The definition of effective contraception will be based on the clinical judgment of the principal investigator or a designated associate.\\]\n12. Evidence of infection (\\> grade 2 )\n13. History of HIV infection or chronic / active hepatitis B or C\n14. Evidence of brain metastasis.

History of organ allograft\n17. Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs, study drug classes or excipients in the formulation given during the course of this trial\n18. Any condition that is unstable or could jeopardize the safety of the patient and his / her compliance in the study\n19. Inability to swallow or retain oral medications\n20. Any malabsorption condition that the investigator deems would jeopardize the absorption or pharmacokinetics of the study medication\n21. Uncorrected dehydration\n22. Known dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency\n23. Substance abuse, medical, psychological or social conditions that may interfere with the patient's participation in the study or evaluation of the study results\n24. Evidence of thrombotic or embolic disease, including cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attacks, or pulmonary embolus within the past 6 months\n25. Any tumor with characteristics that the investigator deems unsuitable for potentially cytoreductive therapy due to likelihood of severe bleeding or perforation such as ulcerations or hemorrhage. Excluded therapies and medications\n26. Prior or concomitant systemic anticancer therapy including cytotoxic therapy, targeted agents, or experimental therapy for gastric cancer. However, (neo)-adjuvant cytotoxic therapy is permitted if the last dose was administered \\> 6 months (12 months for platinum based therapy) before start of study medication in this study.\n27. Radiotherapy prior to or during the study (palliative radiotherapy will be allowed as described in the 'prior and concomitant therapy section',4.3.7)\n28. Use of biologic response modifiers, such as granulocyte G-CSF, within 3 weeks of study entry and during the study.\n29. Investigational drug therapy outside of this trial during or within 4 weeks prior to randomization\n30. Previous exposure to a Ras pathway inhibitor such MEK or Raf inhibitors or any farnesyl transferase inhibitors\n31. Therapeutic anticoagulation with vitamin K antagonists such as warfarin, or with heparins or heparinoids\n\n * Low dose warfarin (1 mg p.o. q.d.) is permitted if the international normalized ratio is \\< 1.5\n * Low-dose aspirin is permitted (≤ 100 mg daily)\n * Prophylactic doses of heparin are permitted\n * For patients on warfarin, the INR will be measured prior to initiation of sorafenib, and patients will be monitored regularly for changes in prothrombin time, INR or clinical bleeding episodes as infrequent bleeding or elevations in the INR have been reported in some patients taking warfarin while on sorafenib therapy."}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01187212', 'briefTitle': 'Sorafenib Trial in Advanced and/or Recurrent Gastric Adenocarcinoma: Treatment Evaluation: STARGATE', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Asan Medical Center'}, 'officialTitle': 'A Randomized Phase II Study of Capecitabine and Cisplatin (XP) +/- Sorafenib (Nexavar®) in Patients With Advanced Gastric Cancer', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'AMC1002'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Capecitabine/Cisplatin', 'description': 'Capecitabine 1000 milligram (mg) / m² po bid (D1-14) Cisplatin 80 mg / m² IV Day (D) 1', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Capecitabine/Cisplatin']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Capecitabine/Cisplatin + Sorafenib', 'description': 'Capecitabine 800 mg / m² po bid (D1-14) Cisplatin 60 mg / m² IV Day 1 Sorafenib 400 mg p.o. bid continuous dosing', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Capecitabine/Cisplatin + Sorafenib']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Capecitabine/Cisplatin + Sorafenib', 'type': 'DRUG', 'otherNames': ['Xeloda', 'Nexavar'], 'description': 'Capecitabine 800 mg / m² po bid (D1-14) Cisplatin 60 mg / m² IV Day 1 Sorafenib 400 mg p.o. bid continuous dosing', 'armGroupLabels': ['Capecitabine/Cisplatin + Sorafenib']}, {'name': 'Capecitabine/Cisplatin', 'type': 'DRUG', 'otherNames': ['Xeloda'], 'description': 'Capecitabine 1000 milligram (mg) / m² po bid (D1-14) Cisplatin 80 mg / m² IV Day 1', 'armGroupLabels': ['Capecitabine/Cisplatin']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '138-736', 'city': 'Seoul', 'country': 'South Korea', 'facility': 'Asan Medical Center', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 37.566, 'lon': 126.9784}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Kang Yoon-Koo, MD, PhD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Asan Medical Center'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Asan Medical Center', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Bayer', 'class': 'INDUSTRY'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Professor', 'investigatorFullName': 'Yoon-Koo Kang', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Asan Medical Center'}}}}
