About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Study of Adjuvant Chemotherapy With Docetaxel, Capecitabine and Cisplatin in Patients With Advanced Gastric Cancer

Despite the improvement of surgical resection as primary curative treatment for gastric cancer, more than 70% of patients with stage IIIB and IV disease undergoing radical primary tumor resection relapse and die within 5 years. Therefore, there is an urgent need to further improve the treatment for gastric cancer in this population. Recently reported phase III study comparing capecitabine/cisplatin (XP) versus 5-FU/cisplatin (FP), XP showed better activity and tolerability compared with FP. To improve treatment outcomes of XP chemotherapy, the investigators performed a phase I-II study of docetaxel, capecitabine and cisplatin in advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Phase I-II study of docetaxel, capecitabine and cisplatin as first-line chemotherapy in advanced gastric cancer (Kang et al, Proc Am Soc Clin Oncol 22,328.2003). The docetaxel/capecitabine/cisplatin (DXP) chemotherapy was highly active for the 1st-line chemotherapy of AGC. These findings and experience encourages the investigators to design the adjuvant trial of DXP chemotherapy in patients with resected gastric cancer. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of adjuvant DXP in this patient population.

Read the detailed description

Previous in phase II study of docetaxel, capecitabine and cisplatin,total 40 pts with measurable disease, median 6 cycles of chemotherapy, there were 4 confirmed complete responses (CRs) and 23 confirmed partial responses (PRs), with the overall response rate of 67.5% (95% confidence interval, 52.7 ~ 82.3) in intention-to-treat analysis. Ten patients underwent surgical resection after 4 ~ 9 cycles of chemotherapy. Four pathologic CRs were identified. With a median follow-up of 14 months (range, 1 to 28), median time to progression was 7.7 months, and median overall survival was 16.9 months. The DXP chemotherapy was highly active for the 1st-line chemotherapy of AGC (Kang et al, Proc Am Soc Clin Oncol 22,328.2003).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing docetaxel, capecitabine, cisplatin in people with Resected Advanced Gastric Cancer, run by Asan Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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 7 Jan 2020. 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 South Korea. 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?

This protocol will evaluate the possible benefit of adjuvant docetaxel, capecitabine, and cisplatin combination chemotherapy in patients with resected gastric cancer pathologic stage IIIB and IV in terms of relapse free survival. (time frame: 5 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 7 Jan 2020.
