Brief summary

This study is a randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FMT capsules combined with chemotherapy and anti-PD1/PDL1 therapy in the advanced gastric cancer.

Interventions

FMT Capsules in Combination with Chemotherapy and Anti-PD1/PD-L1 Therapy

PROCEDUREPlacebo

At least one measurable extracranial target lesion according to iRECIST. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1. Life expectancy ≥3 months.

Exclusion criteria

Presence of absolute contra-indications to FMT administration:Toxic megacolon;Inflammatory bowel disease;Anatomic contra-indications to colonoscopy;Colectomy Patient is currently participating and receiving other study therapy or has participated in a study of an investigational agent and received study therapy or used an investigational device within 4 weeks of this study intervention. Currently under any form of systemic antibiotics. Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving systemic steroid therapy (\> 10 mg prednisone daily or equivalent) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy two weeks prior to trial treatment. Patients receiving systemic steroids at physiologic doses are permitted to enroll assuming steroid dose is not above the acceptable threshold (\> 10 mg prednisone daily or equivalent).

The eligibility can be granted by the treating investigator on individual bases. Has HIV infection or AIDS-related illness. Has active infection of HAV, HBV or HCV. Patients with a history of Hepatitis B/C infection who have received anti-viral therapy and are disease free may be considered for enrollment after discussion with Principal Investigator. Patient has received a live vaccine within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of treatment. Seasonal influenza vaccines or COVID-19 vaccines for injection are generally inactivated virus vaccines and are allowed.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Rate of Disease Controlup to 6 monthsRate of Disease Control is defined as the percentage of subjects who had a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD), as defined by ir-RECIST v1.1.
Objective response rate (ORR)up to 6 monthsORR is defined as the percentage of subjects who had a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as defined by ir-RECIST v1.1, and is based on the best response obtained.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Overall Survival (OS)up to 2 yearsThe length of time (in days) from study intervention that participants remain alive.
Incidence of Adverse Events Related to Treatmentup to 6 monthsAll adverse events and their relationships to study drugs and procedures will be recorded,to assess overall safety, feasibility and tolerability of treatment.
Progression-free Survival (PFS)up to 2 yearsThe median length of time from initiation of study drug(s) disease progression as defined by RECIST v1.1, or death. Progressive Disease (PD): ≥20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥5 mm. The appearance ≥1 new lesion(s) is considered progression.
Change in the intestinal microbiome communityup to 6 monthsMean change from baseline of bacterial species compared with 6 months post fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT).
Quality of life based on the questionnaireup to 2 yearsThe EORTC QLQ-STO22/EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire will be used to assess the quality of life of the participants.
Change in the immunityup to 6 monthsMean change from baseline of immune cells compared with 6 months post fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT).

Other

MeasureTime frameDescription
Marker of nutritional statusup to 2 yearsHemoglobin is a measure of the nutritional status and are seen as markers for the catabolic state of cachectic cancer patients.
Body Weightup to 2 yearsBody Weight Change. (kilograms)
Appetiteup to 2 yearsAppetite measured by FAACT
