What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. recurrence-free survival

    To demonstrate that capecitabine is superior to observation only (control arm) in terms of recurrence-free survival in curatively resected stage IB gastric cancer.

    Measured: 8 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. overall survival

    To compare overall survival in the capecitabine arm compared with the control arm.

    Measured: 8 years

  2. Safety profiles

    Toxicity profiles will be assessed with the patient 28 +/- 3 days after the last intake of study medication is required. (treatment arm only)

    Measured: 8years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing capecitabine in people with 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 8 inclusion and 15 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2024. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Min-Hee Ryu, MD, PhD (+82230105935, miniryu@amc.seoul.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

recurrence-free survival (time frame: 8 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 NCT01917552, which also lists 14 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 28 Feb 2024.
