简要总结
- Usually the combination of fluoropyrimidine with platinum is used as a first line chemotherapy (for example, 5-FU+cisplatin, capecitabine+cisplatin, S-1+ cisplatin, 5-FU+oxaliplatin) in advanced gastric cancer.
- After failure with this combination, taxane-based regimen or irinotecan-based regimen is usually used. But, as a second-line regimen, the combination of topoisomerase inhibitor with taxane has not been fully evaluated until now.
- So we designed this phase I/II study to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of second-line chemotherapy with paclitaxel and irinotecan in fluoropyrimidine and platinum-pretreated advanced gastric cancer.
详细描述
In gastric cancer, several active chemotherapeutic agents have been introduced. Fluoropyrimidine, platinum, taxane and topoisomerase inhibitor are the most commonly used agents. Many available single or combination regimens are existed. But, there is no standard palliative chemotherapy regimen as a first line treatment in unresectable advanced gastric cancer. Thereafter there is also no standard second line regimen.
Usually the combination of fluoropyrimidine with platinum is used as a first line chemotherapy (for example, 5-FU+cisplatin, capecitabine+cisplatin, S-1+ cisplatin, 5-FU+oxaliplatin). After failure with this combination, taxane-based regimen or irinotecan-based regimen is usually used. But, as a second-line regimen, the combination of topoisomerase inhibitor with taxane has not been fully evaluated until now.
In some studies using docetaxel and irinotecan combination in gastric cancer, the toxicity is highly concerned. (Jatoi A et al. 2002, Lordick F etl al. 2003, S Enrech et al. 2003, Chang HM et al. 2003) The combination of paclitaxel and irinotecan in gastric cancer is evaluated in two studies until now as far as we know (K Kobayashi et al. 2006, Hecht JR et al. 2003). These are phase I/II design and used this combination as first or second line treatment of gastric cancer. The response rate is 29.6% and 27% respectively. In one study, grade 3,4 hematologic toxicity is 33.3%. The dosing schedule is different between these two studies.
In one study, paclitaxel 50mg/m2 and irinotecan 50mg/m2 is used day 1and day 8 every 3 weeks. In the other study, paclitaxel 100mg/m2 and irinotecan 225mg/m2 is used every 3 weeks.
In these studies, the state of UGT1A1 polymorphism of enrolled patients has not been reported. Recently it is well known that the UGT1A1 polymorphism influences on the toxicity profile of irinotecan, e,g. myelosuppression and diarrhea. If a patient with UGT1A1*28 (7/7 homozygosity) is included in the low level of phase I period, the MTD of irinotecan might be set up in low dose without showing sufficient efficacy.

入选标准
- •Age 18 - 70 years
- •A patient who is able to walk and should have ECOG performance status of 0-
- •Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the stomach
- •Unresectable locally advanced or initially metastatic or recurrent after curative resection
- •Prior one regimen chemotherapy including fluoropyrimidine and platinum. (FP, XP, TS-1+cisplatin, FOLFOX)
- •A patient with at least one measurable primary lesion of which the diameter is confirmed to be 10mm in Spiral CT or multidetector CT (MD CT), or 20 mm or longer in conventional CT (it should be used by a consistent method during the study period).
- •A patient with the willingness to comply with the study protocol during the study period and capable of complying with it.
- •A patient who signed the informed consent prior to the participation of the study and who understands that he/she has a right to withdrawal from participation in the study at any time without any disadvantages.
排除标准
- •A patient with no measurable disease
- •A patient with previous chemotherapy without containing fluoropyrimidine or platinum.
- •A patient with UGT1A1*28 allele ((TA)7/7 homozygosity)
- •A patient with previous active or passive immunotherapy.
- •A patient with intestinal obstruction or impending obstruction, recent active upper GI bleeding
- •A pregnant or lactating patient
- •A patient of childbearing potential without being tested for pregnancy at baseline or with being tested for positive. (A postmenopausal woman with the amenorrhea period of at least 12 months or longer is considered to have non-childbearing potential.)
- •A man or woman of childbearing potential who has no willingness to use a contraceptive measure during the study.
- •A patient with history of another malignant disease within past 5 years, except curatively treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin and cervical carcinoma in situ are excluded.
- •A patient with history of uncontrolled seizures, central nervous system disorder or psychiatric disorders that are considered clinically significant by the investigator that would prohibit the understanding of informed consent or that may be considered to interfere with the compliance of the administration of the study medications.
- •A patient with clinically significant (i.e. active) heart disease (e.g. congestive heart failure, symptomatic coronary artery diseases, cardiac arrhythmias, etc) or myocardial infarction within past 12 months.
- •A patient with interstitial pneumonia or diffused symptomatic fibrosis of the lungs.
- •A patient with peripheral neuropathy of Grade 1 by NCI CTC, caused by other factors (e.g. alcohol, diabetes, etc). If the absence of deep tendon reflexes (DTRs) is the only neurologic disorder, this condition does not apply to the exclusion criteria.
- •Organ allogenic transplantation requiring immunosuppressive therapy.
