Filter by:Because locally far-advanced gastric cancer combined with adjacent tissue invasion has a poor prognosis, some phase 2 and 3 clinical trials of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) are performed in Japan. However, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) achieves superior local tumor control compared with NAC. This feasibility trial explored the feasibility and safety of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) in this type of gastric cancer.
The aims of this study are to investigate whether multimodal treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastric cancer is feasible and to evaluate the clinical outcomes and clinical effectiveness of neoadjuvant systemic chemotherapy followed by cytoreductive surgery + hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy + early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy, as compared to systemic chemotherapy only, in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastric cancer.
This study is to investigate the effect of gastrectomy on remission of type 2 diabetes in patients with gastric cancer and type 2 diabetes, to investigate the mechanism of blood glucose alteration and intestinal hormonal signaling by the reconstruction methods, and to evaluate the applicability and efficacy of Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy after gastrectomy in gastric cancer patients with diabetes.
We grafted the concept of metabolic surgery (long limb Roux-en Y reconstruction) into gastric cancer surgery. This study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of long limb Roux-en Y reconstruction after gastrectomy in non-obese type II diabetes with gastric cancer.
The study aims to: 1. Achieve molecular imaging of MG7 antigen in patients with gastric cancer in vivo using confocal laser endomicroscopy. 2. Compare the results of in vivo MG7-specific molecular imaging with CLE and ex vivo immunohistochemistry .
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Cabazitaxel, as well as safety and side effects for patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancer
Although the overall incidence of gastric cancer has steadily declined in many Western countries during the last few decades, it is still one of the most common tumors in China. It is now well recognised that combination chemotherapy regimens improve patient outcomes, but there is no accepted global standard regimen for advanced gastric cancer. The ToGA study was the first randomized, prospective, multicenter, phase III trial to show the efficacy and safety of Trastuzumab in HER2- positive GC. Trastuzumab reduced the risk of death by 26% (HR 0.74; 95% CI 0∙60, 0∙91; p=0∙0046) when combined with a reference chemotherapy (Capecitabine plus Cisplatin) and prolonged the median survival by nearly 3 months (from 11.1 to 13.8 months) in patients with HER2-positive(FISH+ or IHC3+) advanced GC. Oxaliplatin has been shown to be as effective as cisplatin, and exhibits a favorable toxicity profile with a substantially lower rate of nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, and myelosuppression. In the current study, the efficacy and safety of Trastuzumab in combination with Oxaliplatin/capecitabine chemotherapy will be evaluated in Chinese patients with HER2 positive advanced or recurrent gastric cancer.
This is a randomized multicenter controlled study of oxaliplatin, leucovorin calcium , plus 5-fluorouracil (FOLFOX) compared with S-1 plus oxaliplatin (SOX) as perioperative chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer. Hypothesis: SOX is not inferior to FOLFOX as perioperative chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil, cisplatin, and leucovorin calcium, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) together with cetuximab before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. Giving these drugs after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving fluorouracil, cisplatin, and leucovorin calcium together with cetuximab and to see how well they work in treating patients with adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction.
Background: It is estimated that in the Netherlands each year approximately 900 patients with gastric cancer or adenocarcinoma of the gastro-oesophageal junction are candidates for chemotherapy. Randomized studies comparing chemotherapy versus best supportive care have shown that survival and quality of life are prolonged with chemotherapy. However, no chemotherapy regimen is clearly superior with regard to prolongation of survival. Therefore, tolerability of treatment and ease of administration (outpatient compared to inpatient) are important considerations for the development of novel treatment schedules. Study design: This is an open-label, multicentre, phase II trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with docetaxel, oxaliplatin and capecitabine chemotherapy (B-DOC) as first-line therapy in patients with inoperable locally advanced or recurrent and/or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastro-oesophageal junction. In case of HER2 positive inoperable locally advanced or recurrent and/or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastro-oesophageal junction trastuzumab is added to this regimen (B-DOCT). Study Endpoints: Primary endpoint Progression free survival defined as the time measured from B-DOCT study, Protocol version 3.0 dated January 18, 2011 Page 5 / 60 the day of registration to first progression or death. Secondary endpoints Toxicity Overall survival, defined as the time from registration to death Response rate defined as the percentage of partial and complete responses Duration of response defined as time from response to first progression Translational research on pharmacogenomic and biological factors that may predict treatment response.
