Who may be able to join

  • Ambulatory patients
  • Karnofsky performance status of ≥70 %.
  • Histologically confirmed gastric adenocarcinoma, staged pathologically, stage II (T2N1, T1N2, T3N0), IIIa (T3N1, T2N2, T4N0), and IIIb (T3N2). At least 15 examined lymph nodes are required to ensure the adequate TNM (Tumor Nodes Metastases classification.

  • Total bilirubin > 1.5 x ULN
  • ALAT, ASAT > 2.5 x ULN
  • Alkaline phosphatase > 2.5 x ULN.
  • Prior unanticipated severe reaction to fluoropyrimidine therapy (with or without documented dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency) or patients with known DPD deficiency.
  • Hypersensitivity to platinum compounds or any of the components of the study medications.
  • Received any investigational drug or agent/procedure, i.e. participation in another trial, within 4 weeks before randomization.

About this study

Official title: A Phase III Study Comparing Adjuvant Chemotherapy Consisting of Capecitabine/Oxaliplatin vs Surgery Alone in Patients With Stage II (T1N2, T2N1, T3N0), IIIa (T2N2, T3N1, T4NO), and IIIb (T3N2) Gastric Adenocarcinoma

Primary:

  • To demonstrate that capecitabine/oxaliplatin as adjuvant chemotherapy is superior to observation alone in terms of 3 year disease-free survival (DFS) rate in chemotherapy-naïve patients who underwent potentially curative resection for gastric cancer.

Secondary:

  • To compare the overall survival of surgery and capecitabine/ oxaliplatin as adjuvant therapy versus surgery alone. To evaluate the safety profile of capecitabine/oxaliplatin adjuvant therapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Capecitabine and Oxaliplatin in people with Stomach Neoplasms, run by Sanofi at 3 sites in 3 countries.

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 4 inclusion and 25 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 20 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in China, South Korea, 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Recurrence of the original cancer (time frame: From the beginning to end of the study). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00411229, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 20 Feb 2013.
