Clinical Trial Summary

This study was a prospective, randomized, controlled phase III clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of docetaxel plus oxaliplatin and capecitabine versus oxaliplatin plus capecitabine in the treatment of gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma with postoperative pathological stage IIIB and IIIC.

Description:

In 2019, CSCO guidelines grade I recommend gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma patients, after D2 R0 resection, whose postoperative pathological stage was III treated with XELOX as an adjuvant chemotherapy. However, some retrospective clinical studies in China suggest that the 3-year DFS rate of XELOX program as an adjuvant postoperative chemotherapy program is still low, and the risk of recurrence is higher for patients with postoperative pathological stage IIIB/IIIC.In recent years, the success of the JACCRO GC-07 trial has provided evidence for the value of Taxoids in postoperative adjuvant therapy of gastric cancer. In the FLOT4 trial, the FLOT improved the DFS rate by 3 years compared with the ECF/ECX. At present, there is no clinical study data to prove whether the combined three-drug regimen can further reduce the risk of postoperative recurrence and improve the treatment effect compared with oxaliplatin combined capecitabine two-drug regimen for patients with high postoperative recurrence risk (patients with postoperative pathological stage IIIB/IIIC). Therefore, the investigators carried out this trial.

• Preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy was not performed and Gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (including signed-ring cell carcinoma, mucinous adenocarcinoma, and hepatoid adenocarcinoma) at stage IIIB and IIIC were confirmed by postoperative pathological staging. Note: the presence of distant metastases should be confirmed by a CT or MRI scan.ECT should be performed if bone metastases are suspected.If peritoneal metastases are suspected, laparoscopy should be performed

• Postoperative ECOG score was 0 or 1

• Bilirubin = 1.5 times of the upper limit of normal value, glutamic oxalacetic transaminase and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase = 2.5 times of the upper limit of normal value

• Serum creatinine = 1.5 times the upper limit of normal value, or GFR>45 ml/min

• Serum albumin = 25 g/L (2.5g /dL)

• INR or PT = 1.5 times ULN

• Hepatitis b surface antigen positive patients need to be tested for hepatitis b DNA virus quantitative detection, only < the upper limit of the normal detection value can be included in the group, and should long-term use of anti-hepatitis b drugs

• Tumor specimens can be provided for consultation (if the patient's surgical specimen comes from another hospital), protein and gene testing

Exclusion Criteria:

• Postoperative wound healing is poor and chemotherapy is not appropriate to start

• Patients who are expected to require major surgery during the study period

• Congenital pulmonary fibrosis, drug-induced pneumonia, organized pneumonia, or CT-confirmed active pneumonia

• Tested positive for HIV

• Active hepatitis b or c

• Only liquid diet was allowed after the operation, with BMI <18kg/m2

• Uncontrolled pain

• A history of antitumor drug therapy other than radical surgery

• Severe infection in the active stage or with poor clinical control

• Use of hormones is contraindicated

• Severe cardiovascular disease, myocardial infection or cerebrovascular accident, arrhythmia, unstable angina pectoris within 3 months before the trial

• Uncontrollable increase in blood pressure or blood sugar

• A history of other malignancies within 5 years, except for carcinoma in situ of the cervix, non-melanoma skin cancer, or stage I uterine cancer

• Distant metastases are known

• Peripheral neuropathy = NCI CTCAE grade 2

• Serum albumin < 2.5 g/dL

• Chronic enteritis

• Any other disease for which there is evidence of a need to limit the use of experimental drugs

• Participate in additional trials up to 30 days before the trial or plan to participate in additional trials while the trial is ongoing

• Receive other experimental drugs up to 28 days before the start of the trial

• Women who are pregnant or nursing, or who plan to become pregnant within five months of the end of treatment. Women of childbearing age should receive a blood/urine pregnancy test 7 days before the start of the trial

• Clinically significant active bleeding

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	disease free survival	From the date of randomization until the date of the first recorded disease recurrence, metastasis or death from any cause, whichever came first.	up to three years.
Secondary	overall survival	From the date of randomization until the date of the first recorded death from any cause. For subjects lost to follow-up prior to death, the last follow-up time is usually calculated as the time of death.	up to three years.
Secondary	Adverse reaction	Adverse reaction will be assessed by NCI CT CAE v5.0.	up to three years.
Secondary	Assessment of life quality	Quality of life will be assessed using The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire-Cancer (QLQ-C30) and the site-specific module for gastric cancer (QLQ-STO22) . These tables will be usde together to assessed the quality of life of the patients. The higher the score, the worse the quality of life.	up to three years.
