简要总结

Previous studies provide a strong theoretical rationale for the conduct of a randomized study evaluating the efficacy and safety of ramucirumab in combination with FLOT in the perioperative treatment of resectable adenocarcinoma of the stomach or GEJ.

详细描述

This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label study including patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the stomach and GEJ scheduled to receive perioperative chemotherapy.

The scope of the phase II portion of the trial is to evaluate pathological response rates of either regimen assessed by a centralized pathology and evaluate safety and tolerability.

Patients with locally advanced esophagogastric adenocarcinoma (i.e. cT2 any N or any T N-positive) with exclusion of distant metastases will be included in this trial.

Patients will be centrally reviewed and then stratified by tumor site (GEJ vs. gastric), histological type (intestinal vs. diffuse/mixed or unknown) and clinical stage (T1/2 vs. T3/4 and/or N+) and randomized 1:1 to receive either FLOT (Arm A) or FLOT/ramucirumab (Arm B).

Arm A (FLOT) Patients randomized to Arm A will receive 4 pre-operative cycles (8 weeks) of biweekly FLOT (Docetaxel 50 mg/m² in 250 ml NaCl 0.9%, iv over 1 h; Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m² in 500 ml G5%, iv over 2h; Leucovorin 200 mg/m² in 250 ml NaCl 0.9%, iv over 30 min; 5-FU 2600 mg/m², iv over 24 h, q2wk) of the preoperative treatment phase. Surgery in Arm A is planned to occur 4 to 6 weeks after d1 of last FLOT. Patients will receive 4 additional post-operative cycles (8 weeks) of FLOT in the post-operative treatment phase. Post-operative treatment should start 6 to 8 weeks, but at maximum 12 weeks after surgery.

入选标准

•Histologically confirmed, resectable adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction (AEG/GEJ-type II-III) or the stomach (uT2, uT3, uT4, any N category, M0), or any T N+ M0 patient, with the following specifications:
•Medical and technical operability, according to the techniques described in Chapter 12 Surgical Therapy that are subtotal, total or transhiatal extended gastrectomy (patients planned to receive transthoracic esophagectomy are not eligible for the study)
•Participating sites in PETRARCA study: Negative HER-2 detection (score IHC HER-2 0 or IHC HER-2 1+ ); IHC HER-2 2+ and negative by FISH, SISH or CISH1
•No preceding cytotoxic or targeted therapy
•No prior partial or complete tumor resection
•Female and male patients ≥ 18 and ≤ 70 years. Patients in reproductive age must be willing to use adequate contraception during the study and for 7 months after the end of ramucirumab treatment (Appropriate contraception is defined as surgical sterilization (e.g., bilateral tubal ligation, vasectomy), hormonal contraception (implantable, patch, oral), and double-barrier methods (any double combination of: IUD, male or female condom with spermicidal gel, diaphragm, sponge, cervical cap)). Female patients with childbearing potential need to have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days before study start.
•Exclusion of distant metastasis by CT or MRI of abdomen, pelvis, and thorax, bone scan or MRI (if bone metastases are suspected due to clinical signs). Exclusion of the infiltration of any adjacent organs or structures by CT or MRI.
•Laparoscopic exclusion of peritoneal carcinomatosis, in case of ascites, peritoneal masses, or if otherwise suspected clinically
•Adequate hematological, hepatic and renal function parameters:
•Leukocytes ≥ 3000/mm³, platelets ≥ 100,000/mm³, neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1000/µL, hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL (5.58 mmol/L),
•Adequate coagulation function as defined by International Normalized Ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5, and a partial thromboplastin time (PTT) ≤ 5 seconds above the ULN (unless receiving anticoagulation therapy). Patients receiving warfarin/phenprocoumon must be switched to low molecular weight heparin and have achieved stable coagulation profile prior to randomization.
•Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal
•Urinary protein ≤1+ on dipstick or routine urinalysis (UA; if urine dipstick or routine analysis is ≥2+, a 24-hour urine collection for protein must demonstrate <1000 mg of protein in 24 hours to allow participation in this protocol).
•Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal, AST and ALT ≤ 3.0 x upper limit of normal, alkaline phosphatase ≤ 6 x upper limit of normal
•Patient able and willing to provide written informed consent and to comply with the study protocol and with the planned surgical procedures
