About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of PD-1 Combined With Long-term Concurrent Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy and Chemotherapy in the Treatment of Resectable Locally Advanced Esophagogastric Junction Adenocarcinoma: A Phase II Study

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect and safety of concurrent PD-1 antibody-based long-term radiotherapy followed by 2 cycles SOX with PD-1 in patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction.

Read the detailed description

The incidence of adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) is increasing in Asian countries and Western Contries. Surgical resection is the most important treatment for AEG. However, the recurrence rate is high when surgery is performed alone. The results of CLASSIC, MAGIC, FLOT4, JCOG0501, PRODIGY, RESOLVE, CROSS trial showed that perioperative chemotherapy and pre- or postoperative chemoradiotherapy significantly increase the overall survival rate and disease free survival rate compared to surgery alone. Radiotherapy and immunotherapy can increase sensitivity to each other, and several clinical studies have also showed that PD-1 antibody may significantly prolongs the life.Thus the investigators plan to conduct this clinical trial to evaluate the effect and safety of concurrent PD-1 antibody-based long-term radiotherapy followed by 2 cycles SOX with PD-1 in patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction.

Subjects will receive long-term radiotherapy (5w) concurrent with PD-1 antibody for 2 cycles, then receive two cycles of SOX regimen combined PD-1 after a week's rest. Surgery will be performed 2 weeks after the last cycle of neoadjuvant treatment. Adjuvant treatment will be started 3 to 8 weeks after surgery, and SOX regimen will be given for 4 cycles.

What participants receive

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

  • neoadjuvant Radiation plus SOX and PD-1 antibodyDrug

    Also called Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy plus Immunotherapy

    Patients will be given the perioperative treatment as below once recruited:

    First, neoradiation (5w) will be given: intensity modulated radiotherapy was given for tumors and high-risk lymphatic drainage areas. PD-1 antibody will be started concurrent the radiation for 2 cycles.

    The neochemotherapy (SOX) and PD-1 antibody will be given for 2 cycles after 1 week since radiation completed ; Patients will rest 2 weeks after the last cycle of neochemotherapy, and evaluation will be performed during this time. And D2 surgery will be performed if resectable.

    SOX and PD-1 antibody will be given q3w. Adjuvant chemotherapy: We advise starting 4 cycles of SOX regimen in 3-8w after surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pathological Complete Responce (pCR) Rate

    Proportion of patients with AEG who received neoadjuvant theray with radiation plus PD-1 antibody and SOX regimen and postoperative pathological examination shows pathological complete responce

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. R0 Resection Rate

    Proportion of patients with AEG who received surgery with pathological pathological examination proved microscopically margin-negative resection

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  2. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Disease Free Survival was defined as the time from the date of surgery to the date of the local recurrence, and/or distant disease, or tumor-related death.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. Adverse Events

    For any adverse reactions, the researchers refer to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) standard of common toxicity (CTC)

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  4. Surgery Morbidity

    Surgical morbidity reported according to Clavien-Dindo classification

    Measured: 30 days and 12-months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing neoadjuvant Radiation plus SOX and PD-1 antibody in people with Adenocarcinoma of Esophagogastric Junction, run by Peking University People's 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 12 inclusion and 13 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Aug 2022. 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?

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 Liyu Zhu, MD (+8610-66583821, wcwkzlward@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pathological Complete Responce (pCR) Rate (time frame: Up to 6 months). 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 Aug 2022.
