Summary

This is a single arm phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy and tolerability of intraperitoneal paclitaxel with oxaliplatin and capecitabine in advanced gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis and/or cancer cells on peritoneal cytology. Twenty patients will be recruited into the study for an estimated period of two years. Paclitaxel will be administered intraperitoneally at 40mg/m2 on Day 1 and 8 in patients receiving standard intravenous oxaliplatin 130mg/m2 on Day 1 and capecitabine 1000mg/m2 on day 1-14. The study hypothesizes that the addition of intraperitoneal paclitaxel with chemotherapy will improve treatment efficacy.

IP Paclitaxel

Each treatment cycle will consist of 21 days, with 14 days on treatment and 7 days off-treatment. Oxaliplatin will be administered intravenously (on Day 1 of each cycle). Paclitaxel will be administered intra-abdominally on Day 1 and Day 8 of each cycle. In particular, a needle will be inserted into the intraperitoneal injection port for normal saline to be injected intra-abdominally over one hour, followed by paclitaxel chemotherapy over a further one hour. Capecitabine will be taken by mouth from Day 1 to 14 of each cycle.
