Active clinical trials for "Stomach Neoplasms"

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of genetic analysis-guided dosing of paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and irinotecan hydrochloride (FOLFIRABRAX) in treating patients with gastrointestinal cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and irinotecan hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Genetic analysis may help doctors determine what dose of irinotecan hydrochloride patients can tolerate.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of TAS-118 plus Oxaliplatin compared with S-1 plus Cisplatin in overall survival in patients with advanced gastric cancer.

Open-label, multicenter study to assess 250µg/0.2ml G17DT injection at weeks 0, 2 and 6. At or after week 20 and up to and including week 44. Subjects who raised antibodies to G17DT were given an additional dose of 125µg/0.1ml or 250µg/0.2ml G17DT between weeks 20-44 (study duration 52 weeks).

We planned this study to investigate the efficacy and safety of XELOX (capecitabine and oxaliplatin) plus lapatinib treatment in HER2-positive gastric cancer patients with liver metastasis.

This is an extension study to evaluate the safety of Veliparib monotherapy or in combination with Carboplatin plus Paclitaxel or modified Folinic Acid/Fluorouracil/Irinotecan (FOLFIRI) in subjects with solid tumors.

The study is intended to investigate the safety of BYL719 and AUY922 in patients with advanced gastric cancer, and to determine the MTD and/or RDE of both drugs in combination. In addition, the preliminary efficacy of BYL719 in combination with AUY922, and the pharmacokinetics of both drugs will be assessed. Patients will be eligible for this study, if their tumors carry either a molecular alteration of PIK3CA, or an amplification of HER2. The study includes a dose escalation part followed by a safety expansion phase.

This study is being done to determine the dose of a chemotherapy drug (irinotecan [irinotecan hydrochloride]) that can be tolerated as part of a combination of drugs. There is a combination of chemotherapy drugs often used to treat gastrointestinal cancer, which consists of 5-FU (fluorouracil), leucovorin (leucovorin calcium), irinotecan and oxaliplatin and is known as "FOLFIRINOX". FOLFIRINOX is a current drug therapy combination (or regimen) used for people with advanced pancreatic cancer, although this combination is not Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved for this indication. FOLFIRINOX was recently shown in a separate clinical trial to increase survival compared to another commonly used drug in pancreatic cancer called gemcitabine. FOLFIRINOX is also a reasonable regimen for those with other advanced cancers of the gastrointestinal tract, including colon cancer, rectal cancer, esophagus cancer, stomach cancer, gall bladder cancer, bile duct cancer, ampullary cancer, and cancers with an unknown primary location. The best dose of irinotecan to use in FOLFIRINOX is not known. This study will analyze one gene (uridine 5'-diphospho [UDP] glucuronosyltransferase 1 family, polypeptide A1 [UGT1A1] gene) of subjects for the presence of an alteration in that gene, which may affect how the body handles irinotecan. Genes help determine some of the investigators individual characteristics, such as eye color, height and skin tone. Genes may also determine why people get certain diseases and how medicines may affect them. The result of the genetic analysis will divide subjects into one of three groups: A, B, or C. Group A (approximately 45% of subjects) will receive the standard dose of irinotecan. Group B (approximately 45% of subjects) will receive a lower dose of irinotecan. Group C (approximately 10% of subjects) will receive an even lower dose of irinotecan

The objective of the trial is to compare disease-free survival between adjuvant XELOX alone vs XELOX with concurrent capecitabine and radiotherapy in curatively resected gastric cancer patients with D2 dissection.

To estimate and compare the response rates in patients treated with mDCF based on methylation status of CHFR.

safety evaluation of endoscopic sub-mucosal dissection with nestis enki2 system. This system is a new water jet system which allows to perform Endoscopic submucosal dissection with a bifunctional catheter (injection and cutting).
