What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CellSearch® CTC kitDevice

    Collect peripheral blood sample of 100 gastric cancer patients pre-chemotherapy treated with capecitabine/paclitaxel (XPa) and capecitabine/cisplatin (XP) and post two cycles of chemotherapy(response evaluation).

    Blood samples will be transferred to central lab to detect CTCs by Cellsearch kit.

    Tumor response evaluation will be performed after two cycles of chemotherapy by CT/MRI based on RECIST. Clinical data, including tumor stage, metastastic organ, chemotherapy regimen, objective response, progression free survival, overall survival, etc, will be collected according to study protocol.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CellSearch® CTC kit in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Peking University at 1 site in China.

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 16 inclusion and 13 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 9 May 2017. 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 China. 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.

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?

circulating tumor cells in blood (time frame: every 6 weeks). 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 NCT01625702, 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 9 May 2017.
