Active clinical trials for "Stomach Neoplasms"

For locally advanced gastric cancer (cT3-4aN+M0), neoadjuvant chemotherapy can downstage T and N stage, increase the resectability of tumor, and finally improve the long-term survival. Combination of perioperative PD-1 antibody and chemotherapy for locally advanced gastric cancer could be a novel therapy to increase response rate and resectability and reduce recurrence rate. JS001 in this study is a Chinese anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody for injection which has been approved for melanoma. This study is a multi-center, open-label, randomized phase II clinical trial to evaluate tolerability, safety and efficacy of JS001 in combination with perioperative chemotherapy in locally advanced gastric cancer.

This is a phase II, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the antitumor activity, efficacy and safety of GEN-001 in combination with avelumab as a third line (3L) or greater line treatment which is not received the Standard of Care (SOC) for patients with PD-L1 positive advanced GC/Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma who are not received cancer immunotherapy regimens as mono or combination therapy.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of olaparib when given together with ramucirumab and how well they work in treating patients with gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic), has come back (recurrent), or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ramucirumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving olaparib and ramucirumab may work better in treating patients with gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer compared to ramucirumab and paclitaxel (a chemotherapy drug) or ramucirumab alone.

The purpose of study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with Nivolumab in combination with tegafur-gimeracil-oteracil potassium (S-1 therapy) or capecitabine + oxaliplatin (CapeOX therapy), in comparison with placebo in combination with S-1 therapy or CapeOX therapy, in pStage III gastric cancer (including esophagogastric junction cancer) after D2 or more extensive lymph node dissection.

The purpose of this study is to look at the effectiveness, safety, and antitumor activity of study drugs MEDI4736 in combination with olaparib (modules 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7) and MEDI4736 in combination with olaparib and bevacizumab (module 6). It will also examine what happens to the study drugs in the body and investigate how well the combination between MEDI4736, olaparib and bevacizumab is tolerated.

This is the first randomized controlled trial comparing laparoscopic and open gastrectomy for resectable gastric cancer in a Western population. The hypothesis is that laparoscopic gastrectomy will result in a lower post-operative burden by means of shorter post-operative hospital stay. Secondarily that laparoscopic gastrectomy is hypothesized to be associated with lower post-operative morbidity and readmissions, higher cost-effectiveness, and better post-operative quality of life, with similar mortality and oncologic outcomes, compared to open gastrectomy. The study starts on 1 December 2014. Inclusion and follow-up will take three and five years respectively. Short-term results will be analyzed and published after discharge of the last randomized patient.

Primary Objective: - To compare the 3-year progression free survival (PFS) in the two treatment arms. Secondary Objectives: Overall survival (OS). Postoperative pathological stage and R0 (complete) resection rate. Safety: Toxicities associated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, surgery, morbidity/mortality, toxicity of adjuvant chemotherapy.

In-depth understanding of molecular characteristics of gastric cancer enabled us to realize personalized medicine with targeted agents in gastric cancer treatment.The investigators initiated open-label, randomized, controlled phase II, multi-arm trial comparing targeted therapy based on tumor molecular profiling with standard paclitaxel therapy as second line treatment.

This study is a multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled study. The aim of this study is to compare survival rates and to observe quality of life and nutritional status according to follow-up period in patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for stage 2 or 3 gastric cancer.

Patients with resectable adenocarcinoma of the stomach or the esophagogastric junction without previous therapy will be treated with one of two chemotherapy combinations before and after surgery. One half of the patients gets 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), Leucovorin, Oxaliplatin and Docetaxel (FLOT), the others Oxaliplatin and Capecitabin (XELOX). Main objective of the study is histopathological regression rate.
