Trial summary

In this study, the investigators will use P-HDFL, a regimen with high tumor remission rate (~ 60-70%) and with only modest treatment-associated toxicities, as induction chemotherapy for patients with non-resectable gastric cancer. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase II Trial of Consolidation or Salvage Chemotherapy by Using Weekly Docetaxel/Irinotecan After Cisplatin Plus Weekly 24-Hour Infusion of High-dose 5-Fluorouracil/Leucovorin for Non-resectable Gastric Cancers

In this study, the investigators will use P-HDFL, a regimen with high tumor remission rate (~ 60-70%) and with only modest treatment-associated toxicities, as induction chemotherapy for patients with non-resectable gastric cancer. For those patients who have achieved complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), DI will be used to "consolidate" the remission. For those patients who fail to achieve remission by P-HDFL, DI will be used as salvage chemotherapy. The efficacy and toxicities of DI in these two settings will be evaluated in this prospective study.

Read the detailed description
  1. To evaluate if weekly Docetaxel-Irinotecan,a potentially non-cross-resistant regimen,can prolong the overall survival (OS) or the duration of remission in those patients who have achieved CR or PR by P-HDFL regimen
  2. To evaluate the efficacy of weekly Docetaxel-Irinotecan combination as salvage regimen for those patients who have either failed to achieve remission or have recurred from P-HDFL chemotherapy
  3. To find out the optimal doses for docetaxel and irinotecan in a weekly dosing schedule for gastric cancer patients
  4. To evaluate the toxicities of weekly Docetaxel-Irinotecan regimen in inoperable gastric cancers

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Docetaxel-Irinotecan in people with Gastric Cancer, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jul 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival (OS) (time frame: Five years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jul 2013.
