Title: A Phase II Study of FOLFOX Combined With Nab-Paclitaxel (FOLFOX-A) in the Treatment of Metastatic or Advanced Unresectable Gastric, Gastro-Esophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma. Big Ten Cancer Research Consortium: BTCRC-GI15-0151
Principal Investigators: Al Benson, MD, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine
Description: For this open-label, phase 2 study, researchers are evaluating the safety and efficacy of FOLFOX plus nab-paclitaxel (FOLFOX-A) as a first-line therapy for patients with histologically confirmed advanced gastric cancer or adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction.

Patients with stage I and II disease will receive FOLFOX-A every 2 weeks for each 4 week cycle. Intravenous (IV) nab-paclitaxel will be administered over 30 minutes, followed by IV oxaliplatin and IV leucovorin over 2 hours, as well as IV 5-FU as continuous infusion over Days 1 and 2.
The primary outcome measure is the 2-year overall objective response rate. Secondary outcome measures include overall survival, progression-free survival, time to progression, best overall response rate, best disease control rate, and adverse events. All outcomes will be evaluated over 5 years.
The estimated enrollment is 39 patients.
