A Study of Xeloda (Capecitabine) in Combination With Chemotherapy in Patients With Advanced and/or Metastatic Gastric Cancer.

Registration Number
NCT00454636
Lead Sponsor
Hoffmann-La Roche
Brief Summary

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of Xeloda, given in combination with standard chemotherapy regimens, for the first-line treatment of advanced and/or metastatic gastric cancer. All patients will receive Xeloda in combination with one of 4 standard chemotherapy regimens; the dose of Xeloda will be from 625mg/m2 - 1000mg/m2 bid orally, depending on the chemotherapy regimen used. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With Grade 3 Hand-Foot Syndrome (HFS)Approximately 3.25 years
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall Response Rate (ORR)Approximately 3.25 years

ORR was defined as the percentage of participants achieving either a complete response (CR) or a partial response (PR), based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v.1.0 criteria. CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions; for non-target lesions, disappearance of lesions and normal tumor marker levels. PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, using the baseline sum LD as reference.

Progression-Free Survival (PFS)Approximately 3.25 years

PFS was defined as the time from the start of treatment to the first documentation of disease progression or death for any cause. Disease progression was based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v.1.0 criteria and was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.

Overall Survival (OS)Approximately 3.25 years

OS was defined as the time elapsing from the date of the start of treatment until death, or last known follow-up.

Time to ResponseApproximately 3.25 years

Time to Response was defined as the date of start of treatment until the first date of complete response (CR) or a partial response (PR), based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v.1.0 criteria. CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions; for non-target lesions, disappearance of lesions and normal tumor marker levels. PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, using the baseline sum LD as reference.

Duration of ResponseApproximately 3.25 years

Duration of Response was defined as the time of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) until the first date of recurrent or progressive disease, based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v.1.0 criteria. CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions; for non-target lesions, disappearance of lesions and normal tumor marker levels. PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, using the baseline sum LD as reference. Progressive disease was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.
