Brief Summary

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

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.

Study Groups

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

Experimental: Apatinib plus POF

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

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Apatinib

Intervention Type DRUG

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

POF

Intervention Type DRUG

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.
