Gastric Cancer
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Gastric Cancer

- Pregnancy or lactation
- Receipt of an investigational drug within 28 days prior to study start
- Clinically significant gastrointestinal abnormalities, apart from gastric cancer, including uncontrolled inflammatory gastrointestinal diseases
- Significant history of cardiac disease
- Significant vascular disease
- Serious active infection at the time of randomization, or other serious underlying medical conditions that would impair the ability of the participant to receive protocol treatment
- Infection with human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C
- Radiotherapy within 4 weeks before start of study treatment
- Major surgery within 4 weeks before start of study treatment, without complete recovery

Placebo Comparator
Onartuzumab+mFOLFOX6
Placebo+mFOLFOX6
Participants will receive onartuzumab 10 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) intravenous (IV) infusion + mFOLFOX6 (oxaliplatin, folinic acid, and 5-fluoruracil) regimen. Participants will receive a maximum of 12 cycles (each cycle is 14 days) of mFOLFOX6 with onartuzumab. Participants whose disease has not progressed after 12 cycles of mFOLFOX6 with onartuzumab will continue treatment with onartuzumab until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or death.
Participants will receive onartuzumab matching placebo + mFOLFOX6. Participants will receive a maximum of 12 cycles (each cycle is 14 days) of mFOLFOX6 with placebo. Participants whose disease has not progressed after 12 cycles of mFOLFOX6 with placebo will continue treatment with placebo until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or death.
