Prospective, open, multi-centre phase I/II trial to assess safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy with docetaxel and oxaliplatin in patients with adenocarcinoma of the oesophagogastric junction.

ABSTRACT: This phase I/II-trial assessed the dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy (RCT) with docetaxel and oxaliplatin in patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the oesophagogastric junction.Patients received neoadjuvant radiotherapy (50.4 Gy) together with weekly docetaxel (20 mg/m(2) at dose level (DL) 1 and 2, 25 mg/m(2) at DL 3) and oxaliplatin (40 mg/m(2) at DL 1, 50 mg/m(2) at DL 2 and 3) over 5 weeks. The primary endpoint was the DLT and the MTD of the RCT regimen. Secondary endpoints included overall response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS).A total of 24 patients were included. Four patients were treated at DL 1, 13 patients at DL 2 and 7 patients at DL 3. The MTD of the RCT was considered DL 2 with docetaxel 20?mg/m(2) and oxaliplatin 50 mg/m(2). Objective response (CR/PR) was observed in 32% (7/22) of patients. Eighteen patients (75%) underwent surgery after RCT. The median PFS for all patients (n?=?24) was 6.5 months. The median overall survival for all patients (n?=?24) was 16.3 months. Patients treated at DL 2 had a median overall survival of 29.5 months.Neoadjuvant RCT with docetaxel 20 mg/m2 and oxaliplatin 50 mg/m(2) was effective and showed a good toxicity profile. Future studies should consider the addition of targeted therapies to current neoadjuvant therapy regimens to further improve the outcome of patients with advanced cancer of the oesophagogastric junction.NCT00374985.

Project description:BackgroundAdding anti-angiogenics to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for localized gastric cancer is recognized as a promising strategy, but its clinical value remains to be defined.MethodsThis single-center, single-arm, phase 2 trial included patients with locally advanced (cT3/4aN+M0) adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) who received three cycles of intravenous oxaliplatin (135 mg/m2 on day 1), oral capecitabine (1000 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1 to 14), and oral apatinib for 21 days (250 mg once daily in the first two cycles, and further increased to 500 mg daily in the third cycle based on whether any adverse event of grade 3 or worse occurred), and an additional cycle of oxaliplatin plus capecitabine, followed by gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients who achieved an objective response according to RECIST version 1.1.ResultsBetween April 28, 2017, and October 23, 2019, 37 patients were screened and 35 participants were included. Of the 32 patients assessable for efficacy and safety, objective responses were achieved in 25 (78.1%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 60.0% to 90.7%) patients. Thirty-one (96.9%) patients received R0 resection, two (6.3%) patients achieved pathological complete response, and 11 (34.4%) patients achieved pathological response. At the data cutoff date (September 30, 2021), the median event-free survival was 42.6 (95% CI, 16.2 to not reached) months, and the median overall survival was not reached. The most common grade 3 or 4 treatment-emergent adverse events were hypertension (9/32, 28.1%), thrombocytopenia (7/32, 21.9%), and neutropenia (5/32, 15.6%). Seven (21.9%) patients developed surgical complications, and the most common one was intra-abdominal abscess (4/32, 12.5%).ConclusionsThe concomitant use of apatinib, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine as neoadjuvant therapy showed promising efficacy and manageable safety profile in patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the stomach or GEJ, and further phase 3 study is warranted.Trial registrationThis study was registered with ClinicalTrial.gov ( NCT03229096 ).

Project description:Lessons learnedAdding docetaxel to the modified FOLFOX7 backbone (DOF) is a feasible three-drug combination therapy for advanced gastric cancer with high activity, providing evidence that leucovorin is not necessary in this setting.The DOF regimen represents an alternative to the FLOT (5-FU 2,600 mg/m2 as 24-hour infusion with leucovorin 200 mg/m2, oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2, and docetaxel 50 mg/m2) regimen that can be considered in select patients with advanced gastric cancer and is a potential choice in the curative setting.BackgroundThe combination of docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) demonstrates high response rates in advanced gastric cancer, albeit with increased toxicity. Given the efficacy of platinum-taxane-fluoropyrimidine regimens, this phase II study evaluated the efficacy and toxicity of docetaxel, oxaliplatin, and 5-FU (DOF) for the treatment of metastatic or unresectable gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma.MethodsPatients with metastatic or unresectable gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma with no prior therapy for metastatic disease received docetaxel 50 mg/m2 on day 1, oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 on day 1, and 5-FU 2,400 mg/m2 continuous intravenous infusion over 46 hours; cycles were repeated every 2 weeks. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR).ResultsForty-four patients were enrolled. Assessment of treatment response and toxicity was feasible in 41 and 43 patients, respectively. ORR was 73.2% (68.3% partial response; 4.9% complete response). Therapy was discontinued for progressive disease in 53%, toxicity in 26%, and death on treatment in 16%. Two patients underwent surgical resection. Thirty-three patients (76.7%) received at least seven cycles (7-34). Grade 3-4 toxicities occurred in 31 patients (72.1%), including neutropenia (23.3%), neurologic (20.9%), and diarrhea (14.0%). Median overall survival was 10.3 months.ConclusionDOF demonstrates a high response rate, expected safety profile, and prolonged survival and remains an option for select patients with unresectable or metastatic gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma.

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.
