Clinical Trial Summary

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy has become the standard neoadjuvant regimen for locally advanced G/GEJ cancer and has been recommended by a series of treatment guidelines. Although with clinical benefits of neoadjuvant chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy, the pCR and long-term survival rates are still unsatisfactory and perioperative treatment mode for locally advanced G/GEJ cancer still needs further optimization. In this study, we will explore the efficacy and safety of chemotherapy combined with tislelizumab and LDRT in the neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced G/GEJ cancer.

Description:

This is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, phase Ib/II trial. In the phase Ib, 5 cases will be enrolled in each treatment group. In the phase II study, a total of 44 patients will be enrolled. Eligible patients will be registered and receive three cycles of SOX plus tislelizumab regimen. Simultaneously, LDRT will be planned and administered. Radical D2 gastric cancer resection will be performed 4-6 weeks after the last administration of chemotherapy plus tislelizumab. The primary endpoint of Phase Ib is to determine the optimal radiation dose for phase II study. The primary endpoint of phase II is the pathological complete response (pCR) rate. Secondary endpoints include R0 resection rate, major pathological response (MPR), objective response rate (ORR), 2-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate, 2-year overall survival (OS) rate and safety profile of the neoadjuvant regimen.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

9. Strict contraception.

10. Patients must be able to understand and be willing to sign the written informed consent form. A signed informed consent form must be appropriately obtained prior to the conduct of any trial-specific procedure.

Exclusion Criteria:

Intervention

Drug:
• SOX+Tislelizumab+LDRT
All patients will start with one cycle of neoadjuvant therapy of SOX plus tislelizumab regimen: S-1: 40-60 mg Bid, d1-14, q3w; oxaliplatin: 130 mg/m2, iv drip, d1, q3w; tislelizumab: 200 mg, iv drip, d1, q3w. LDRT will be performed in the target area. After radiotherapy, patients will receive another two cycles of SOX plus tislelizumab. Radical D2 gastric cancer resection will be performed 4-6 weeks after the last administration of SOX plus tislelizumab. The adjuvant therapy will start in 4-6 weeks after the surgery, and we recommend adjuvant treatment with SOX regimen for up to 5 cycles.
