About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Gastric Neoplasm

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

Histologically confirmed, resectable adenocarcinoma of the GEJ (type I-III) or the stomach (cT2, cT3,cT4, any cN category, M0), or any cT cN+ M0 with the following specifications:

  • ECOG-Score ≤ 2
  • Patient is fit to undergo surgery (either subtotal or total gastrectomy, transhiatal or abdominothoracic esophagectomy)
  • No preceding cytotoxic or targeted therapy
  • No prior partial or complete tumor resection
  • Exclusion of distant metastasis by CT or MRI of thorax and abdomen, and optionally bone scan (if osseous lesions are suspected due to clinical signs)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with distant metastasis
  • Known hypersensitivity against components of the neoadjuvant systemic treatment
  • Documented history of congestive heart failure NYHA ≥III, myocardial infarction within the past 3 months before the start of neoadjuvant treatment
  • Uncontrollable high-risk cardiac arrhythmia, e.g. significant ventricular arrhythmia
  • Past or current history of other malignancies not curatively treated and without evidence of disease for more than 5 years, except for curatively treated early stage cancers such as basal cell carcinoma of the skin and in situ carcinoma of the cervix or the bladder.

Arms of the Study

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Interventional Arm

Arm Description

Patients with locally advanced, resectable gastric or esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma will receive a biopsy of the primary tumor, followed by standard-of care neoadjuvant systemic treatment; after neoadjuvant therapy tumor biopsies will be taken from different sites of the resection specimen. Organoid cultures of pre-treatment tumor biopsies will be established and exposed to the same chemotherapy as the corresponding patient; in vitro response to treatment will be correlated with the in vivo response of patients. Whole genome, methylome and RNA sequencing of tumors biopsies and organoids will be performed prior to as well as after systemic treatment.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Aim 1: Correlation of in-vitro response in the organoid model with histological regression in the resected tumor
Correlation of in-vitro response to cytotoxic chemotherapy in the patient-derived organoid model with histological regression in the resected specimen and analysis of reliability of this organoid model in predicting patients' response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
Aim 2: Correlation of molecular subtypes with histological response after neoadjuvant therapy in patients
Prognostic impact of the molecular subtypes on histological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients will be modeled using the logistic regression.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Aim 1: Correlation of in-vitro response in the organoid model with relapse-free survival
The possible prognostic impact of in-vitro response in the organoid model on relapse-free survival will be investigated using the Cox proportional hazards models.
Aim 2: Correlation of molecular subtypes with relapse-free survival
The possible prognostic impact of molecular subtypes on relapse-free survival will be investigated using the Cox proportional hazards models.
