简要总结
Recently, growing evidences have suggested that immunotherapy represents a promising treatment option for the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced mismatch repair-deficient (dMMR)/microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) gastric cancer. In this study, we will explore the efficacy and safety of sintilimab and LDRT in the neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced dMMR/MSI-H G/GEJ cancer.
详细描述
This is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, phase Ib/II trial. In the phase Ib, 4 cases will be enrolled in each treatment group. In the phase II study, a total of 33 patients will be enrolled. Eligible patients will be registered and receive four cycles of sintilimab. Simultaneously, LDRT will be planned and administered. Radical D2 gastric cancer resection will be performed 4-6 weeks after the last administration of sintilimab. The primary endpoint of phase Ib is to determine the optimal radiation dose for phase II study. The primary endpoint of phase II is the pathological complete response (pCR) rate. Secondary endpoints include R0 resection rate, major pathological response (MPR), objective response rate (ORR), 3-year event-free survival (EFS) rate, 3-year overall survival (OS) rate and safety profile of the neoadjuvant regimen.

入选标准
- •Age 18-80 years.

- •Resectable G/GEJ cancer, as judged by experienced surgeons.
- •dMMR and/or MSI-H.
- •Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance score (ECOG PS) ≤
- •Agree to provide blood, feces, and tissue specimens.
- •The expected survival is longer than 6 months.
- •There was no previous antitumor treatment (including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, interventional therapy, and other treatments with antitumor effects).
- •Adequate organ and hematological function.
- •Strict contraception.
- •Patients must be able to understand and be willing to sign the written informed consent form. A signed informed consent form must be appropriately obtained prior to the conduct of any trial-specific procedure.
排除标准
- •Unable to comply with the research program or procedures.
- •Undergoing other drug clinical trials or having participated in any drug clinical trials one month before enrollment.
- •Active autoimmune disease or history of refractory autoimmune disease.
- •Receiving corticosteroids (> 10mg/d prednisone or equivalent dose of steroids) or other systematic immunosuppression therapies within 14 days before enrollment, excluding the following therapies: steroid hormone replacement therapy (≤10mg/d); local steroid therapy; and short-term, prophylactic steroid therapy for preventing allergies or nausea and vomiting.

- •Other tumors that have not been treated or exist at the same time, except carcinoma in situ of the cervix, treated basal cell carcinoma or superficial bladder tumor. If the tumor was cured and no evidence of disease was found for more than 3 years, the patient can be enrolled. All other tumors must be treated at least 3 years before enrollment.
- •Patients with a history of HIV infection or active hepatitis B/C.

- •Previously used similar immune checkpoint inhibitors.
- •Major surgery 4 weeks before recruitment, open biopsy or major trauma surgery (excluding biliary stents, or percutaneous biliary drainage).
- •Treatment with antitumor Chinese herbal medicine.
研究组 & 干预措施
sintilimab+LDRT
Laparoscopic exploration is required in all patients to detect occult peritoneal metastases.
All patients will start with one cycle of neoadjuvant therapy of sintilimab: 200 mg, iv drip, d1, q3w.
Then, LDRT will be performed in the target area (including the primary gastric lesion and positive/suspected positive lymph nodes).
After radiotherapy, patients will receive another three cycles of sintilimab. Radical D2 gastric cancer resection will be performed 4-6 weeks after the last administration of sintilimab.
The adjuvant therapy will start in 4-6 weeks after the surgery, and we recommend adjuvant treatment with sintilimab for up to 10 cycles.
干预措施: sintiliman plus LDRT (Drug)
