About this study

Official title: Oral Nutritional Supplements Compared With Standard Diet in Postoperative Gastric Cancer Patients With Adjuvant Chemotherapy: a Multicenter, Open-label, Phase 3 Randomised Controlled Trial

Background: It is known that postoperative malnutrition remains inevitable for gastric cancer patients with adjuvant chemotherapy, which could have prejudicial influence on the compliance of subsequent adjuvant chemotherapy and survival of the patients. A multi-institutional prospective phase 2 study had demonstrated the efficacy of oral nutritional supplements (ONS) for gastric cancer patients undergoing gastrectomy. However, previous studies did not focus the gastric cancer patients with adjuvant chemotherapy. Thus, it is unknown whether the ONS could benefit the gastric cancer patients with adjuvant chemotherapy. A multicenter, phase 3 randomised controlled trial was conducted to compare the ONS with standard diet for postoperative gastric cancer patients with adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients and method: In this study, pathological confirmed stage II-III or T1N1M0 gastric cancer patients who are supposed to receive adjuvant chemotherapy, aged from 18 to 75 years, with body mass index (BMI) from 18.5 to 28.0 kg/m2, and with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤2, are randomized 1:1 to receive oral administration of NutrenOpimum (Nestle Suisse S.A.), a liquid enteral nutritional food for special medical purpose (FSMP), or standard diet. NutrenOpimum administration was recommended with a dosage of 400 kcal/400 ml per day within 7 days postoperatively and was continued for 3 months postoperatively. The primary end point was postoperative malnutrition, as defined as ratio of the weight loss at 3 months postoperatively to the days 7 postoperatively body weight (body weight loss ratio) higher than 10%; body weight loss ratio at 1, 3, 6 months. Secondary end points were chemotherapy withdrawal, time to adjuvant chemotherapy failure, period of adjuvant chemotherapy, quality of life, grade 3/4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia, and severe side effects on digestive tract. Final study analysis will be conducted after the last patient's enrollment.

What is being measured

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

  1. postoperative malnutrition

    the weight loss at 3 months postoperatively to the days 7 postoperatively body weight (body weight loss ratio) higher than 10%

    Measured: 3 months postoperatively

  2. body weight loss ratio at 1, 3, 6 months

    the ratio of the weight loss at 1,3,6 months postoperatively to the days 7 postoperatively body weight

    Measured: 1,3,6 months postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. chemotherapy withdrawal

    chemotherapy withdrawal by the adverse events or recurrence

    Measured: 6 months

  2. time to adjuvant chemotherapy failure

    Time to adjuvant treatment chemotherapy failure (TTF) were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by the log-rank test

    Measured: 6 months

  3. period of adjuvant chemotherapy

    period of adjuvant chemotherapy

    Measured: 6 months

  4. quality of life

    quality of life at 1,3 and 6 months as evaluated by EORTC QLQ-C30

    Measured: 6 months

  5. grade 3/4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia

    grade 3/4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia during adjuvant chemotherapy

    Measured: 6 months

  6. severe side effects on digestive tract

    severe side effects on digestive tract during adjuvant chemotherapy

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing NutrenOpimum in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Sun Yat-sen 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 13 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 17 Apr 2019. 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.

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 Zhiwei Zhou, Ph.D. (86(020)87343626, zhouzhw@sysucc.org.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

postoperative malnutrition (time frame: 3 months postoperatively). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 17 Apr 2019.
