cabazitaxel ...Study Participants
65Single-arm study to determine disease control rate in second- (or later) line treatment with cabazitaxel after the failure of palliative primary treatment.
65 patients with advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the oesophagogastric junction and stomach will be treated with 20mg/m2 Cabazitaxel for a maximum of 6 cycles. Main objective of the study is the Disease Control Rate (DCR) with Cabazitaxel.
20 mg/m2 over 1 hour i.v., repeated on day 22 for maximum 6 cycles.
Inclusion Criteria: Histologically confirmed inoperable and/or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the oesophagogastric junction or stomach Progression of a measurable lesion (RECIST) on previous palliative chemotherapy. Neoadjuvant/adjuvant treatment is not counted, unless progression occurs < 6 months after completion of the treatment. In these cases, neoadjuvant/adjuvant treatment is counted as one line.
