About this study

Phase II single-arm study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of preoperative chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX regimen. The investigators will include 27 patients with resectable locally advanced gastric cancer. They will receive preoperative chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX regimen by long-term catheter every 14 days for 8 cycles accounting for a total of 4 months of systemic treatment. In the period between 4 and 8 weeks of the last cycle, restaging tests will be performed and if there is no metastatic progression of disease, the patient will undergo surgical treatment with curative intention. The objective is to evaluate whether preoperative treatment with FOLFIRINOX regimen involving continuous infusion and bolus infusion of 5-fluoruracil, irinotecan bolus and oxaliplatin bolus is effective and safe in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced gastric cancer.

The planned recruitment period is 48 months (4 years). There will be a total of 4 months of preoperative chemotherapy. In case of limiting toxicity or disease progression, chemotherapy will be suspended and patients may undergo resection of the primary neoplasia at the discretion of the surgical team of the institution. Patients will be followed for 5 years after entry of the last participant in the protocol for OS and PFS evaluation. The end of the study will occur when the last participant completes their last follow-up visit, which should occur no later than 60 months after enrollment in the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pathologic Complete Response (pCR)

    To evaluate the Pathologic Complete Response (pCR).

    Measured: 4-8 weeks after neoadjuvant chemotherapy complete

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Disease-free survival (DFS)

    Evaluate Disease-free survival (DFS).

    Measured: At 2, 3 and 5 years after preoperative treatment with FOLFIRINOX regimen.

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    Evaluate Overall survival (OS).

    Measured: At 2, 3 and 5 years after preoperative treatment with FOLFIRINOX regimen.

  3. R0-resection rate

    Evaluate the R0 resection rate (absence of microscopic residual disease).

    Measured: 4-8 weeks after neoadjuvant chemotherapy complete

  4. Rate of Treatment Completion

    Evaluate the rate of completion of treatment (chemotherapy and surgical approach).

    Measured: 4-8 weeks after neoadjuvant chemotherapy complete

  5. Rate of adverse events

    Rate and description of adverse events

    Measured: Through neoadjuvant chemotherapy (4 months)

  6. Rate of Disease Progression

    Evaluate the rate of disease progression.

    Measured: Through neoadjuvant chemotherapy (4 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing FOLFIRINOX in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Instituto do Cancer do Estado de São Paulo at 1 site in Brazil.

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 6 inclusion and 17 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Nov 2020. 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 Brazil. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Tiago B. Castria, MD PhD (+551138934531, tiagobiachi@yahoo.com.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pathologic Complete Response (pCR) (time frame: 4-8 weeks after neoadjuvant chemotherapy complete). 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 10 Nov 2020.
