Three-Year Outcomes Of Two Phase Ii Studies Of Adjuvant Chemotherapy With S-1 Plus Oxaliplatin Or Capecitabine Plus Oxaliplatin In Patients With Stage Iii Gastric Cancer After D2 Gastrectomy

94Background: Two phase II trials of oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy for patients (pts) with gastric cancer (GC) after D2 gastrectomy have been conducted in Japan; the J-CLASSIC study of capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (CAPOX) and the SOXaGC study of S-1 plus oxaliplatin (SOX). In the current study, we evaluated survival outcomes of the two trials. Methods: The J-CLASSIC, enrolling stage II and III pts from 12 centers between July 2012 and July 2013, evaluated eight cycles of CAPOX. The SOXaGC, enrolling stage III pts from 11 centers between July 2013 and February 2014, evaluated seven cycles of SOX after one cycle of S-1 monotherapy. The two studies were conducted sequentially and most centers (9 centers) participated in both trials. In this pooled analysis, we updated relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) information. The median follow-up time was 49 months in the J-CLASSIC and 39 months in the SOXaGC. Results: Fifty-nine stage III pts treated with CAPOX and 62 stage III pts treate...
