Active clinical trials for "Stomach Neoplasms"

This open, single-center, randomized phase II study was to evaluate the clinical benefit of apatinib plus camrelizumab which is an anti-Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody, versus apatinib in patients with metastatic gastric cancer refractory to two or more lines of treatment, fully evaluating the efficacy and safety of the combined regimen.

The study is to evaluate the efficacy of Apatinib in patients with advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma of stomach or gastroesophageal junction.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CAR-T cell immunotherapy in patients with MUC1 positive relapsed or refractory solid tumor.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Apatinib combined with S-1 as first-line therapy for patients with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.

The purpose of this study is to explore the short-term, long-term and oncological outcomes of laparoscopic spleen-preserving No. 10 lymph node dissection in a left-sided approach for advanced middle or upper third gastric cancer not invading greater curvature.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of extensive lymphadenectomy procedure in treatment of gastric cancer. This study is designed as a open-label, multi-centers, randomized controlled trial. The overall survival and free disease survival are primary outcomes, with postoperative complication, hospital charges, and life quality as secondary outcomes.

This is a non-randomized pauci-centre, open-label phase II study. The treatment will consist in a chemotherapy by FOLFOX and nab-paclitaxel following modalities determined in the Brown University Phase I study. In neoadjuvant setting : 3 months of treatment Main criteria of Withdraw of the treatment: in case of tumor progression, non acceptable toxicity, or patient decision. Post-operative treatment (for 6 additional cycles) is recommended, but will depend on the result of the neo-adjuvant treatment and the ability of patients to receive adjuvant chemotherapy based on tolerance of neo-adjuvant treatment and general post-operative condition (i.e. adjuvant treatment if no progression during neo-adjuvant chemotherapy, less than 80% of residual viable tumor compared to initial tumor volume, acceptable tolerance and post-operative PS 0 - 2). Adjuvant treatment must be initiated within 8 weeks post-operatively.

This single-arm, multicenter Phase 2 trial will treat the patients who have relapsed or refractory stomach cancer with an infusion of the patient's own T cells that have been genetically modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor(CAR) that will bind to tumor cells that express the EPCAM protein on the cell surface.The study will determine if these modified T cells help the body's immune system eliminate tumor cells.The trial will also study the safety of treatment with CAR-T, how long CAR-T cells stay in the patient's body and the impact of this treatment on survival.

Perioperative chemotherapy is the gold standard treatment in the resectable and advanced gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma. The efficacy of this strategy has been demonstrated in two randomized studies (1,2). It reduces tumour size before surgery, treats micrometastases and evaluates chemosensitivity. Disease free and overall survival rates were significantly improved with perioperative chemotherapy compared to surgery alone. However, the limitation of these studies is that among all patients requiring chemotherapy, almost 70% of patients will not have the complete sequence. This sequence is defined by the administration of 2 to 4 cycles before and 2 to 4 cycles after the surgery, according to the protocol. The major cause of absence or impossibility of realization of postoperative chemotherapy was the presence of postoperative complication, postoperative serious asthenia and impaired nutritional and physical status (1,2). Poor physical condition assessed by cardiopulmonary exercise testing, reflecting a reduced physiological reserve, is predictive of postoperative complications (3,4). A physical training, even during a short period and on a various population, is beneficial in improving physical condition, cardiopulmonary function and muscular mass of the patient (5-8). A prehabilitation over a 6 week period between surgical consultation and surgery decreases postoperative morbidity and the hospital stay in cardiovascular surgery but no study has ever been performed in the gastric or oesophageal cancer (7,9). Prehabilitation revolves around three axes: 1) a physical training based on initial cardiopulmonary exercise testing (VO2peak, anaerobic threshold (AT) and 6-min walk test (6MWT)), 3 times by week, supervised by a physical therapist 2) a nutritional care to ensure the compliance of the nutrition program and adapt the nutritional management based on protein and energy needs and on the level of spontaneous oral intake and 2) a psychological treatment by a psychologist to reduce preoperative anxiety. To our knowledge, no study ever focused on the gastroesophageal cancer. The benefit of prehabilitation in this cancer may be particularly important because 1) this surgery is associated with a high postoperative morbidity (40%, especially respiratory) and mortality (5%) 2) the physical and nutritional status of these patients is often precarious (cancer cachexia, gastroesophageal obstruction), and 3) the need to preoperative chemotherapy declines physical reserves and is associated with a lengthening of the time between consultation and surgery of more than 3 months (10). Also, the investigators hypothesize that with a physical training, a personalized nutritional support and a psychologist management may decrease postoperative complications, increase postoperative nutritional status and so, would allow for more patients to receive their full cancer treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate, in gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma, the effect of prehabilitation compared to conventional care, the percentage of patients reaching the complete oncological treatment decided in a multidisciplinary tumour board.

Taking into account the substantial doubts concerning the potential benefit of postoperative part in the perioperative chemotherapy regimen we designed a study assessing value of this approach in gastric cancer. To improve compliance with a protocol regimen of this aggressive combined therapy we replaced tested in the MAGIC trial ECF regimen with more effective and better tolerable EOX chemotherapy regimen. The value of postoperative three-cycle EOX regimen will be tested in patients with locoregionally advanced gastric cancer with positive pathological response to preoperative three-cycle EOX chemotherapy regimen. The patients will be randomized to the postoperative chemotherapy or to the follow-up arm.
