Trial summary

Gastric cancer with para-aortic lymph node (PAN) involvement is regarded as advanced disease, and only chemotherapy is recommended from the guidelines. In unresectable cases, neoadjuvant chemotherapy could prolong survival if conversion to resectability could be achieved. Read more about this study

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary study end point was the response rate of preoperative XELOX followed by surgery in gastric cancer patients with PAN involvement

    evaluation will be based on tumor assessment with follow-up, including chest and upper-abdominal During preoperative treatment period, CT scan will be performed every 6 -8 weeks (2 cycles after).After surgery, CT scan will be planned every 3 months, brain MRI and bone scan (ECT) will be performed if any suspected symptoms occur.

    Measured: 8 Months after the last subject participate in

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. progression-free survival (PFS)

    be based on tumor assessment with follow-up, including chest and upper-abdominal During preoperative treatment period, CT scan will be performed every 6 -8 weeks (2 cycles after).After surgery, CT scan will be planned every 3 months, brain MRI and bone scan (ECT) will be performed if any suspected symptoms occur.

    Measured: 40 Months after the last subject participate in

  2. overall survival

    out-patient clinic and telephone visit will be done every 3 months for the first two years, and every 6 months after two years

    Measured: 3 years after the last subject participate in

  3. Grade 3 or 4 Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety

    Adverse Events will measure in the whole study according to CTC-AE 4.0

    Measured: 1 year after the last subject finish the treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Capecitabine and Oxaliplatin in people with Advanced Gastric Cancer, run by Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Feb 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary study end point was the response rate of preoperative XELOX followed by surgery in gastric cancer patients with PAN involvement (time frame: 8 Months after the last subject participate in). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Feb 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
