About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Phase III Study of Chemotherapy With or Without PD-1 Inhibitors and Chemoradiotherapy as Adjuvant Regimen for D2/R0 Resected pN3 Gastric (G) or Gastroesophageal Junction (GEJ) Adenocarcinoma

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with PD-1 inhibitors and chemoradiotherapy, in comparison with adjuvant chemotherapy only, in D2/R0 resected pN3 gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. PD-1+CRT cohort: A total of 216 patients will receive 6 weeks of PD-1 inhibitors and chemotherapy, then receive concurrent chemoradiotherapy, followed by 6 weeks of PD-1 inhibitors and chemotherapy, finally receive maintenance treatment of PD-1 inhibitors until (maximum 1year after radiotherapy). CT cohort: A total of 217 patients will receive 6 months of chemotherapy. The disease-free survival(DFS), overall survival(OS) and adverse effects will be analyzed.

Conditions
Gastric Cancer
Being tested
PD-1 inhibitor, Oxaliplatin, Capecitabine, Tegafur-gimeracil-oteracil potassium, 5-FU
Medical subject headings

What is being measured

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

  1. 3-year DFS rate

    Defined as the time from randomization to the date of first documented progression or death from any cause.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. 3-year OS rate

    Defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. 3-year local recurrence free survival rate

    Defined as the time from randomization to the date of first documented recurrence or death from any cause.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. Percentage of participants with treatment-related acute adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0

    Measured: Up to 28 days from last dose

  4. Quality of life as assessed by Quality of Life Scale (range 0-60)

    It evaluates the quality of life from 12 aspects, including appetite, mental status, sleep quality, fatigue, etc. The higher scores mean a better quality of life.

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing PD-1 inhibitor, Oxaliplatin and Capecitabine in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Fudan 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 11 inclusion and 15 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 Aug 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 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?

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 Zhen Zhang, MD, PhD (18801735029, zhen_zhang@fudan.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

3-year DFS rate (time frame: Up to 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04997837, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Aug 2021.
