Filter by:Despite recent advances, the prognosis of patients with advanced gastric cancer remains poor. At present, regimens that combine a platinum and fluorouracil agent either alone or in combination with a third drug such as epirubicin or taxane constitute the most effective treatment option in the first-line metastatic setting, resulting in a median OS of approximately 10 months. In the second-line setting, ramucirumab (a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 antagonist) was recently approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration, and has demonstrated modest activity in patients with advanced gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma who progressed after first-line platinum- or fluoropyrimidine-containing chemotherapy. Median OS was 5.2 months in the ramucirumab group versus 3.8 months in the placebo group. At the updated DCO of 03 June 2020 in the DS8201-A-J202 (DESTINY-Gastric01) study in HER2-positive GC or GEJ adenocarcinoma subjects assigned to T-DXd 6.4 mg/kg, T-DXd further demonstrated clinically meaningful efficacy. The median OS was 12.5 months for the T-DXd group and 8.9 months for the physician's choice group (HR = 0.60, 95% CI: 0.42, 0.86). In a prespecified subgroup analysis, the percentages of patients with an objective response were analyzed in HER2-low group. The response rate in HER2 2+ was 29% (8 of 28) with T-DXd monotherapy. Refer to the figure below for the response rate in HER2-low group in previous DESTINY trials. This is a two part, phase I/Ⅱ, open-label, single center study of afatinib in combination with T-DXd, in 2L/3L gastric cancer patients with HER2-low. The study design allows an investigation of combination dose of afatinib with T-DXd, with intensive safety monitoring to ensure the safety of the patients.
The goal of the study is to understand whether blood levels of hormones produced or metabolized in the stomach reflect the health of the stomach lining. Specifically the study will determine whether the concentration of ghrelin, gastrin, pepsinogens and vitamin B12 reflect the condition of the stomach lining. Hormone concentrations for people with normal/mild gastritis will be compared to people with long-term inflammation of the stomach (chronic atrophic gastritis), and people with pre-cancerous cellular changes (intestinal metaplasia).
This is an observational study with a case control design. This study included patients with gastric cancer confirmed by pathological diagnosis of gastric tissue, and matched the control population according to age, gender, etc. In this study, researchers collected clinical information and multiple biological samples such as saliva, serum, and feces from the study subjects. We combined 16S rRNA sequencing and metabolomics to explore the differences in microbial and metabolic characteristics between gastric cardia cancer and non-cardia gastric cancer for early screening of gastric cancer.
The study was designed as single-country, multi-center, open-labelled, randomized (1:1), phase II trial. 238 patients with medically and technically operable advanced gastric adenocarcinoma in middle or distal 1/3 of stomach are enrolled and randomly assigned to laparoscopic gastrectomy group and open gastrectomy group. 4 cycles of mFLOT chemotherapy will be conducted before and after gastrectomy. The primary objective of this study is comparison of D2 lymph node dissection compliance rate between open surgery group and laparoscopic surgery group after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
As the survival rate of patients with gastric cancer has increased, there has been a growing interest in interventions that improve postoperative quality of life. Therefore minimally invasive surgery or endoscopic resection has been performed much more frequently. However, adequate lymph node dissection is important as well. The aim of the study is to identify the feasibility of indocyanine green - near infra-red (ICG-NIR) guided sentinel lymph node dissection for the treatment of gastric cancer.
