To learn about the effects of paclitaxel and gastrectomy (surgery to remove all or part of the stomach) on improving outcomes in patients with gastric cancer.
This phase III trial compares the effect of modified fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan (mFOLFIRINOX) to modified fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX) for the treatment of advanced, unresectable, or metastatic HER2 negative esophageal, gastroesophageal junction, and gastric adenocarcinoma. The usual approach for patients is treatment with FOLFOX chemotherapy. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Fluorouracil stops cells from making DNA and it may kill tumor cells. Leucovorin is used with fluorouracil to enhance the effects of the drug. Oxaliplatin works by killing, stopping, or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Some patients also receive an immunotherapy drug, nivolumab, in addition to FOLFOX chemotherapy. Immunotherapy may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Irinotecan blocks certain enzymes needed for cell division and DNA repair, and it may kill tumor cells. Adding irinotecan to the FOLFOX regimen could shrink the cancer and extend the life of patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancers.
This is an open label, phase II, multi-site trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of the combination of 5-FU, oxaliplatin, nal-IRI, and immunotherapy (plus trastuzumab for HER2-positive tumors) as first-line therapy for participants with advanced Esophageal and Gastric Adenocarcinoma (EGA). The investigators hypothesize that this drug combination will be better tolerated than current first-line chemotherapy combinations for this disease.
This is a Phase II treatment study analyzing the role of preoperative chemotherapy, preoperative laparoscopic HIPEC, and gastrectomy with CRS/HIPEC in gastric adenocarcinoma patients with cytology-positive only carcinomatosis, radiologically-occult carcinomatosis, or radiology apparent peritoneal-surface only metastatic disease.
This study is designed to assess the levels of drug exposure following treatment with tislelizumab administered as a subcutaneous (SC) injection compared to intravenous infusion (IV) as first-line therapy in adults with gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) that is locally advanced and cannot be surgically removed or has spread from the stomach to other areas of the body. Approximately 351 patients will be participating in this study. The study is composed of a screening period, a treatment period, and a follow-up period.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Efficacy of BL-M05D1 in Subjects with Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors.
Cancer is a condition where cells in a specific part of body grow and reproduce uncontrollably. The purpose of this study is to assess adverse events and change in disease activity when ABBV-400 is given in combination with Fluorouracil, Leucovorin, and a programmed cell death receptor 1 (PD1) inhibitor (Budigalimab) (AFLB) to adult participants to treat locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric, gastroesophageal junction, or esophageal adenocarcinoma (mGEA). ABBV-400 and Budigalimab are investigational drugs being developed for the treatment of mGEA. Fluorouracil and Leucovorin are drugs approved for the treatment of mGEA. This study will be divided into two stages, with the first stage treating participants with increasing doses of ABBV-400 within the AFLB regimen until the dose reached is tolerable and expected to be efficacious. Participants will then be randomized into groups called treatment arms where one group will receive fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX). A further two treatment groups will receive AFLB, but with two optimized doses of ABBV-400 to allow for the best dose to be studied in the future. Approximately 180 adult participants with mGEA will be enrolled in the study in 51 sites worldwide. In the dose escalation stage participants will be treated with increasing intravenous (IV) doses of ABBV-400 within the AFLB regimen until the dose reached is tolerable and expected to be efficacious. In the dose optimization stage participants will be receive FOLFOX or receive AFLB, but with one of two optimized doses of ABBV-400The study will run for a duration of approximately 6 years. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution (hospital or clinic). The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires and side effects.
This study will assess the efficacy, safety, optimal dose and ADA and NAbs development of TRK-950 at two separate dose levels in combination with ramucirumab and paclitaxel (RAM+PTX) as compared with RAM + PTX treatment alone in participants with gastric or gastro-esophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma.
This phase II clinical trial tests how well robotic cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in treating patients with gastric cancer that has spread to the tissue that lines the wall of the abdominal cavity (peritoneum). Gastric cancer is the third leading cause of cancer related deaths worldwide and peritoneal metastasis are found in 30% of patients at time of diagnosis. Patients with peritoneal metastasis have poor survival rates. Traditional surgery is done with a large incision and has a high complication rate and longer hospital stays. Robot assisted (robotic) cytoreduction is a surgical option that uses small incisions and there is less risk of complications. HIPEC involves infusing heated chemotherapy into the abdominal cavity during surgery. Robotic cytoreduction together with HIPEC may improve recovery and decrease complications after surgery.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the ability of Tadalafil alone and in combination with neoadjuvant FLOT (5-Fluorouracil, Oxaliplatin, and Docetaxel) chemotherapy to suppress myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in patients with resectable gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Resectable means the tumor may be removed through surgical intervention. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is chemotherapy received before the primary course of treatment i.e.surgical intervention. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is Tadalafil treatment with FLOT feasible and safe? * How does tadalafil treatment with FLOT affect the tumor microenvironment (TME)? * Will 8 weeks of neoadjuvant exposure to tadalafil with chemotherapy reduce MDSCs in the TME? Participants will receive Tadalafil for 14 days followed by combination of Tadalafil + FLOT for approximately 8 weeks as a part of standard of care neoadjuvant treatment in the window between cancer diagnosis and surgical intervention to remove their tumor. Tumor tissue, blood, and urine will be collected at the start of the study, after 2 weeks of treatment with Tadalafil alone, and around the time of surgical intervention. Saliva will also be collected at the start of the study.
