About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of the Combination of Apatinib and POF (Paclitaxel Plus Oxaliplatin Plus 5-fluorouracil Plus Leucovorin)

In previous studies, we found that POF (A combination of oxaliplatin, fluorouracil and Paclitaxel) regimen appears to be of good efficacy and is well tolerated in patients with advanced gastric cancer. Apatinib is an orally antiangiogenic agent. It was approved and launched in China in 2014 as a 3rd-line treatment for patients with advanced gastric cancer. Therefore, investigators conducted the dose escalation phase I study to explore the safety of combination of apatinib and POF as first-line treatment for advanced gastric cancer. Now we are going to start a phase 2 trial with apatinib 500mg + POF as first-line therapy to investigate the efficacy and safety in the patients with advanced gastric cancer.

Being tested
Apatinib, POF

What participants receive

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

  • ApatinibDrug

    Apatinib (500 mg qd p.o.) until disease progression or intolerable toxicity or refused by the patients.

  • POFDrug

    The POF regimen consisted of a 3-hour infusion of paclitaxel (135 mg/m2) followed by oxaliplatin (85 mg/m2) and Calcium Levofolinate (200 mg/m2).Subsequently, a 46-hour infusion of fluorouracil (2400 mg/m2) was administered using an ambulatory pump, repeating the cycle every 14 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Apatinib and POF in people with Gastric Adenocarcinoma, run by Fujian Cancer Hospital 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 7 inclusion and 4 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 16 Oct 2018. 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 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 Rongbo Lin (13705919382 ext. 13705919382, rongbo_lin@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective response rate (time frame: From enrollment to 3 months after treatment). 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 16 Oct 2018.
