Abstract 207TiP
Background
Chemotherapy is the mainstay of treatment in advanced gastroesophageal junction and gastric (GEJ/G) adenocarcinomas, with some additional role for targeted therapy and immunotherapy in select subsets. The choice of optimal chemotherapy in this setting remains undecided, especially with regard to the addition of docetaxel to a FOLFOX/CAPOX (doublet combination) backbone in improving outcomes. Additionally, there is also equipoise with regard to continuing palliative chemotherapy beyond six months in patients with these cancers.
Trial design
The DOC GC study in a multicentric open-label, randomised controlled phase III trial, in adults (age >=18 years) with unresectable/metastatic GEJ/G adenocarcinoma and adequate end-organ function. Patients will undergo randomization to one of two arms: Arm A (Doublet regimen)- modified CAPOX (3 weekly) or modified FOLFOX-7 ( 2 weekly) for a maximum of 6 months and then observation or Arm B (Tripet regimen): modified FLOT (5-FU/leucovorin /Oxaliplatin/Docetaxel) or DOX (docetaxel/oxaliplatin/capecitabine) every 2 weeks for a maximum of four months followed by Docetaxel (60mg/m2) every 3 weeks till disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patients choice The primary endpoint of the study is Overall survival (OS), as calculated by Kaplan-Meier method, while key secondary endpoints include Progression-free survival, adverse event rates, and quality of life. Next-generation sequencing is being conducted on all biopsy specimens and patient data will be classified as per the Asian Cancer Research Group classification of gastric cancers based on sequencing. Assuming the median OS with mFOLFOX/CAPOX is 11 months, the study with a power of 80% with a two-sided alpha of 5% requires 162 patients per arm to show a superiority in terms of OS of 5 months with modified FLOT/DOX by the log-rank test method. A total of 211 events are required in the entire study for this analysis to be feasible with a hazard ratio of 0.68. We have assumed a uniform accrual period of 38 months and further 16 months of follow-up.
