Study Summary

Drugs used in chemotherapy such as cisplatin and fluorouracil use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Oblimersen may increase the effectiveness of chemotherapy by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drugs. This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of oblimersen when given with cisplatin and fluorouracil and to see how well they work in treating patients with locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic cancer of the esophagus, gastroesophageal junction, or stomach.

Primary Outcome

Adverse events were evaluated according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (version 2.0). DLT was defined as grade 3 to 4 hematologic toxicity lasting more than 1 week after 5-FU/cisplatin, grade 3 to 4 nausea or vomiting occurring later than 11 days after cisplatin, grade 3 to 4 diarrhea occurring later than 10 days after 5-FU, and grade 3 to 4 mucositis at the beginning of the next cycle.
