Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?This trial is testing new combinations of drugs to treat advanced stomach cancer that can't be removed by surgery or has spread. Researchers want to see if these drug combinations are effective and safe, and how the body handles them. A group of patients will participate to find the best dose.
Is the drug AZD2936, FOLFOX, MEDI5752, XELOX a promising treatment for stomach cancer?Yes, the drug AZD2936, FOLFOX, MEDI5752, XELOX shows promise for treating stomach cancer. MEDI5752, which targets two immune checkpoints, has shown positive results in early trials. XELOX, a combination of capecitabine and oxaliplatin, has been effective in treating advanced gastric cancer. These treatments are part of ongoing research to improve outcomes for stomach cancer patients.478910
What safety data exists for the treatment options mentioned?The safety data for the treatment options mentioned includes studies on XELOX (capecitabine and oxaliplatin) in advanced gastric cancer. Several studies have evaluated the safety and efficacy of XELOX, either alone or in combination with other drugs like cetuximab. These studies have assessed toxicity, maximum tolerated dose, and overall safety profiles in patients with advanced or recurrent gastric cancer. Comparisons have also been made between XELOX and FOLFOX regimens in terms of safety and efficacy.34567
What data supports the idea that Novel Treatments for Stomach Cancer is an effective treatment?The available research shows that several treatments, like FOLFOX and XELOX, are effective for advanced stomach cancer. For example, a study on FOLFOX-6 showed it works well as a first treatment for advanced or recurring stomach cancer. Another study compared XELOX to FOLFOX and found both to be effective, with XELOX being a good option. Additionally, MEDI5752, which targets specific immune checkpoints, showed promising results in early trials, working well across different types of tumors. These studies suggest that these treatments can be effective options for stomach cancer.124710
Do I have to stop taking my current medications?The trial protocol does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. However, if you are on steroids or other immunosuppressive treatments for autoimmune or inflammatory disorders, you may not be eligible to participate.

Eligibility Criteria

Adults over 18 with a body weight above 35 kg, diagnosed with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma that can't be surgically removed or has spread, and who haven't been treated for it yet. Participants should have a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks and good performance status (able to carry out daily activities). Those with active infections, previous immune-oncology treatments, certain HER2-positive cancers, uncontrolled brain metastases, serious illnesses, another cancer history or uncontrollable ascites are excluded.

Treatment Details

The trial is testing new combinations of drugs including chemotherapy agents like 5-Fluorouracil and Capecitabine as well as novel therapies AZD0901, Rilvegostomig, FOLFOX regimen components and Volrustomig. It aims to evaluate how effective these combinations are in treating the cancer while also monitoring safety profiles and how the body processes the drugs.

Immune Checkpoint Inhibition in Gastro-Oesophageal Cancer. [2019]Recently some progress has been made in the palliative treatment of gastric cancer. It was shown that second-line chemotherapy and VEGF-R2-directed treatment can prolong survival. Despite these advances most patients with metastatic gastric cancer live for less than 2 years. Immune-checkpoint blockade with anti-CTLA4, anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 antibodies has revolutionised the treatment of many cancers. Significant benefit was also proven in gastric adenocarcinomas. Nivolumab improves overall survival as third-line treatment in Asian gastric cancer patients and is already registered in Japan. Pembrolizumab shows significant efficacy, especially in PD-L1-positive patients as third-line treatment and is FDA approved for this indication. Trials with avelumab are promising and studies with atezolizumab and durvalumab are also on the way. To extend the subgroup of benefitting patients combinations of PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies with CTLA4, or VEGF-R2 antibodies or combination with chemotherapy are investigated and show promising results. In this article, the existing evidence of PD1 and PD-L1 blockade as monotherapy or in combination with anti-CTLA4, anti-VEGF-R2 and chemotherapy in gastro-oesophageal adenocarcinoma is reviewed and put into perspective.
