Brief Summary

In previous studies, we found that POF (A combination of oxaliplatin, fluorouracil and Paclitaxel) regimen appears to be of good efficacy and is well tolerated in patients with advanced gastric cancer. Apatinib is an orally antiangiogenic agent. It was approved and launched in China in 2014 as a 3rd-line treatment for patients with advanced gastric cancer. Therefore, investigators conducted the dose escalation phase I study to explore the safety of combination of apatinib and POF as first-line treatment for advanced gastric cancer. Now we are going to start a phase 2 trial with apatinib 500mg + POF as first-line therapy to investigate the efficacy and safety in the patients with advanced gastric cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Objective response rate

    According to RECIST 1.1

    From enrollment to 3 months after treatment

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Progression-free survival

    From enrollment to progression of disease. Estimated about 12 months.

  • Overall survival

    From enrollment to death of patients. Estimated about 18 months

    From enrollment to 3 months after treatment

Study Arms (1)

Experimental: Apatinib plus POF

EXPERIMENTAL

Apatinib (500 mg qd p.o.) plus POF until disease progression or intolerable toxicity or refused by the patients.

Drug: ApatinibDrug: POF

Interventions

Apatinib (500 mg qd p.o.) until disease progression or intolerable toxicity or refused by the patients.

Experimental: Apatinib plus POF
POFDRUG

The POF regimen consisted of a 3-hour infusion of paclitaxel (135 mg/m2) followed by oxaliplatin (85 mg/m2) and Calcium Levofolinate (200 mg/m2).Subsequently, a 46-hour infusion of fluorouracil (2400 mg/m2) was administered using an ambulatory pump, repeating the cycle every 14 days.

Experimental: Apatinib plus POF

  • Female subjects of child-bearing potential must agree to use contraceptive measures starting 1 week before the administration of the first dose of apatinib until 8 weeks after discontinuing study drug. Male subjects must agree to use contraceptive measures during the study and 8 weeks after last dose of study drug With written informed consent signed voluntarily by patients themselves or their supervisors witted by doctors.
  • With good compliance and agree to accept follow-up of disease progression and adverse events.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with a history of another neoplastic disease within the past three years, excluding basal cell carcinoma of the skin, cervical carcinoma in situ, or nonmetastatic prostate cancer.
  • Patients with brain or central nervous system metastases, including leptomeningeal disease.
  • Pregnant (positive pregnancy test) or breast feeding. Serious, non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture.
