Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 75 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Advanced gastric cancer patients

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

Subjects eligible for enrollment must meet all of the following criteria:

  1. Provide signed informed consent. The subject is capable of understanding and complying with parameters as outlined in the protocol and able to sign informed consent, approved by the Independent Ethic Committee (IEC)/Institutional Review Board (IRB) prior to the initiation of any study-specific procedures
  2. Men or women aged >= 18 years and <=75 years.
  3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG) <= 2.
  4. Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the stomach, gastroesophageal junction.
  5. Metastatic disease or locally advanced disease not amenable to curative surgery.
  6. Radiographically assessable, non-measurable disease or measurable disease as per RECIST criteria.
  7. Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks with tumor and at least 5 years without tumor from the time of enrollment.
  8. No other malignancy within the past 5 years except adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix.
  9. No prior chemotherapy for advanced disease. -

Exclusion Criteria:

Subjects meeting any of the following criteria must not be enrolled in the study:

  1. Gastric carcinoid, sarcomas, or squamous cell cancer.
  2. Pregnant or lactating females.
  3. Significant neurological or psychiatric disorders (psychotic disorders, dementia or seizures) that would prohibit the understanding and giving of informed consent.
  4. Active Hepatitis B or C or history of an HIV infection.
  5. Active uncontrolled infection. -

Study Plan

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.

Design Details

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of circulating tumor cell (CTC)
Time Frame: Up to 2 years from start of study
Number of the circulating tumor cell in peripheral blood from advanced gastric cancer patients undergoing D2 radical resection followed by first-line chemotherapy
Up to 2 years from start of study

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Profile and Portion of circulating tumor cell (CTC)
Time Frame: Up to 2 years from start of study
Profile and Portion of the circulating tumor cell in peripheral blood from advanced gastric cancer patients undergoing D2 radical resection followed by first-line chemotherapy. There are three type of CTCs: epithelial type CTC，mesenchymal type CTC and mixed type CTC. The portion of different type of CTC were calculated, for example: the portion of epithelia type CTC number to total CTCs,etc.
Up to 2 years from start of study
Progression-free survival
Time Frame: Up to 3 years from start of the study
Survival duration since radical resection to clinical finding of relapse disease.
Up to 3 years from start of the study
Overall survival
Time Frame: Up to 5 years from start of the study
Survival duration since radical resection to patient die.
Up to 5 years from start of the study

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Anticipated)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
