Filter by:Patients with advanced gastric cancer are treated with a combination of RAD001 (everolimus) and Mitomycin C.
The purpose of this study is: - To observe the feasibility of biweekly oxaliplatin and infusional 5-fluorouracil (FU)/Leucovorin (LV) in patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma who have prior exposure to taxane, fluoropyrimidine, and cisplatin - To determine the activity of this combination regimen. - To evaluate the treatment-related toxicities.
The urgent need for a new effective therapy with better safety profile for the metastatic gastric cancer patients and promising results observed so far in the studies with S-1 plus cisplatin combination in advanced gastric cancer (AGC) strongly warrants the comparison of a 3-weekly schedule to a 5-weekly schedule of S-1 plus cisplatin as a standard regimen in the first-line treatment for AGC patients. The objectives of this study are to compare a 3-weekly schedule to a 5-weekly schedule of S-1 plus Cisplatin combination in terms of efficacy, quality of life and safety in patients with previously untreated advanced or recurrent unresectable gastric cancer. Primary endpoint is progression-free survival. This is an open label, randomized, multi-center, non-inferiority/superiority (of 3-weekly regimen over 3-weekly regimen) hybrid study.
This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of RAD001 monotherapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer which has progressed after one or two lines of prior chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether endostar (recombinant human endostatin)with cisplatin and capecitabine (Xeloda) as 1st line treatment in the advanced gastric cancer is effective and safe.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safe and tolerable dose of axitinib given together with cisplatin and capecitabine in patients with advanced gastric cancer who have not received prior chemotherapy for their advanced cancer.
Because well-designed, randomized, controlled clinical trials are lacking in patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC), and because randomly allocating patients to treatments that do not accord with their preferences may influence trial validity, the investigators employed a patient preference randomized trial design to compare the efficacy of second-line chemotherapy and best supportive care.
Recently, 3-drug (ECX) and 2-drug (CX) combination chemotherapy involving capecitabine showed promising results in randomized clinical trials for advanced gastric cancer (AGC). The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and activity of ECX and CX combination chemotherapy given as first-line therapy for AGC.
There is strong scientific rationale for exploring the role of sorafenib with capecitabine and cisplatin (XP) in AGC. XP is a new standard of care in AGC and sorafenib is a novel signal transduction inhibitor that prevents tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis through blockade of the Raf/MEK/ERK pathway at the level of Raf kinase and the receptor tyrosine kinases VEGF-R2 and PDGFR-beta.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of everolimus 10mg daily in patients with advanced gastric carcinoma (inoperable, recurrent or metastatic gastric cancer) whose cancer has progressed despite prior treatment.
