Brief Summary
The primary objective is to evaluate six months survival rate and quality of life at 4 months of ramucirumab alone or in combination with paclitaxel in patients aged 70 years or more who have stomach or GEJ adenocarcinoma and whose first line of fluoropyrimidine- and platinumcontaining treatment has failed. The co-primary endpoints are the following:
- Six months survival rate
- Quality of life at 4 months as assessed by the following three target dimensions of the EORTC QLQ-ELD14 questionnaire: mobility, illness burden and worries about the future

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Patient survival rate at 6 months
Rate of patients alive
at 6 months
Quality of life at 4 months as assessed by the following dimension of the EORTC QLQ-ELD14 questionnaire: mobility
Derived from items 31,33 and 34of the ELD14 questionnaire. The score is from 0 to 100. The endpoint is defined as the difference of at least 10 points (clinical significance) between baseline score and 4-months score.
at 4 months
Quality of life at 4 months as assessed by the following dimension of the EORTC QLQ-ELD14 questionnaire: worries about the future
Derived from items 31,33 and 34of the ELD14 questionnaire. The score is from 0 to 100. The endpoint is defined as the difference of at least 10 points (clinical significance) between baseline score and 4-months score.
at 4 months
Quality of life at 4 months as assessed by the following dimension of the EORTC QLQ-ELD14 questionnaire: illness burden
Derived from items 43 and 44of the ELD14 questionnaire. The score is from 0 to 100. The endpoint is defined as the difference of at least 10 points (clinical significance) between baseline score and 4-months score
