Randomized Multicenter Study Comparing Docetaxel Plus Cisplatin and 5-FU to Cisplatin Plus 5-FU in Advanced Gastric Cancer

Stomach Neoplasm Clinical Trial

Official title: Open Label, Randomized Multicentre Phase II/III Study of Docetaxel in Combination With Cisplatin (CDDP) or Docetaxel in Combination With 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) and CDDP Compared to the Combination of CDDP and 5-FU in Patients With Metastatic or Locally Recurrent Gastric Cancer Previously Untreated With Chemotherapy for Advanced Disease

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Phase II:

Primary objective: to select one of the 2 test arms (docetaxel with cisplatin, docetaxel with cisplatin and 5-FU), based primarily on complete responses, to advance to a phase III survival comparison against the CDDP + 5-FU control arm.

Secondary objective: to evaluate the quantitative and qualitative safety profile of the 2 test groups.

Phase III:

Primary objective: to detect a statistically significant increase in time to progression (TTP) for the test arm (docetaxel plus cisplatin and 5-FU) relative to the control arm (cisplatin plus 5-FU).

Main secondary objective: to detect a statistically significant increase in overall survival (OS) for the test arm (docetaxel plus cisplatin and 5-FU) relative to the control arm (cisplatin plus 5-FU).

Other secondary objectives: to compare response rates, time to treatment failure, duration of response, safety profiles, quality of life and disease-related symptoms.Socio-economic data will be collected in order to be able to perform an analysis by country when necessary.
