Randomized Trial of Adjuvant Chemotherapy With Cisplatin Followed by UFT in Serosa-positive Gastric Cancer (JCOG9206-2)

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Gastric Neoplasm
Registration Number
NCT00147147
Lead Sponsor
Japan Clinical Oncology Group
Brief Summary

To evaluate the survival benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy after curative resection with D2 or greater lymph node dissection in T3-4 gastric cancer patients.

Detailed Description

Purpose: To evaluate the survival benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy after curative resection in serosa-positive gastric cancer patients, a multicenter phase III clinical trial was conducted by 13 participating centers in Japan. Methods: From January 1993 to March 1998, 268 patients were randomized to either adjuvant chemotherapy (135 pts) or surgery alone (133 pts). The chemotherapy comprised intraperitoneal cisplatin 70 mg/m2 before closing the abdomen, and after surgery intravenous cisplatin 70 mg/m2 (day 14) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) 700 mg/m2 daily (day 14-16), and oral FU (UFT) 267 mg/m2 daily from 4 weeks after surgery for the next 12 months. The primary endpoint was overall survival. Relapse-free survival and the site of recurrence were secondary endpoints.

Comparison: gastrectomy with D2 or greater lymph node dissection versus gastrectomy with adjuvant chemotherapy after curative resection in serosa-positive gastric cancer patients.
