Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this phase I/II trial, we will evaluate a novel combination of chemotherapy, used concurrently with radiation therapy, in the preoperative therapy of locoregional carcinoma of the esophagus and gastroesophageal junction. In the brief phase I portion of this trial, we will determine whether 2 drugs (docetaxel/oxaliplatin) or 3 drugs (docetaxel/oxaliplatin/capecitabine) can be used concurrently with radiation therapy. If the 3-drug regimen is tolerated, the phase II portion will proceed with this regimen. If the 3-drug combination is considered too toxic, the phase II study will proceed with docetaxel/oxaliplatin in combination with radiation therapy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Upon determination of eligibility, patients will be receive:

Oxaliplatin + Docetaxel + Capecitabine + Radiation therapy

If the three-drug chemotherapy regimen, with radiation therapy, is tolerable, this regimen will be taken forward into the phase II portion of the trial. If the three-drug regimen is too toxic, the phase II portion will proceed with the two-drug regimen Oxaliplatin + Docetaxel + Radiation therapy

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Cohort 1

Oxaliplatin 40 mg/m2 intravenously (IV) over 2 hours and docetaxel 20 mg/m2 IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29. Radiation therapy began concurrently with day 1 of chemotherapy at a dose of 1.8 Gy/d Monday through Friday to a total of 45 Gy (25 fractions).

Patients were to have esophageal resection after completion of preoperative therapy during weeks 9 to 12 and after all treatment-related side effects were resolved.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Oxaliplatin

Intervention Type DRUG

40 mg/m2 IV over 2 hours on days 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29 in both treatment cohorts

Docetaxel

Intervention Type DRUG

20 mg/m2 IV over 30 minutes was administered on days 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29 in both cohorts

Radiation therapy

Intervention Type RADIATION

In both cohorts, radiation therapy began concurrently with day 1 of chemotherapy at a dose of 1.8 Gy/d Monday through Friday to a total of 45 Gy (25 fractions).

Cohort 2

Oxaliplatin 40 mg/m2 intravenously (IV) over 2 hours and docetaxel 20 mg/m2 IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29. Capecitabine was administered 1000 mg/m2 orally twice daily on days 1 to 7, 15 to 21, and 29 to 35. Radiation therapy began concurrently with day 1 of chemotherapy at a dose of 1.8 Gy/d Monday through Friday to a total of 45 Gy (25 fractions).
