Baseline assessment included global QL; symptoms; functional scales; comorbidity; frailty. Randomization was 1:1:1 to dose Level A (Ox 130 mg\/m2 d1, Cap 625 mg\/m2 bd d1-21, q21d), B (80% Level A) or C (60% Level A). At 9 weeks, patients were scored for OTU. Non-inferiority (vs A) was assessed using PFS, censored at 12 months, with upper boundary HR 1.34 (based on patients' and clinicians' discussions), needing 284 PFS events per two-way comparison. In a separate sub-study, when there was uncertainty regarding the use of chemotherapy, patients were randomized between level C and supportive care alone (SCA).<br \/>\nResults and Conclusion(s): 512 patients were randomized, 2014-2017, at 61 UK centers. Age, performance status and frailty were similar in all arms. Non-inferiority of PFS is confirmed for Level B vs A (HR 1.09, CI 0.89-1.32) and for Level C vs A (HR 1.10, CI 0.90-1.33). Level C patients had the least toxicity and best OTU outcomes. When analyzed by baseline age, frailty and PS no group was identified who benefit more from higher treatment doses. A further 46 patients were randomized between chemotherapy and SCA. A non-significant trend to improved survival was observed (HR=0.69, CI 0.32-1.48) and QL deteriorated less with chemotherapy. This is the largest RCT specifically investigating frail and\/or elderly aGOAC patients, and should guide future treatment. The lowest dose tested was non-inferior in terms of PFS, produced less toxicity and better overall treatment utility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Type of publication: Conference abstract Author(s): Swinson D.E.; Hall P.; Seymour M.; Lord S.; Marshall H.; Ruddock S.; Cairns D.; Waters J.; Wadsley J.; Falk S.; Roy R.; Joseph M.; Nicoll J.; Vellios Kamposioras K.; Tillett T.; Cummins S.; Grumett<span class=\"ellipsis\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/2020\/04\/30\/optimizing-chemotherapy-for-frail-and-or-elderly-patient-with-advanced-gastroesophageal-cancer-agoac-the-go2-phase-iii-trial-2019\/\">Read more <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Optimizing chemotherapy for frail and\/or elderly patient with advanced gastroesophageal cancer (AGOAC): the GO2 phase III trial (2019)<\/span><span class=\"meta-nav\"> &#8250;<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<p><!-- end of .read-more --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[200],"tags":[832,256,891,687,353],"class_list":["post-5904","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-staff-publication","tag-832","tag-chemotherapy","tag-gastrointestinal-cancer","tag-oesophageal-cancer","tag-oncology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5904","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5904"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5904\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5905,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5904\/revisions\/5905"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5904"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5904"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5904"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
