121 Background: Adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 has been proven effective for patients with curatively resected advanced gastric cancer with D2 lymph node dissection in Japan. We assessed the safety and feasibility of adjuvant S-1 chemotherapy in Korean patients with stage II, III or IV(M0) gastric cancer. Methods: A total of 305 patients with stage II, III or IV(M0) gastric cancer received adjuvant S-1 chemotherapy following curative gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection in Asan Medical Center between October 2007 and December 2009. Adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 was started 3-6 weeks after surgery and it was administered orally twice daily at the dose of 40 mg/m2 for 4 weeks followed by 2 weeks of rest, every 6 weeks 8 times for 1 year. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of the patients and evaluated the safety and feasibility of adjuvant S-1 chemotherapy in Korean patients. Results: Among the 305 patients, 248 (81.3%) and 198 (64.9%) patients completed 4 and 8 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy, respectively. The most common reasons for discontinuation of treatment were adverse event (43.9%) and recurrence (26.2%). Among the 305 patients, 75 (24.6%) patients required dose reduction because of toxicities. The most common grade 3/4 toxicities were neutropenia (12.8%), diarrhea (5.3%), abdominal pain (3.8%), and anemia (3.3%). Multivariate analysis showed that total gastrectomy (H.R. 2.50; 95% C.I. 1.32-4.72, p=0.005) and female gender (H.R. 1.95; 95% C.I. 1.03-3.66, p=0.039) were independent risk factors for grade 3/4 hematologic toxicities, and old age (>65 years) (H.R. 2.92; 95% C.I. 1.50-5.69, p=0.002) was an independent risk factor for grade 3 non-hematologic toxicities. Conclusions: Adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 for 1 year was safe and feasible in Korean patients. Old age, female gender, and total gastrectomy were independent risk factors for severe toxicities of adjuvant S-1 chemotherapy.

Abstract Background: This study aimed to explore the risk factors associated with esophagojejunal anastomotic leakage (EJAL) in curative total gastrectomy combined with D2 lymph node dissection for gastric cancer.Methods: 390 consecutive patients receiving Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy reconstruction after surgery were reviewed. Multivariate analysis was performed using a logistic regression model to identify independent risk factors for EJAL.Results: Of the 390 patients enrolled in this study, EJAL occurred in 10 patients (2.6%). One patient (1/10) with EJAL died. Univariate analysis identified age (P = 0.025), alcohol consumption (P = 0.019), pulmonary insufficiency (P = 0.049), and intraoperative blood loss (P = 0.015) as risk factors for EJAL. Of these four risk factors, age (P = 0.043) and alcohol consumption (P = 0.043) were retained as independent risk factors by multivariate analysis.Conclusions: Surgeons should be very careful about anastomotic leakage during the perioperative period, especially in patients with advanced age and a history of alcohol consumption. Pulmonary insufficiency and intraoperative blood loss, although not being identified as independent risk factors, should also be considered.

Purpose The Adjuvant Chemoradiotherapy in Stomach Tumors (ARTIST) trial tested whether the addition of radiotherapy to adjuvant chemotherapy improved disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with D2-resected gastric cancer (GC). Patients and Methods Between November 2004 and April 2008, 458 patients with GC who received gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection were randomly assigned to either six cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy with capecitabine and cisplatin (XP) or to two cycles of XP followed by chemoradiotherapy and then two additional cycles of XP (XPRT). This final update contains the first publication of overall survival (OS), together with updated DFS and subset analyses. Results With 7 years of follow-up, DFS remained similar between treatment arms (hazard ratio [HR], 0.740; 95% CI, 0.520 to 1.050; P = .0922). OS also was similar (HR, 1.130; 95% CI, 0.775 to 1.647; P = .5272). The effect of the addition of radiotherapy on DFS and OS differed by Lauren classification (interaction P = .04 for DFS; interaction P = .03 for OS) and lymph node ratio (interaction P < .01 for DFS; interaction P < .01 for OS). Subgroup analyses also showed that chemoradiotherapy significantly improved DFS in patients with node-positive disease and with intestinal-type GC. There was a similar trend for DFS and OS by stage of disease. Conclusion In D2-resected GC, both adjuvant chemotherapy and chemoradiotherapy are tolerated and equally beneficial in preventing relapse. Because results suggest a significant DFS effect of chemoradiotherapy in subsets of patients, the ARTIST 2 trial evaluating adjuvant chemotherapy and chemoradiotherapy in patients with node-positive, D2-resected GC is under way.

For many decades, D2 procedure has been accepted in the far-east as the standard treatment for both early (EGC) and advanced gastric cancer (AGC). In case of AGC, the debate on the extent of nodal dissection has been open for many years in order to highlight the safety and efficacy of treatment, hence this study. A comprehensive literature research was performed in PubMed to identify studies that compared laparoscopic- assisted gastrectomy (LAG) and open gastrectomy (OG) with D2 lymph node dissection (D2-LND) for treatment of AGC for the last five years. Data of interest were checked and subjected to meta-analysis with RevMan 5.3 software. The pooled risk ratios (RR) and weighted mean difference (WMD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Overall, 19 studies were included in this meta-analysis. LG had some advantages over OG, including shorter hospitalization (WMD -2.31; 95% CI -4.09 to -0.53; P = 0.01), less blood loss (WMD -120.49; 95% CI -174.27 to -66.71; P < 0.01), faster bowel recovery (WMD -0.55; 95% CI -0.86 to -0.24; P ˂ 0.01) and earlier ambulation (WMD -0.75; 95% CI -1.38 to -0.11; P = 0.02). In terms of surgical and oncological safety, LG could achieve similar lymph nodes (WMD, -0.94, 95% CI, -2.95 to 1.06; P=0.36), a lower complication rate [odds ratio (OR)=0.80; 95%CI, 0.68-0.97; P=0.02], and overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) comparable to OG. In conclusion, for AGCs both techniques (LAG and OG) appeared comparable in short- and long-term results. More time was needed to perform LAG; nonetheless, it had some advantages in achieving faster postoperative recovery over OG. In order to clarify this controversial issue ongoing trials and future studies are needed.
