About this study

Official title: Consistency Evaluation of a Patient-derived Tumor Xenograft Zebrafish Model in Predicting Anti-cancer Efficacy of Conventional Drugs for Gastric Cancer

The goal of this study is to compare the tumor response in gastric cancer patients given neoadjuvant chemotherapy with the corresponding result obtained from zebrafish patient-derived tumor xenograft(PDX) model given the same regimen. The main question it aims to answer is whether this PDX model of zebrafish could accurately predict the effect of chemotherapy in advanced gastric cancer. Participants will be given the standard neoadjuvant treatment administrated by their own doctors and tumor response will be observed and recorded. Meanwhile, tumor samples derived from patients before chemotherapy will be transplanted to zebrafish and the same regimen will be given to the PDX models correspondingly. The tumor response data both from clinical practice and PDX model platform will be analysed and compared to evaluate the power of this zebrafish model platform in drug efficiency prediction.

Read the detailed description

The prognosis of advanced gastric cancer treated with surgery only remains quite disappointed. Adjuvant and neoadjuvant chemotherapy had been greatly raising the survive of advanced gastric cancer. However, how to acquired the tumor sensitivity to the following chemotherapy before the treatment, in order to admit reasonable drugs, avoid unexpected progression of tumor and unnecessary loss of surgical opportunity, remained the focus in this field. Zebrafish CDX/PDX model provides a reliable potential platform for drug sensitivity prediction, but the drug sensitivity result concluded by this platform could not fully represent its actual clinic efficacy in human body. Consistency of therapeutic efficacy could be concluded only by comparing the results both in the human body and the model that was given the same regimens. This is the golden standard to evaluate whether the PDX model of zebrafish could accurately predict the effect of chemotherapy, as well as the primary foundation of the clinical practice with this zebrafish model platform for drug efficiency prediction. Therefore, we intend to carry out this clinical study in gastric cancer patients whom were given neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Enrolled individuals was given a biopsy through endoscopy to obtain samples that would be transplanted to the zebrafish model. Same drugs would be give both for the patient and corresponding zebrafish model, and results would be observed carefully to assess the consistency between the model and the actual practice. This may give strong support for the future clinical use of the platform.

What participants receive

    samples obtained from biopsy will be used in the zebrafish PDX model

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
focused groupAdvanced gastric patients that will be treated with neoadjuvant therapy are enrolled. Every clinical decision such as regimen or dosage will be decided by their own doctors without any interventions. Tumor samples will be obtained before the first cycle of the treatment and will be transplanted to the zebrafish model. Compared results will be analyzed in future.
Receives: Other: biopsy of tumor before treatment

What is being measured

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

  1. The coincidence rate of tumor response obtained from 50 PDX models with clinical real tumor response acquired from corresponding patients received neoadjuvant therapy.

    Drugs used in the zebrafish PDX model are as same as those administrated in the clinical practice with the corresponding patient. Immunofluorescence quantitative detection would be used to evaluate the tumor response in PDX model while RECIST 1.1 and Becker criterion would be applied to evaluate the real tumor response in clinical practice.

    Measured: about 3 months (from the first cycle of neoadjuvant therapy to the surgery)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Precise Prediction of Therapy Efficiency, run by Zhejiang 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 8 inclusion and 14 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 26 Dec 2023. 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.

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 Xiaoli Jin, Dr (86-13605809870, Jinxiaoli@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The coincidence rate of tumor response obtained from 50 PDX models with clinical real tumor response acquired from corresponding patients received neoadjuvant therapy. (time frame: about 3 months (from the first cycle of neoadjuvant therapy to the surgery)). 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 26 Dec 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
