Molecularly Tailored Therapy for Patients With Metastatic Cancer of the Esophagus and Stomach

NCT02358863

Description:

The purpose of this study is to determine whether molecular profile-directed therapy (otherwise known as personalized treatment) can improve the effectiveness of standard chemotherapy combinations for patients with esophagogastric adenocarcinoma. A series of tests will be performed on a sample of tumor; based on the results of these tests, a patient will be assigned to a chemotherapy treatment.

Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Advanced, measurable metastatic esophagogastric adenocarcinoma by RECIST criteria

          -  Patients who have had surgery or radiotherapy with or without neoadjuvant or adjuvant
             chemotherapy (the wash-out period will be at least 1 month)

          -  Patients who are not eligible for resection and are chemotherapy naïve

             guidance

          -  Patients must have adequate organ function

          -  Patients must provide written informed consent

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Active concurrent malignancy, other than superficial, non-squamous cell carcinoma of
             the skin or uterine cervix, within the past three years

          -  ECOG performance status worse than 2

          -  Prior oral or intravenous chemotherapy for metastatic disease

          -  Patients with comorbidities that prevent them from being able to receive the
             chemotherapy regimen

          -  cardiac ejection fraction 45% or greater
      
Maximum Eligible Age:N/A
Minimum Eligible Age:18 Years
Eligible Gender:All
Healthy Volunteers:No

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:The Number of Patients With Tumor Size Reduction (Objective Response Rate)
Time Frame:1 year
Safety Issue:
Description:Objective response rate is the sum of partial responses plus complete responses and will be assessed per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1) for target lesions and assessed by CT: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions.
