Inclusion Criteria

  • •1.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:
  • •a.Medical and technical operability, according to the techniques described in Chapter 12 Surgical TherapySurgical Therapy that are subtotal, total or transhiatal extended gastrectomy (patients planned to receive transthoracic esophagectomy are not eligible for the study)
  • •b.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 CISH
  • •2.No preceding cytotoxic or targeted therapy
  • •3.No prior partial or complete tumor resection
  • •4.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
  • •5.ECOG = 1
  • •6.Exclusion of distant metastases 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
  • •7.Laparoscopic exclusion of peritoneal carcinomatosis in case of ascites, peritoneal masses, or if otherwise suspected clinically.

  • •b.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.
  • •c.Serum creatinine = 1.5 x upper limit of normal
  • •d.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).
  • •e.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
  • •9.Patient able and willing to provide written informed consent and to comply with the study protocol and with the planned surgical procedures
  • •Are the trial subjects under 18? no

  • •7.Clinically significant valvular defect
  • •8.Past or current history of other malignancies not curatively treated and without evidence of disease for more than 5 years, except for curatively treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin and in situ carcinoma of the cervix
  • •9.Criteria of unresectability, e.g.:
  • •Radiologically documented evidence of major blood vessel invasion or encasement by cancer.
  • •Patients with involved retroperitoneal (e.g. para-aortal, paracaval or interaortocaval lymph nodes) or mesenterial lymph nodes (distant metastases!)
