A Phase 2 Trial of Ixabepilone in Asian Patients with Advanced Gastric Cancer Previously Treated with Fluoropyrimidine-Based Chemotherapy
ABSTRACT Background The highest rates of gastric cancer occur in Eastern Asia. Fluoropyrimidine-based therapy is used initially in unresectable and metastatic disease, following progression, 60–70% of patients in Asian countries subsequently receive second-line chemotherapy. However, there is no standard treatment in this setting.
