Keywords
nimotuzumab, gastric adenocarcinoma, Cisplatin, S-1, epidermal growth factor receptor
Brief summary
In this open-label, single-center, small sample size, randomised, parallel-group, controlled study, the investigators aim to assess efficacy and safety of addition of nimotuzumab to CS chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated advanced gastric adenocarcinoma. Sixty-two patients are required and randomly assigned (1:1) to each group. The control regimen (CS chemotherapy) is recommended as the standard first-line regimen for advanced adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction in japan.
Interventions
nimotuzumab 200mg infusion on day 1,8,15 every 3 weeks
cisplatin: 30 mg/m2 iv. infusion on day 1, 2 every 3 weeks
S-1: 40 mg/m2 bid , 2 weeks on, 1 week off ;
