Establishment of Serum Proteomics Subtypes of Gastric Cancer and Its Clinical

This study is a prospective, single-center, observational study aimed at detecting the status of serum protein profiles at key time points in gastric cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy for advanced disease, and constructing a serum protein model for evaluating the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy for gastric cancer. Subjects will receive neoadjuvant therapy (treatment regimen determined by the primary physician, limited to systemic therapy, with options including immune checkpoint inhibitor-based regimens and non-immune checkpoint inhibitor-based regimens). After four cycles of treatment, the efficacy will be assessed. Patients eligible for R0 resection will undergo D2 radical surgery regardless of tumor regression, while those ineligible for R0 resection will enter the palliative treatment phase (Note: Subjects are all patients who require neoadjuvant therapy even if they do not participate in this clinical study). Patients will receive regular follow-up evaluations for metastasis/recurrence and survival until tumor recurrence/progression or the last known date of patient survival (Note: Regular follow-up in this study follows the frequency of routine clinical follow-ups). The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS), and the secondary endpoint is pathological response rate (based on Becker tumor regression grading, with residual tumor less than 50% considered effective preoperative treatment).

Peripheral venous blood samples will be collected before the start of neoadjuvant therapy (blood sampling point 1 - baseline) and before surgery after neoadjuvant therapy (blood sampling point 2 - post-treatment). Approximately 3 ml of blood will be collected each time, and about 1.5 ml of serum will be obtained after processing. Serum protein profiling will be conducted to assess the expression of protein profiles at these treatment time points.

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

Study Population

Patients enrolled in this study are gastric cancer patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Male or female, aged 18 and ≤ 75 years old.
  2. KPS score ≥ 80 points within 7 days prior to enrollment.
  3. Histologically confirmed gastric adenocarcinoma at initial diagnosis.
  4. Tumor located in the proximal stomach, including the gastroesophageal junction (defined as within 5cm proximal and distal to the cardia), gastric fundus, and upper body of the stomach.
  5. Clinical staging based on endoscopic ultrasound or enhanced CT/MRI examination, staged as cT3~4aN+M0 (according to the 8th edition of AJCC TNM).
  6. Presence of at least one evaluable lesion according to RECIST 1.1 criteria on abdominal CT/MRI examination.
  7. Surgeon participating in this study determines that curative surgical resection is feasible.
  8. Major organ function is able to tolerate neoadjuvant therapy.
  9. No accompanying diseases that significantly reduce survival expectancy to < 5 years.
  10. Willingness and ability to comply with the study protocol during the study period.
  11. Provide written informed consent prior to entering the study, and the patient understands that they can withdraw from the study at any time without any loss.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with signs of distant metastasis or local unresectable factors.
  2. Patients with imaging or endoscopic ultrasound suggesting T1 or T2 disease.
  3. Patients who have received cytotoxic chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, or curative surgery for gastric cancer, excluding corticosteroids.
  4. Patients who have experienced gastrointestinal bleeding within the two weeks prior to enrollment or are judged by the investigator to be at high risk of bleeding.
  5. Patients with upper gastrointestinal obstruction, physiological dysfunction, or malabsorption syndrome that may affect oral drug absorption.
  6. Patients who have received live vaccines within 4 weeks prior to enrollment. (Note: Seasonal influenza vaccines, which are usually inactivated vaccines, are allowed. Vaccines administered intranasally are live vaccines and are not allowed.)
  7. Patients who have received immunotherapy (such as interleukins, interferons, thymosin, etc.) or any investigational treatment within 28 days prior to enrollment or within 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter, but at least 14 days).
  8. Patients who have undergone major surgery within 28 days prior to enrollment, unless the surgery was minimally invasive (e.g., peripherally inserted central catheter [PICC] via peripheral venous puncture).
  9. Uncontrolled systemic diseases.

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.

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.
