Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To determine the activity of doxorubicin, cisplatin and continuous infusion of 5-fluorouracil in patients with measurable, locally unresectable or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the stomach, GE junction, or esophagus.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Assess the safety of doxorubicin, cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil when given in combination to treat this patient population

  • evaluate the survival of this patient population.
