About this study

Official title: A Pilot Trial of Platinum Based Chemotherapy According to BRCA Expressions as First-line Chemotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Gastric Cancer

The investigators evaluated the incidence of BRCA loss in patients with advanced gastric cancer and observed the treatment outcome and prognosis according to BRCA loss. And the investigators evaluated the possibility of BRCA loss as a predictive and prognostic factor.

Read the detailed description

Stomach cancer is still the leading cause of cancer deaths globally and is reported to be the second leading cause of cancer deaths in Korea (18.7%). Although the number of radical resection has increased due to the development of early diagnosis, many patients experience recurrence after radical resection. It is also diagnosed as a non - resectable disease locally advanced at the time of initial diagnosis, or with a metastasis. In patients with recurrent / metastatic gastric cancer, conventional palliative chemotherapy is the best treatment, and in advanced gastric cancer, combination therapy with fluoropyrimidine (fluorouracil, capecitabine, S1) and platinum (oxaliplatin, cisplatin). The progression-free survival was 3-5 months, and overall survival of 6-10 months in metastatic gastric cancer patients.

The investigators evaluated the incidence of BRCA loss in patients with advanced gastric cancer and observed the treatment outcome and prognosis according to BRCA loss. And the investigators evaluated the possibility of BRCA loss as a predictive and prognostic factor.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective response rate

    the proportion of patients who have a partial or complete response to therapy; it does not include stable disease and is a direct measure of drug tumoricidal activity.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Progression free survival

    the time from diagnosis to death by any cause and progression.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Overall survival

    the time from diagnosis to death by any cause

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BRCA 1 and Chemotherapy in people with BRCA Gene Rearrangement, run by Chung-Ang University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 9 inclusion and 8 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 27 Jan 2021. 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 South Korea. 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.

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?

Objective response rate (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). 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 27 Jan 2021.
