Modified Folinic Acid-Fluorouracil-Oxaliplatin Regimen + Capecitabine for Elderly With Metastatic...

Metastatic Gastric Cancer

Elderly patients are generally underrepresented in the study populations of combination chemotherapy trials. In gastric cancer patients, oxaliplatin has shown a more favorable toxicity profile than cisplatin. A combination chemotherapy of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) with oxaliplatin, mainly FOLFOX regimens, has been investigated in numerous phase II studies, using different doses and schedules, and has shown considerable antitumor activity. Insofar as toxicity is concerned, significant toxicities, including myelo-suppression and peripheral neuropathy, are a major issue for elderly patients. A modified FOLFOX regimen by omitting the administration of bolus 5-fluorouracil have shown a good profile of activity and tolerability in the elder population. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a modified FOLFOX (m FOLFOX) regimen for up to 8 cycles followed by capecitabine maintenance in elderly patients with metastatic gastric cancer and presenting associated disease(s)

Serum Cholesterol and Gastric Neoplasm

Gastric Cancer

Investigators have a plan to conduct nested case-control study to investigate the association between serum cholesterol levels including TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, triglyceride (TG), apolipoproteins and gastric neoplasm. In addition, further analyses were performed to evaluate the possible role of the serum cholesterol as a predictor for the differentiation and prognosis of gastric neoplasm.

Resistance to Immunotherapy in Gastric Cancer

Metastatic Gastric Cancer

This project seeks to analyze and define the mechanism (s) involved in the resistance to checkpoint therapy in metastatic GC patients. The investigators propose the use of a Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) assay that involves 395 genes allowing us to define a specific molecular signature to characterize responder and non-responder patients to checkpoint therapy in combination with IHC analyses of specific factors. Such signature (s) could then be used to predict which individuals who might get the most benefit out of checkpoint therapy treatment. Analysis will be perfomed retrospectively using biopsies provided by mGC patients recruited at the Red de Salud UC treated with checkpoint therapy, the response of patients to treatment is evaluated by RECIST 1.1 criteria and thereby they are classified as "responders" or "non-responders".

Real World Study of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors for Advanced Gastric Cancer

Gastric Cancer

Gastric cancer ranks as the fifth most common and the third most common cause of cancer deaths in the world. In spite of the progresses made in the diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer in the past decades, the prognosis is still unsatisfied mainly due to recurrence and distant metastasis. Surgical treatment is the first choice for the treatment of early gastric cancer, but it is prone to recurrence and metastasis after surgery. There are relatively few chemotherapy drugs for gastric cancer. Studies have shown that about 13% of gastric cancers have HER2 gene amplification, and there are no other known driver gene other than HER-2. At present, the targeted therapeutic drugs approved for gastric cancer in China are only trastuzumab and apatinib. Immune checkpoint inhibitors, including PD-1 inhibitors, PD-L1 inhibitors and CTLA-4 inhibitors, have achieved significant therapeutic effects in a variety of tumors and are expected to alter the current state of treatment of tumors. In gastric cancer, the KEYNOTE-012 study demonstated the efficacy of Pembrolizumab in patients with PD-L1 positive advanced gastric cancer. The study showed that 53% of patients had tumor retraction, and 22% achieved partial imaging remission with a median duration of 40 weeks. At the same time, Pembrolizumab is also less toxic than standard second-line chemotherapy. However, Are the Immune checkpoint inhibitors should be used as single-drug or in combination with chemotherapy? Are the Immune checkpoint inhibitors should be used in the first-line or in the back-line? And which is the best combination therapy? For these issues, there is no conclusion yet. This observational study included all patients with gastric cancer who used Immune checkpoint inhibitors in clinical practice, regardless of treatment lines and combination with different chemotherapy. Through follow-up observations, the aim of this study is to analyze the efficacy of Immune checkpoint inhibitors for gastric cancer in the real world, and to explore the differences in the efficacy of Immune checkpoint inhibitors in different stages of treatment, as well as the efficacy of different chemotherapy combinations, so as to provide clinical evidence for the use of immunotherapy for advanced gastric cancer.

Prediction of Benefit From Adjuvant Chemotherapy for pT1N1 Gastric Cancer

Gastric Cancer

To conduct a retrospective study to prove a hypothesis of "adjuvant chemotherapy provides survival benefit for patients of CTX-benefit group in gastric cancer of pT1N1, especially in high-risk group". This study is a pilot study and the result will be used as a reference for the upcoming prospective randomized controlled trial for same issue including estimating sample size. Two high-volume hospitals (Yonsei University Severance Hospital and Samsung Hospital) will participant this pilot study. FFPE sample blocks and clinical information pertaining to the patients who satisfied with selection criteria will be collected from two institutions. The primary end point of this study is disease-free survival (DFS) that is defined as the time from surgery to death or gastric cancer recurrence whichever occurred first; and overall survival (OS) that is defined as time from surgery to death by any causes. Clinical information such as age, sex, histology, Lauren classification, depth of invasion, number of retrieved and metastatic lymph nodes, sizes of tumor, location of tumor, gross type, lympho-vascular invasion, received chemotherapy or not will be centralized. One or 2 of 3mm core of tumor will be punched from FFPE and it will be delivered through Eppendorf tube to laboratory (Novomics Co. Ltd., Seoul, Korea). RNA will be extracted from the tissue and the pattern of RNA expression will be evaluated and each sample will be categorized into three risk group (high, intermediate, low risk group) and two predictive group (CTX-benefit and no-benefit group) by GMP-grade nProfiler 1TM Stomach Cancer Assay Kit (Novomics Co. Ltd., Seoul, Korea). Both clinical information and classification will be delivered to independent statisticians who are responsible to conduct statistical analyses.
