[Treatment Outcomes of Advanced Gastric Cancer after Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy with S-1 and Cisplatin].
2016
BACKGROUND: The prognosis after neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC)is expected to improve in patients with resectable advanced gastric cancer who are at high risk of recurrence or those with unfavorable prognostic factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This retrospective study examined treatment outcomes and survival of 25 patients with advanced gastric cancer who received NAC with S-1 and cisplatin(CDDP)between October 2008 and December 2015. RESULTS: Among patients with clinical Stage II (4 patients)and III (21 patients)tumors, 13 had partial response(PR)and 12 had stable disease(SD). Neither complete response(CR)nor progressive disease(PD)was noted. CR of lymph node metastases was observed in 6 patients, PR in 9 patients, and SD in 7 patients. R0 resection was performed in 16 patients, R1 in 3 patients, and R2 in 6 patients. Histologic grades of primary tumors were Grade 0(1 patient), Grade 1a(16 patients), Grade 1b(5 patients), Grade 2(3 patients), and Grade 3(none). The 3-year survival rate after R0 resection was 46%, 3-year progression-free survival rate was 68%, and 3-year recurrence-free survival rate was 69%. Significant differences were observed for pathologic stages ypN0/1, 2, and 3(p=0.04), tumor down-stage(p=0.02), and overall tumor fStage I , II / III , and IV (p<0.01). CONCLUSION: It is conceivable that R0 resection and downstaging after NAC will improve prognosis.
