13 Adjuvant Chemoradiotherapy in Stomach Tumors

14 7 years of follow-up, Adjuvant Chemoradiotherapy in Stomach Tumors DFS remained similar between treatment arms OS also was similar The effect of the addition of radiotherapy on DFS and OS differed by Lauren classification lymph node ratio Subgroup analyses : significantly improved DFS in node-positive and intestinal-type GC the ARTIST 2 trial evaluating adjuvant chemotherapy and chemoradiotherapy in patients with node-positive, D2-resected GC

55 Methods Eligible patients : HER-2 positive (IHC 3+ or IHC 2+ and DDISH HER-2:CEP17 ratio 2) operable, gastric/ogj/lower oesophageal adenocarcinoma random 1:1 ECX, 3 pre- and 3 post-operative cycles vs. ECX plus lapatinib d1-21 in each cycle and for 6 maintenance doses pre-operative toxicity was then reviewed according to pre-defined criteria to determine doses for subsequent patients The primary objective is to establish a recommended dosing regimen for a phase III trial Results 46 pts were randomised 44 (24 ECX, 20 ECX + L) included in the analysis Conclusions Administration of lapatinib at 1250mg/day in combination with ECX chemotherapy was feasible with some increase in toxicity which did not compromise operative management.
