-infusion for their subsequent zolbetuximab/placebo infusions.  The subject should be 
instructed to notify site personnel if they develop any AEs during this observation time period. In the event of an IRR with features of anaphylaxis (regardless of grade) or grade 3 
or 4 IRR, blood samples for cytokine/chemokine panel and serum total tryptase level (levels typically peak within 3 hours after the onset of symptoms) should be collected once 
the subject has stabilized. See Observation Period following zolbetuximab/placebo infusion [Section 5.4.2] for further details.  
4. CAPOX is a combination of oxaliplatin intravenous infusion and capecitabine tablets and will be administered starting at C1D1 for up to 8 treatments. See [Section 5.1.1.3]. 
5. Physical Exam: should include height (at Screening only), weight and ECOG performance status.  A full physical exam is required at Screening.  The physical exam only needs to 
be repeated on C1D1 if clinically significant changes from screening are observed (in the opinion of the investigator). For all cycles, the physical examination, weight and ECOG 
performance status assessments can be completed up to 48 hours prior to zolbetuximab/placebo administration. Targeted (symptom driven) physical exams should be conducted 
every 3 weeks on day 1 of each cycle.  For further details, see [Section 5.4.4 Physical Examination] 
6. Vital signs (pulse, blood pressure, temperature) should be taken during every visit at the following time points (see [Section 5.4.1 Vital Signs]): 
o Predose at every visit  
o C1D1: Every 30 (±10) minutes during zolbetuximab/placebo infusion  
o If the subject did not develop any ≥ grade 2 AEs during the C1D1 zolbetuximab/placebo infusion or Post-infusion Observation Period, the site may do the following for 
subsequent zolbetuximab/placebo infusions: 
▪ 
The post-infusion observation period can be 1 hour for subsequent visits after C1D1 
▪ 
The vital signs can be assessed every 60 minutes for subsequent visits after C1D1 
o Every 60 (±10) minutes post zolbetuximab/placebo infusion during the Post-infusion Observation Period (for 1 or 2 hours. See footnote 7) 
o Unscheduled if clinically indicated

7. ECGs: ECGs will be locally assessed.  When collected on the same day, ECG should be collected prior to pharmacokinetic samples.  For further details, see [Section 5.4.5 
Electrocardiogram].  A single ECG will be performed at the following time points: 
o Screening 
o Up to 48 hours prior to every oxaliplatin infusion (before any antiemetic treatment administration) 
o Up to 6 hours following completion of every oxaliplatin infusion 
o Zolbetuximab/placebo Discontinuation Visit (if clinically indicated) 
o Zolbetuximab/placebo 30-day Follow-up Visit (if clinically indicated) 
o If clinically indicated or per local requirements 
8. Imaging Assessments: Effective with implementation of Protocol Version 7.0 (Substantial Amendment 5), radiologic imaging will be evaluated locally. Under Protocol Version 
6.1 or earlier (e.g., Original Protocol Version 1 through 6.1), radiologic imaging was evaluated centrally by IRC [Table 1]. Radiologic imaging will be every 9 weeks (± 7 days) 
counting from C1D1 for the first 54 weeks and then every 12 weeks (± 7 days) thereafter until subject develops radiological disease progression per RECIST 1.1 by local or IRC or 
starts other systemic anticancer treatment, whichever comes earlier.  Imaging schedule should be maintained regardless of treatment delay.  Imaging will include CT scans with 
contrast of the thorax, abdomen, and pelvis.  If CT scan with contrast is medically not feasible, MRI may be used for imaging.  Bone scans (or focal X-ray) or brain imaging 
should be performed if metastatic disease in bone or brain is suspected, respectively.  The same mode of imaging should be utilized throughout the study unless medical necessity 
requires a change. See [Section 5.3 Efficacy Assessments]. Refer to Imaging Acquisition Guidelines for further detail on scan modality and contrast options. 
9. Laboratory Assessments: See [Section 5.4.3 Laboratory Assessments] for list of laboratory assessments. Laboratory tests must be sent to the local laboratory for analysis.  For 
screening/eligibility laboratory assessments, see footnote number 1. 
• Laboratory test results (local) will be reviewed by the investigator prior to any study treatment. Clinical significance of out-of-range laboratory findings is to be determined 
and documented by the investigator/sub-investigator who is a qualified physician. 
• Local labs may be collected up to 48 hours prior to study treatment. 
• Holidays and weekends should be taken into account when scheduling these blood draws. 
• Additional assessments may be done locally to monitor AEs or as clinically indicated.  
10. Coagulation (PT, PTT and INR): Coagulation tests should be done at Screening and during study treatment period if clinically indicated.  Local or central lab results may be used 
to confirm eligibility. Ongoing evaluation should be continued for subjects who are receiving therapeutic anticoagulation according to local standard of care. See [Section 5.4.3 
Laboratory Assessments]. 
11. Serum Pregnancy Test: Serum pregnancy tests will be collected for female subjects of childbearing potential only.  Serum pregnancy tests collected at Screening, during study 
treatment period and if clinically indicated or per local requirements. Serum pregnancy test can be completed up to 48 hours prior to zolbetuximab/placebo administration. (Note: 
For Screening, subjects with elevated serum βHCG and a demonstrated non-pregnant status through additional testing are eligible.)
