Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability profile including the dose limiting toxicity of AbGn-7 in patients with chemo-refractory advanced solid tumor of epithelial origin, and of AbGn-7 in combination with FOLFOX7 in patients with chemo-naive/chemo-refractory recurrent, locally advanced or metastatic gastric cancer.
This trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of using MASTER, a robotics enhanced endosurgical system to perform endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of gastric/colon cancer in human.
This randomized, multicenter, open-label study will evaluate two different doses of pertuzumab in combination with Herceptin (trastuzumab) and chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of participants with metastatic HER2-positive adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to two treatment arms. Participants in the Pertuzumab 840/420 mg Arm will receive a pertuzumab loading dose of 840 mg for Cycle 1 and a dose of 420 mg for Cycles 2-6, and participants in the Pertuzumab 840/840 mg Arm will receive pertuzumab 840 mg for all six cycles. Participants in both treatment arms will receive trastuzumab, cisplatin, and capecitabine.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of AZD4547 compared with paclitaxel in patients with advanced gastric or lower-oesophageal cancer whose tumours are found to have increased number of FGFR2 gene.
- It was confirmed that the laparoscopic surgery decreases the postoperative pain and reduces the recovery periods in the various surgical fields such as cholecystectomy and colectomy etc. Also, there are clinical evidences that the laparoscopic surgery is applicable to malignant tumor according to the development of surgical techniques and medical instruments. - In case of early stage of gastric cancer, as the diverse clinical evidences, the gastrectomy has been commonly applied, however, the opening surgery is still applied for advanced gastric cancer due to lack of clinical evidence. - In Korea, approximately 38% of patients who undergo surgery for gastric cancer are diagnosed by T2-T3 (AJCC 6th edition) (www.i-kgca.or.kr, National gastric cancer registration business in 2009). There are various clinical evidences to apply laparoscopic surgery to the patients, however, most of them are retrospective or cohort study results. - For the clinical application of surgical treatment regarding locally advanced gastric cancer using laparoscopic surgical technique, it requires the confirmation of definite execution for laparoscopic gastrectomy and D2 lymph node dissection and the safety of surgery and oncological usefulness should be verified. - In order for this, it is only possible to confirm through the comparison of short-term surgical results (complications, mortalities, operative time and duration of hospitalization etc) and long-term results (survival rates and recurrence rates etc) between laparoscopic surgery and opening surgery based on the multicenter large-sized randomized prospective study with current standard treatment.
Descriptive registry to investigate frequency of HER-2 positive gastric cancer involving CNS. Exploration of additional prognostic factors for brain involvement from gastric cancer.
This randomized, open-label, multicenter, international phase IIIb study will compare the efficacy and safety of two Herceptin (trastuzumab) dosing regimens in combination with cisplatin/capecitabine chemotherapy in patients with metastatic gastric or gastro-esophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Patients who have not received prior treatment for metastatic disease will be randomized to receive Herceptin intravenously either an 8 mg/kg loading dose followed by 6 mg/kg every 3 weeks or an 8 mg/kg loading dose followed by 10 mg/kg every 3 weeks. Capecitabine will be administered for 6 cycles at a dose of 800 mg/m2 orally twice on Days 1-14 of each 3-week cycle, cisplatin will be administered intravenously for 6 cycles at a dose of 80 mg/m2 on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression occurs.
The aim of this study is to evaluate survival benefit of a neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen in patient with resectable locally advanced gastric cancer in comparison with surgery alone.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of first-line chemotherapy with cisplatin and irinotecan in advanced gastric cancer, and try to find out the optimal dosage of combination chemotherapy.
This is a multicenter, international, prospective, observational study of patients who are receiving systemic chemotherapy for solid tumour cancers (breast, colorectal, ovarian, prostate, lung, bladder, endometrial, renal, pancreatic, esophageal or gastric) and who are receiving darbepoetin alfa (Aranesp®) or other erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) to treat symptomatic anaemia. Quality of Life will be assessed electronically with the aim of estimating improvement in quality of life for those patients receiving darbepoetin alfa (Aranesp®) who also have an increase in haemoglobin (Hb) of ≥1 g/dL
