Second-Line Irinotecan vs. ILF for AGC
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Gachon University Gil Medical Center, July 2007
Sponsored by: Gachon University Gil Medical Center
Information provided by: Gachon University Gil Medical Center
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00509964
  Purpose

Patients with recurrent or metastatic gastric cancer can benefit from palliative chemotherapy. However, over half of patients with metastatic gastric cancer who received chemotherapy failed to achieve response and even in these responders, the duration of responses was as short as a few months. Patients with metastatic gastric cancer who fail to respond or have relapse after first line chemotherapy have a grim prognosis and a standard salvage treatment is not available.

We designed this phase II trial to determine the efficacy and safety of irinotecan monotherapy or combination (ILF) as second-line therapy for advanced gastric cancer.
