About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomized Phase II Clinical Trial: the Efficacy of Surgical Treatment in Combinations With Intraperitoneal Immunotherapy and Systemic Chemotherapy in Patients With Gastric Cancer and Verified Free Cancer Cells

The purpose of this study is to determine whether intraperitoneal immunotherapy (with interleykin-2 - human cytokine reaction activator) with systemic chemotherapy will be more effective than systemic chemotherapy alone in patients with gastric cancer and verified free cancer cells in abdominal cavity in improving the long term outcomes and overall survival of further surgical treatment.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapyExperimentalPatients with gastric cancer and verified free cancer cells who receive 1 course of intraperitoneal immunotherapy with interleykin-2 + 3 courses of systemic chemotherapy (Cisplatin + 5-FU). In case of downstaging (M1 -> M0) surgical treatment will be performed.
Receives: Procedure: neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy
neoadjuvant chemotherapyNo interventionPatients with gastric cancer and verified free cancer cells who receive 3 courses of systemic chemotherapy (Cisplatin + 5-FU). In case of downstaging (M1 -> M0) surgical treatment will be performed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall 2-year survival

    Overall 2-year survival for patients who received radical (R0) surgical treatment after downstaging (M1 -> M0; Cyt "+" -> Cyt "-") with initial free cancer cells in the abdominal cavity without macroscopic canceromathosis.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Portability of the systemic therapy methods

    Portability of the systemic therapy methods (intraperitoneal immunotherapy and systemic chemotherapy). Toxicity scale.

    Measured: 6,9,12,24 months

  2. Mortality

    Mortality related to intraperitoneal immunotherapy and systemic chemotherapy It is defined as the death within 24 months from the start of the treatment regardless of the reason.

    Measured: 24 months

  3. Downstaging tumor

    Number of patients that were downstaged (M1 -> M0; Cyt "+" -> Cyt "-") with initial free cancer cells in the abdominal cavity without macroscopic canceromathosis.

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Morbidity

    Number of postoperative morbidity and mortality in the early post-operative period (for patients who received radical (R0) surgical treatment after downstaging)

    Measured: 30 days

  5. Quality of life

    Quality of life ECOG scale.

    Measured: 6, 12, 18, 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy in people with Gastric Cancer, Metastatic, run by Moscow Clinical Scientific Center.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Dec 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Igor Khatkov, Professor, PhD (i.hatkov@mknc.ru), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall 2-year survival (time frame: 2 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 13 Dec 2016.
