|---|---|
| Main Objective: To assess which preoperative regimen provides superior event free survival 1 year after randomisation in patients with resectable gastric cancer;Secondary Objective: •To assess time to event of all treatment arms •To assess which preoperative regimen provides superior time-to-recurrence (TTR) •To assess which preoperative regimen is most feasible, based on toxicity, pCR and R0 resection rates •To assess the toxicity profile of all treatment arms •To document surgical morbidity, including incidence of anastomotic leakage •To determine the pCR rates of all treatment arms •To determine the R0 resection rates of all treatment arms •To determine the response rate (RR) of all treatment arms •To determine the OS of all treatment arms •To identify which preoperative regimen (CRITICS-II) will be compared with the new standard treatment (CRITICS-I) in a next phase III trial ;Primary end point(s): Event-free survival at 1 year after randomisation (events: local recurrence, regional recurrence, local-regional recurrence or progression, distant recurrence, or death from any cause).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1 year after randomisation | — |
