e16034 Background: Apatinib, a small molecule multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor with high selectivity for VEGFR-2, has been approved for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer or gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma in China by significantly improving progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Here, we report safety and efficacy data from an open-label, single-arm, multicenter, phase IV trial of apatinib as a third-line or later line treatment for advanced gastric cancer. Methods: Eligible patients had histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced gastric cancer or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma; and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0–2; and adequate haematological and hepatic function; and failure of at least two lines of chemotherapy. Patients received oral apatinib until disease progression, death or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was safety, and secondary endpoints included PFS and OS. Results: The intention-to-treat population (ITT) included 2004 patients. At baseline, the median age was 59 (range, 19-85) years, ECOG performance status of 0/1/2 (%) was 15.4/68.8/15.1, and stage III/IV was 3.5/96.4; 98.8% had metastases, and among which metastatic foci≤2/ > 2 was 64.5/34.2 (%), respectively. 89.6% of the patients were given apatinib 500mg as the initial does and the median treatment duration was 56 days. After a median follow-up of 126.5 days, adverse events (AEs) occurred in 95.1% of the patients and 70.3% were grade ≥3. 87.9% of the patients experienced treatment-related AEs (TRAEs), of which 51% had grade ≥3, 12.3% and 16.8% reduced dose and discontinued the treatment, respectively. 57 (2.9%) TRAEs-related deaths were reported, mainly because of gastrointestinal bleeding (16 cases), upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage (7), cerebral haemorrhage (2), and gastric perforation (1). The incidence of TRAEs of special interest was 74.3%; 38.1% of patients developed grade≥3, mainly including hypertension (26.3%), bleeding (5.1%), proteinuria (4.5%), and hand-foot syndrome (3.1%). In an ITT population, median PFS was 2.7 months (95%CI 2.23-2.79) and median OS was 5.8 months (95% CI 5.42-6.11). Conclusions: This study confirms that apatinib has a well-established and manageable safety profile and survival benefit as third or later line therapy for patients with advanced gastric cancer or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Clinical trial information: NCT02426034.

e16017 Camrelizumab combined with SOX regimen in the first-line treatment of unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer£ºA single-arm, prospective, open clinical study. Background: Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors of the digestive system. In China, 80% of patients with gastric cancer are already in advanced or locally advanced stage at the time of detection. Even after receiving radical gastrectomy, more than half of patients will have local recurrence or distant metastasis, and the 5-year survival rate of patients with gastric cancer with metastasis is less than 10%.In recent years, more and more evidence supports the application of immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced gastric cancer.In 2020, PD-1 was approved for advanced gastric cancer receiving second-line or above treatment in China, which is an affirming of the efficacy of PD-1 in the clinical treatment of gastric cancer. Immunotherapy combined with conventional chemotherapy, this study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of PD1 combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of first-line gastric cancer. Methods: This was a single center, prospective clinical study conducted at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University, Jiangsu Province.Patients with newly treated unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma were enrolled.All enrolled subjects were treated with camrelizumab combined with SOX regimen every 3 weeks.The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS).Secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and safety.This study was registered at Chictr.org.cn with the number Chictr2000029691. Results: The study plans to enroll 30 patients, and 16 patients have been included in the study from March 2020 to December 2020. Among them, 7 patients can be evaluated, 14 males, 2 females, ECOG score 0 or 1. Of the 7 patients who can be evaluated for efficacy, 1 achieved PR and 5 achieved SD, ORR was 14.29%, and DCR was 85.71 %. This is the early stage of data analysis, PFS has not yet reached, and the side effects are mild, mainly with grade 1 adverse reactions. The most common AEs are neutropenia (3/7) and decreased appetite (2/7). There were no treatment-related deaths. Conclusions: This study provides preliminary evidence for the first-line treatment of unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma with camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy. The current number of enrolled cases is small, but the preliminary effect of immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy in first-line patients with advanced gastric cancer can still be seen. This trial will further explore the clinical efficacy and safety of immunotherapy in the first-line gastric cancer. Clinical trial information: ChiCTR2000029691.

Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma

Treatment options for patients with HER2-positive advanced gastric cancer are limited, and the prognosis for these patients is poor. Pembrolizumab has demonstrated promising antitumor activity in patients with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma as monotherapy, in combination with chemotherapy and in combination with trastuzumab. Combining pembrolizumab with trastuzumab and chemotherapy may therefore provide a benefit for patients with advanced HER2-positive gastric cancer. Here we aimed to describe the design of and rationale for the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III KEYNOTE-811 study, which will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab or placebo in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy as first-line treatment for patients with advanced HER2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Clinical trial registration: NCT03615326 ( ClinicalTrials.gov )

Purpose S-1 plus cisplatin is considered highly active in Japanese gastric cancer patients. We conducted a phase II multi-institutional trial, in the West, in patients with untreated advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma to evaluate activity and safety of this combination. Methods Patients received cisplatin intravenously at 75 mg/m2 on day 1 and S-1 orally at 25 mg/m2/dose bid (50 mg/m2/d) on days 1 to 21, repeated every 28 days. Patients with histologic proof of gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma with a Karnofsky performance status (KPS) of ≥ 70% and near-normal organ function were eligible. All patients provided a written informed consent. To observe a 45% confirmed overall response rate (ORR), 41 assessable patients were needed. Results All 47 patients were assessed for safety and survival, and 41 patients were assessed for ORR. The median age was 56 years and median KPS was 80%. The median number of chemotherapy cycles was four. The confirmed ORR was 51% (95% CI, 35% to 67%) and it was 49% by an independent review. At the 6-month interval, 71% of patients were alive, with a median survival time of 10.9 months. Frequent grade 3 or 4 toxicities included fatigue (26%), neutropenia (26%), vomiting (17%), diarrhea (15%), and nausea (15%); however, stomatitis (2%) and febrile neutropenia (2%) were uncommon. There was one (2%) treatment-related death. Conclusion S-1 plus cisplatin is active against gastric cancer and has a favorable toxicity profile. A global phase III study of S-1 plus cisplatin versus fluorouracil plus cisplatin currently is accruing patients.
