Perioperative chemotherapy with docetaxel plus oxaliplatin and S-1 (DOS) versus oxaliplatin plus S-1 (SOX) for the treatment of locally advanced gastric or gastro-esophageal junction adenocarcinoma (MATCH): an open-label, randomized, phase 2 clinical trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It remains unclear whether addition of docetaxel to the combination of a platinum and fluoropyrimidine could provide more clinical benefits than doublet chemotherapies in the perioperative treatment for locally advanced gastric/gastro-esophageal junction (LAG/GEJ) cancer in Asia. In this randomized, phase 2 study, we assessed the efficacy and safety of perioperative docetaxel plus oxaliplatin and S-1 (DOS) versus oxaliplatin plus S-1 (SOX) in LAG/GEJ adenocarcinoma patients.

Methods

Patients with cT3-4 N_any M0 G/GEJ adenocarcinoma were randomized (1:1) to receive 4 cycles of preoperative DOS or SOX followed by D2 gastrectomy and another 4 cycles of postoperative chemotherapy. The primary endpoint was major pathological response (MPR).

Results

From Aug, 2015 to Dec, 2019,154 patients were enrolled and 147 patients included in final analysis, with a median age of 60 (26-73) years. DOS resulted in significantly higher MPR (25.4 vs. 11.8%, P = 0.04). R0 resection rate, the 3-year PFS and 3-year OS rates were 78.9 vs. 61.8% (P = 0.02), 52.3 vs. 35% (HR 0.667, 95% CI: 0.432-1.029, Log rank P = 0.07) and 57.5 vs. 49.2% (HR 0.685, 95% CI: 0.429-1.095, Log rank P = 0.11) in the DOS and SOX groups, respectively. Patients who acquired MPR experienced significantly better survival. DOS had similar tolerance to SOX.

Conclusions

Perioperative DOS improved MPR significantly and tended to produce longer PFS compared to SOX in LAG/GEJ cancer in Asia, and might be considered as a preferred option for perioperative chemotherapy and worth further investigation.

Project description:IntroductionCuring locally advanced gastric cancer (GC) or gastro-oesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (GEJ) with surgery alone is challenging. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCT) has become the standard treatment for patients with locally advanced GC/GEJ, and SOX is the most common neoadjuvant regimen in China. The generally good tolerability in patients and fruquintinib's low potential for drug-drug interaction suggest that it may be highly suitable for combinations with other antineoplastic therapies. A combination of fruquintinib, S-1 and oxaliplatin can be a promising neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced GC/GEJ. In this phase II study, we aim to investigate the efficacy and toxicity of fruquintinib plus SOX as neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced GC/GEJ.Methods and analysisThe FRUTINEOGA trial is a prospective, multicentre, phase II, single-arm, open-label clinical trial that will enrol 54 patients. Eligible patients will be registered, enrolled and receive 2-4 cycles of fruquintinib plus SOX, after which surgery will be performed and tumour regression will be evaluated. The primary endpoint is the pathological remission rate, and the secondary endpoints are disease-free survival, overall survival, objective response rate, major pathological response rate and R0 resection rate.Ethics and disseminationWritten informed consent will be required from all patients enrolled, and it will be provided by them. The study protocol received approval from the independent ethical review committee of Guangxi Medical University Cancer Hospital, Wuming Hospital of Guangxi Medical University and Wuzhou Red Cross Hospital, Wuzhou Gongren Hospital (approval number: CS2021(96)). We will submit the finalised paper for publication on completing the analyses. This study will provide valuable insights to clinicians regarding the safety and efficacy of incorporating fruquintinib into SOX as neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced GC/GEJ. The findings have the potential to inform future research proposals and may guide the use of fruquintinib in the neoadjuvant setting for locally advanced GC/GEJ.Trial registration numberNCT05122091.

Project description:ImportancePerioperative chemotherapy is a potential treatment for locally advanced gastric cancer. However, the optimal chemotherapy regimen remains unknown.ObjectiveTo investigate the safety and efficacy of S-1 plus oxaliplatin (SOX) vs fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) as a perioperative chemotherapy regimen for patients with locally advanced gastric cancer.Design, setting, and participantsIn this phase 3, open-label, multicenter, randomized clinical trial, patients from 12 Chinese hospitals were enrolled between June 2011 and August 2016, with a last follow-up date of September 2019. The primary tumor was evaluated as either invading the serosa or the adjacent structures with or without metastatic lymph nodes, and with no evidence of distant metastases. Data were analyzed from December 2019 to June 2020.InterventionsPatients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either 6 perioperative (2-4 preoperative and 2-4 postoperative) 3-week cycles of 130 mg/m2 oxaliplatin on day 1 and 80 to 120 mg/d S-1 orally daily for 2 weeks (SOX) or 130 mg/m2 oxaliplatin, 400 mg/m2 fluorouracil, 400 mg/m2 leucovorin, and 2400 mg/m2 fluorouracil as 46-hour infusion on day 1 (FOLFOX).Main outcomes and measuresThe primary end point was 3-year overall survival (OS). An absolute noninferiority margin of -8% was chosen.ResultsA total of 583 patients were enrolled; 293 were randomized to the SOX group and 290 were randomized to the FOLFOX group. Twelve patients (2.1%) refused preoperative chemotherapy (5 patients in the SOX group and 7 patients in the FOLFOX group), leaving a total of 288 patients in the SOX group (median [range] age, 61 [24 to 78] years; 197 men [68.4%]) and 283 patients in the FOLFOX group (median [range] age, 62 [24 to 80] years; 209 men [73.9%]) who received preoperative chemotherapy. The 3-year OS rate was 75.2% (95% CI, 70.3% to 80.5%) in the SOX group and 67.8% (95% CI, 62.5% to 73.5%) in the FOLFOX group. The absolute difference of 3-year OS rate between the 2 groups was 7.4% (95% CI, -0.1% to 14.9%), which was greater than the prespecified noninferiority margin (-8%) and showed the noninferiority of perioperative chemotherapy with SOX compared with FOLFOX.Conclusions and relevanceIn this randomized clinical trial, SOX was noninferior to FOLFOX as perioperative chemotherapy for patients with locally advanced gastric cancer and could be recommended as an alternative treatment for these patients in Asia.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01364376.

Project description:BackgroundPerioperative therapy can improve the low survival benefit of surgery alone for locally advanced gastric cancer. The introduction of immunotherapy and its combination with chemotherapy and/or targeted therapy has created more opportunities for optimal treatment. The aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy and safety of S-1 plus oxaliplatin (SOX) combined with apatinib (SOXA) or SOX combined with apatinib and camrelizumab (SOXAP) versus SOX as the perioperative therapy for resectable, locally advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma.MethodsThe study was a multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-controlled trial conducted in China. Eligible participants were randomized to the SOX, SOXA, and SOXAP groups. Patients received three pre-operative and three postoperative 3-week cycles of SOX or SOXA or SOXAP, followed by apatinib (SOXA group) or apatinib combined with camrelizumab (SOXAP group) for 3 cycles, which could be continued at the investigator's choice. Overall treatment is up to 1 year of apatinib and up to 17 cycles of camrelizumab. SOX is 130 mg/m2 oxaliplatin on day 1 plus S-1 orally twice daily on days 1 to 14. Apatinib is orally administered at a dose of 500 mg (SOXA group) or 250 mg (SOXAP group) on days 1 to 21, and camrelizumab 200 mg is given intravenously once every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was major pathological response assessed by blinded independent review committee. The secondary endpoints included pathological complete response, lymph node status after neoadjuvant therapy, margin-free resection rate, progression-free survival (PFS), disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), and safety.DiscussionThe trial provides important data regarding the use of perioperative SOXAP and SOXA for patients with resectable, locally advanced gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma. The results will contribute to optimal perioperative disease treatment.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov (no. NCT04208347). First posted on December 23, 2019.

Project description:Lessons learnedThe NEO-CLASSIC study provided valuable insight for the clinical efficacy and tolerability profiles of perioperative chemotherapy with oxaliplatin and capecitabine, plus gastrectomy, in patients with localized resectable gastric cancer.The study was designed to explore the potential survival benefits of an eight-cycle, perioperative oxaliplatin and capecitabine (XELOX) schedule in the above-mentioned setting and to explore the feasibility of prolonging the cycles of preoperative chemotherapy. The projected endpoint was not met.BackgroundThis multicenter, open-label study (NEO-CLASSIC) evaluated the efficacy and safety of oxaliplatin and capecitabine (XELOX), plus D2 gastrectomy, in localized resectable gastric cancer.MethodsPatients aged 18-75 years with histologically-confirmed gastric adenocarcinoma (stage T2-4a/N+M0) were given eight cycles of XELOX (four preoperatively, four postoperatively). Each 3-week cycle comprised capecitabine 1,000 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1-14 and oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 on day 1. Curative D2 gastrectomy was scheduled 2-4 weeks after the last preoperative cycle. The primary objective of the study was to determine the objective response rate (ORR) of XELOX in the preoperative setting. Sample size was calculated by assuming that a minimum of 47 cases would be required to increase the ORR by 15% (from 40% to 55%). With an estimated 10% dropout rate, 55 patients would have to be recruited.ResultsFifty-five patients were enrolled, and one was excluded because of screening failure. R0 resections were achieved in 45 of 54 intent-to-treat patients (83.3%), and four patients received R1 resections (Fig. 1). There were no complete responses, 27 (50.0%) partial responses, 22 cases (40.7%) of stable disease, and 4 (7.4%) of progressive disease. The objective response rate was 50.0%. Median follow-up was 52.97 months; 30 patients (55.6%) had disease progression (Table 1), and median progression-free survival was 20.10 (95% confidence interval: 4.31-35.89) months; median overall survival was 30.77 months (95% confidence interval was not yet available) (Fig. 2). Fifty-four patients completed 209 cycles of preoperative chemotherapy; 42 patients received 133 cycles of postoperative chemotherapy (Table 3). The rate of grade 3-4 adverse events was 8.5% (29/342 cycles); the most frequent events were neutropenia (9/342 cycles) and leukopenia (4/342 cycles).ConclusionThese findings suggest that combination therapy with capecitabine and oxaliplatin as perioperative chemotherapy, followed by D2 gastrectomy, is effective and safe in late-stage, locally advanced gastric cancer. Although enrollment exceeded the 47 patients required to identify an increase in the ORR by 15% (from 40% to 55%), results did not meet the primary endpoint.

Project description:BackgroundBased on the phase 3 PRODIGY study, neoadjuvant docetaxel, oxaliplatin, and S-1 (DOS) have emerged as a viable treatment option for Asian patients with resectable locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC). This phase 2 study evaluated the efficacy and safety of combining neoadjuvant durvalumab with DOS, followed by surgery and adjuvant durvalumab plus S-1 chemotherapy, for resectable LAGC.MethodsPatients with LAGC with cT2/3N+or cT4Nany tumors were enrolled in this study. Patients with proficient mismatch repair protein (pMMR) tumors received three cycles of neoadjuvant durvalumab plus DOS, administered every 3 weeks, followed by surgery and adjuvant S-1 plus durvalumab (main study arm). The primary endpoints were the rate of pathologic complete regression (pCR) and safety. An exploratory arm evaluated patients with deficient mismatch repair protein (dMMR) tumors, who received three cycles of neoadjuvant durvalumab and tremelimumab, followed by surgery and adjuvant durvalumab.ResultsIn the main study arm, 50 pMMR patients were enrolled, and received at least one dose of neoadjuvant treatment. The median age was 63 years, with 72.0% being men. 18 and 32 patients presented with clinical stage II and III tumors, respectively. 49 (98.0%) underwent surgery, with 45 achieving R0 resection. A pCR rate of 30.0% was observed, meeting the prespecified primary efficacy endpoint. With a median follow-up of 21.8 months, the 3-year progression-free survival and overall survival rates were 69.9% and 88.1%, respectively. 10% of patients experienced predefined unacceptable severe toxicities, including febrile neutropenia (n=3) and persistent G4 neutropenia (n=2) lasting more than 7 days, thereby meeting the primary safety endpoint. Nine patients with dMMR tumors were enrolled in the exploratory arm. All nine underwent surgery, with a pCR rate of 22.2%.ConclusionsThis study met its primary efficacy and safety endpoints. The combination of neoadjuvant durvalumab plus DOS, followed by surgery and adjuvant durvalumab plus S-1 chemotherapy, warrants further investigation in a phase 3 trial for Asian patients with LAGC.Clinical trial information04221555.
