Brief Summary

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

This 2 arm study will compare the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with capecitabine and cisplatin versus placebo in combination with capecitabine and cisplatin in participants who have not received prior chemotherapy for advanced or metastatic gastric cancer. Participants will be randomized to one of two treatment groups Bevacizumab + Capecitabine/Cisplatin (experimental arm) or Placebo + Capecitabine/Cisplatin (control arm).
