The Study of Irinotecan Plus Epirubicin as the Second-line Chemoregime for Advanced Gastric Cancer (SIEG)

October 14, 2013 updated by: Pan Yueyin, Anhui Medical University
This study is to determine the response rate and safety profile of irinotecan plus epirubicin as the second-line chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer and fully evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of the regime.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The main purposes: to determine the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of gastric cancer patients given irinotecan + epirubicin as second-line treatment, who are at Stage IV with disease progressed or recurred after first-line chemotherapy failed, ,

The Secondary purposes: to determine disease control rate (Disease Control Rate, DCR), the objective response rate (Object Response rate, ORR) and the Quality of life (Quality Of Life, QOL)
