Docetaxel, Oxaliplatin and S-1 (DOS) for Advanced Gastric Cancer

September 20, 2012 updated by: Hallym University Medical Center

A Phase II Study of Docetaxel, Oxaliplatin and S-1 (DOS) in Patients With Advanced Gastric Cancer

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of combination of docetaxel, oxaliplatin, and S-1 (DOS) in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer.

Detailed Description

Docetaxel is an anti-microtubule agent. Docetaxel is an active agent for gastric cancer, with response rate (RR) of 20-24% as a single agent and RR of 37-40% as a combination therapy with 5-FU and/or cisplatin.

S-1 is a new oral dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) inhibitory fluoropyrimidine (DIF). In two late phase II studies of S-1 for advanced gastric cancer, RR was 45%, with very low (2%) incidence of grade 3 toxicity.

Recent phase I/II trial of the combination of docetaxel and S-1 in patients with advanced gastric cancer suggests that repeated 3-4 week cycles of S-1 60-80mg/m2 /day for 14 days combined with docetaxel 40-75mg/m2 is feasible.

Oxaliplatin, diaminocyclohexane-platinum, is an alkylating agent inhibiting DNA replication. Comparing to cisplatin or carboplatin, oxaliplatin appear to be more effective and has a more favorable toxicity profile. Phase II studies of the combination of docetaxel and oxaliplatin in patients with advanced gastric cancer suggests that docetaxel 60 or 75mg/m2 combined with oxaliplatin 130 or 80mg/m2 every 3 weeks is feasible.

Recent dose finding study of the combination of docetaxel, oxaliplatin and S-1 (DOS) in patients with advanced gastric cancer suggests that docetaxel 52.5mg/m2 on day 1 and oxaliplatin 105mg/m2 on day 1 combined with S-1 80mg/m2 on day1 to day 14 every 3 weeks is feasible.

Docetaxel, S-1 and oxaliplatin have distinct mechanisms of action and no overlapped key toxicities. Furthermore, fluoropyrimidine and docetaxel or oxaliplatin have shown synergism in vivo studies and in clinical trials. Based on these results, the combination of DOS is a reasonable candidate of new chemotherapeutic regimen for the advanced gastric cancer.
