Neoadjuvant Nab-Paclitaxel Plus Oxaliplatin, S-1, and Sintilimab in Early-Onset Resectable Gastric Cancer

Официальное название

Efficacy and Safety of Neoadjuvant Nab-Paclitaxel Combined With Oxaliplatin, S-1, and Sintilimab in Patients With Locally Advanced Resectable Early-onset Gastric Cancer: A Phase II, Single-Arm, Open-Label Clinical Trial

Обзор

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a preoperative treatment (called neoadjuvant therapy) combining four drugs-nab-paclitaxel, oxaliplatin, S-1, and sintilimab-for patients with locally advanced, resectable early-onset gastric cancer (diagnosed at age 45 or younger). All participants will receive this drug combination before undergoing surgery to remove the tumor. The goal is to shrink the tumor, increase the chance of complete surgical removal, and improve long-term outcomes. This is a single-arm, open-label, phase II clinical trial, meaning all participants will receive the same treatment, and both doctors and patients will know what drugs are being used. The study is being conducted at Peking University People's Hospital.

Вмешательства

• Препарат nab-paclitaxel
  Nab-paclitaxel is administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion at a dose of 125 mg/m² on day 1 of each 3-week cycle, for a total of 3 cycles in the neoadjuvant (preoperative) setting.
• Препарат oxaliplatin
  Oxaliplatin is administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion at a dose of 85 mg/m² on day 1 of each 3-week cycle, for a total of 3 cycles in the neoadjuvant (preoperative) setting.
• Препарат S-1
  S-1 is administered orally twice daily (BID) on days 2 to 15 of each 3-week cycle, for a total of 3 cycles. The dose is based on body surface area (BSA) as follows: BSA \< 1.25 m²: 40 mg BID (total 80 mg/day); BSA 1.25-1.5 m²: 50 mg BID (total 100 mg/day); BSA \> 1.5 m²: 60 mg BID (total 120 mg/day)
• Препарат sintilimab
  Sintilimab is administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion at a fixed dose of 200 mg on day 1 of each 3-week cycle, for a total of 3 cycles in the neoadjuvant (preoperative) setting.
• Процедура D2 Gastrectomy
  Curative-intent D2 radical gastrectomy is performed 3 to 6 weeks after completion of neoadjuvant therapy. The procedure includes either proximal, distal or total gastrectomy depending on tumor location, with en bloc resection of the stomach and systematic D2 lymphadenectomy according to Japanese Gastric Cancer Association (JGCA) guidelines. D2 lymph node dissection involves removal of both perigastric (N1) and second-tier (N2) lymph nodes.
