What participants receive

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

  • 5-FluorouracilDrug

    Participants will receive 5-FU, 800 milligrams per meter-squared (mg/m^2) per day via IV infusion during Days 1 to 5 of each 3-week cycle, for a total of 6 cycles in combination with cisplatin or upto disease progression.

  • CapecitabineDrug

    Participants will receive oral capecitabine, 1000 mg/m^2 twice daily on Days 1 to 14 of each 3-week cycle, for a total of 6 cycles in combination with cisplatin or upto disease progression.

  • CisplatinDrug

    Participants will receive cisplastin, 80 mg/m^2 via IV infusion on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle, for a total of 6 cycles or upto disease progression in combination with either capecitabine or 5-FU.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 5-Fluorouracil, Capecitabine and Cisplatin in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 45 sites in 14 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 2 inclusion and 5 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 2 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 45 sites in China, Brazil, Mexico, Russia, South Korea and 9 more countries. 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?

Time to disease progression (time frame: Up to approximately 7.3 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 NCT02563054, 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 2 Nov 2016.
