Brief Summary: To assess the radiological response curative resection rate of preoperative docetaxelcisplatincapecitabineDCX
To correlate treatment response with serum RUNX3 promoter hypermethylation
To determine the toxicities of preoperative DCX
To determine the time to progressionoverall survival of preoperative DCX
Detailed Description: Background

Pre-operative chemotherapy down size and down stage tumours prior to surgery and improves treatment outcome However current chemotherapy regime requires long terrn venous access for protracted chemotherapy infusion Despite encouraging response rate there are still a substantial number who did not achieve curative resection after pre-operative chemotherapy Hence there is a need to develop 1 a more convenient and effective regimen and 2 a surrogate for treatment response so that the non-responder can be identified early

Specific aims

To assess the radiological response curative resection rate of preoperative docetaxelcisplatin and capecitabine in patients with Stage II III gastric or lower oesophageal adenocarcinoma and to correlate treatment response with serum RUNX3 methylation status

Hypotheses

We hypothesize that the proposed preoperative regimen is effective in gastric cancer and can be safely delivered In addition RUNX3 promoter hypermethylation status can be a surrogate for treatment response

Methodology

This is a phase II study design to assess the response and tolerability of preoperative docetaxel cisplatin and capecitabine in patients with operable gastric cancer Simons two-stage design is used to calculate the sample size for this Phase II trial using two levels of response rate P0 20 and P1 50 Accordingly 20 patients is required for this study 8 patients will be accrued for the first stage followed by 12 more patients when three or more responses are observed during the first stage The alpha level of the design is 004 and power is 086 Serum measurement of tumours RUNX3 promoter hypermethylation will be performed prior to each treatment cycle to evaluate its role as a biomarker for treatment response
