A Phase II Study of sFOLFOXIRI in Advanced Gastroesophageal Cancer (SAGE).
Hypothesis: We hypothesize that the use of sFOLFOXIRI in gastroesophageal cancer (GEC) will increase response rates beyond that expected with FOLFOX while maintaining acceptable tolerability.
Primary Objective:
- To determine the clinical efficacy of treatment regime in terms of objective response rate (ORR).
Secondary Objectives:
- To determine the clinical efficacy of the study treatment in terms of progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
- To characterize the safety and toxicity profile of the study treatment as measured by the adverse event rates.
