About this study

Official title: Chemosensitivity Test to Evaluate the Effect of Adjuvant Cancer Chemotherapy (S-1) After Gastric Surgery

To evaluate the usefulness of chemosensitivity test in evaluating the appropriate adjuvant cancer chemotherapy after gastric surgery

Read the detailed description

Patients: clinical Stage III gastric cancer patients. Informed consent will be obtained before surgery. Eligible patients: surgical Stage II, IIIA and IIIB gastric cancer patients. Chemosensitivity test: The surgical specimen will be sent Mitsubishi BCL, Co. Ltd. to be tested by CD-DST chemosensitivity test and RT-PCR for thymidylate synthetase and dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase mRNA. The test results will be blinded for the doctors on duty.

Treatment: All the patients will be treated with S-1 at a dose of 80 mg/m2 b.i.d. for 4 weeks followed by 2 weeks rest. The treatment will be continued until the recurrence or 1 year after operation.

Primary endpoint: 3-years disease-free survival rate Secondary endpoint: 3-years overall survival rate and side effect (CTCAE v3.0) Evaluation of chemosensitivity test: The cutoff condition will be determined based on the accumulated data of CD-DST and mRNAs.

Hypothesis: The responder detected by CD-DST and/or TS, DPD mRNA will have a favorable survival outcome comparing with resistant cases.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing S-1 in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Japan Clinical Cancer Research Organization at 36 sites in Japan.

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 11 inclusion and 8 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 29 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 36 sites in Japan. 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 rate (time frame: at three years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00287755, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 29 Jun 2011.
