Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Clinical Response Rate of an Induction Regimen Consisting of Irinotecan, Cisplatin and Cetuximab

    Clinical response rate is defined as the percentage of patients who responded to the induction regimen. The response is determined based on endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) staging pre-treatment and post-treatment, CT scans pre- and post- operatively, and initial clinical stage (based on these tests) compared with the pathologic stage. Any "down-staging" of T or N stage is considered to be a result of induction therapy and counted as a clinical response.

    4 months from the beginning of the induction regimen

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Rate of Clearance of Nodal Involvement Among Patients Who Have Received the Induction Therapy

    4 months from the beginning of the induction treatment

  • Rate of Potentially Curative Surgery

    4 months from the beginning of the induction treatment

  • Rate of "Down-staging" From Pre-operative Clinical Staging

    4 months from the beginning of the induction treatment

  • Safety of the Induction Regimen

    4 months from the beginning of the induction

  • Median Overall Survival (Induction Treatment and Curative Surgery)

    up to 5 years

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Induction/ surgery/ chemoRT

EXPERIMENTAL

1. Induction treatment (3 weeks/cycle x 4 cycles): Cisplatin and Irinotecan on days 1 and 8; Cetuximab on days 1, 8, and 15. 2. Surgery (starts 3-4 weeks after induction treatment). 3. Chemoradiation treatment (starts 4-6 weeks after surgery): weeks 1-19: Cetuximab on day 1 of every week; week 1: 5-FU and Leucovorin (LV) x 5 days; weeks 2-4: recovery; weeks 5-9: radiation, 150 cGy x 5 fractions/week x 5 weeks; week 5: 5-FU+ LV on days 1-4; week 9: 5-FU+ LV on days 1-3; weeks 14 and 19: 5-FU+LV x 5days

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients must have signed an approved informed consent.
  • must have histologically documented untreated gastric/GEJ carcinoma (clinical stage T3 N0 or T4, or any T with N1-N3 M0)
  • Patients with tumor tissue available for assessment of EGF receptor status by immuno-histochemistry (IHC).
  • Patients with Performance Status 0-2.
  • Patients, 18 years and older, must either be not of child bearing potential or have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days of treatment. Patients are considered not of child bearing potential if they are surgically sterile (they have undergone a hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral oophorectomy) or they are postmenopausal.
  • Bone marrow function: absolute neutrophil count (ANC) at least 1,500/ul; platelets at least 100,000/ul.
  • Renal function: creatinine not greater than 1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN).
  • The PT and PTT should be within the range of normal values
  • Hepatic function: bilirubin not greater than 1.5 x ULN; aspartate aminotransferase (AST) not greater than 2.5 x ULN.

You may not qualify if:

  • Acute hepatitis or known HIV.
  • Active or uncontrolled infection.
  • Significant history of uncontrolled cardiac disease; i.e., uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina, and congestive heart failure.
  • Prior therapy that affects or targets the EGF pathway.
  • Prior allergic reaction to chimerized or murine monoclonal antibody therapy or documented presence of human anti-mouse antibodies (HAMA).
  • Any concurrent chemotherapy not indicated in the study protocol or any other investigational agent(s).
