About this study

Official title: Randomized Clinical Trial:Clinical Study of Weifuchun Treatment on Gastric Cancer

Research purpose To elucidate the effect mechanism and clinical effective of weifuchun in the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer. From genes related to cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, tumor invasion and metastasis, genes related to immune inflammation and immune escape and other possible aspects to elucidate the effective and mechanism of weifuchun's treatment on gastric cancer.

Weifuchun Treatment and mechanism on Gastric Cancer. Main Responsibility Person: Mingyu Sun research center#Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine Trial Objective#Observe the clinical efficacy and mechanism of Weifuchun in the treatment gastric cancer Therapeutic Schedule#In this study, 72 patients with gastric cancer who received chemotherapy in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery and Oncology, Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were recruited and divided into groups according to random number table method, namely, 36 patients in the Weifichun combined chemotherapy group and 36 patients in the chemotherapy group alone. Weichun group was treated with 24 weeks of Chinese patent medicine Weichun tablet at the same time of chemotherapy. The physical status score, TCM syndrome score, quality of life score, bone marrow suppression and tumor index of the two groups before and 24 weeks after treatment were observed and compared.Fecal samples of the above patients before and after the entry and exit groups were collected, screened and submitted for examination. Finally, 15 cases were submitted for examination in the Weifichun combined chemotherapy group and chemotherapy group alone, and 10 cases were submitted for examination in the healthy volunteers. Miseq platform was used to conduct high-throughput sequencing and analysis of 16S ribosomal RNA of intestinal flora, fecal quality assessment of intestinal flora tested was conducted, α diversity and β diversity were analyzed, and the flora structure, including the level of taxonomy, family, genus, etc., were compared to analyze the differences in each group, and elucidate the possible mechanism of action of Weichun in the treatment of gastric cancer patients.

What participants receive

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

  • WeifuchunDrug

    The treatment group#Weifuchun group#was given Weifuchun tablets, 4 tablets each time, 3 times a day, and 1 hour after meals. The control group(chemotherapy group)#Chemotherapy regimen was based on the Chinese Clinical Oncology Association Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Gastric Cancer (2018), including oxaliplatin +5-FU/CF, SOX regimen, XELOX regimen, and Ticeo monotherapy regimen.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall survival

    To observe the effects of treatment group and control group on OS in patients with advanced gastric cancer, and evaluate whether there is statistical difference in OS between the two groups.From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months.

    Measured: the patients' were included into the clinical trials and up to 24 weeks treatment.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Progression-free survival

    The time between the first treatment and tumor progression or death.From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months. To observe the effects of treatment group and control group on PFS in patients with advanced gastric cancer, and evaluate whether there is a statistical difference in PFS between the two groups.

    Measured: the patients' were included into the clinical trials and up to 24 weeks treatment.

  2. EORTC QLQ-C30

    The quality of life score is based on the EuroPean organization for Research and Treatment (EORTC) Quality of Life Scale (QLQ-C30 v3.0), which records changes in quality of life before and after treatment and compares them. Linear transformation of statistical results was performed to obtain standardized scores (0~100 points), so that scores in various fields could be compared with each other, and the problem of reverse entries could be solved at the same time. The higher the score of symptom field obtained by each subscale, the worse the quality of life condition. The higher the scores in the areas of function and general health, the better the patient's quality of life. Analyze whether there was a statistical difference between the two groups.

    Measured: the patients' were included into the clinical trials and up to 24 weeks treatment.

  3. Clinical symptoms

    According to the scoring criteria of the Guidelines for Clinical Research of New Chinese Medicines (2002), the symptoms of patients after treatment were determined. The improvement of patients' overall symptoms was evaluated by Nimodipine method, and the efficacy index after treatment = (total score before treatment - total score after treatment)/total score before treatment *100%.

    Measured: the patients' were included into the clinical trials and up to 24 weeks treatment.

  4. Tumor markers

    Detect the biomarkers (CA72-4, CEA, CA19-9, CA242, CA50, CA125) of two groups of patients before and after treatment to determine whether there is a statistical difference between the two groups before and after treatment.

    Measured: the patients' were included into the clinical trials and up to 24 weeks treatment.

  5. Immune function

    T cell subsets of the two groups were detected before and after treatment to determine whether there was a statistical difference between the two groups before and after treatment.

    Measured: the patients' were included into the clinical trials and up to 24 weeks treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Weifuchun in people with Gastric Cancer (Diagnosis), run by ShuGuang Hospital.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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 25 Jul 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Overall survival (time frame: the patients' were included into the clinical trials and up to 24 weeks treatment.). 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 25 Jul 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
