Effect of Adjuvant Chemotherapy Cycles on Patients With Node-negative Gastric Cancer Following Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy: Multicenter Cohort Study

To explore the effect of adjuvant chemotherapy cycles on the prognosis of this specific patient with lymph node-negative gastric cancer following neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

We analyzed clinicopathological data from patients with lymph node-negative gastric cancer who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy at four institutions between 2010 and 2020. The 3-year OS was assessed using landmark analysis. Independent risk factors associated with 3-year OS were identified using a Cox proportional hazards regression model.

Study Population

Patients with node-negative gastric cancer following neoadjuvant chemotherapy

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • (1) preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy; (2) primary gastric adenocarcinoma, diagnosed by gastroscopic pathology findings before neoadjuvant chemotherapy in complete pathological remission (pCR) cases or via postoperative pathology findings in all other instances; (3) absence of distant metastases in the liver, lungs, or abdominal cavity, as confirmed by preoperative chest radiography or chest computed tomography (CT), abdominal ultrasonography, abdominal CT, and other imaging; (4) radical gastric cancer surgery (R0) and D2 lymph node dissection; and (5) postoperative pathologic verification of no lymph node metastasis (i.e., lymph node-negative).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • (1) preoperative radiotherapy or radiochemotherapy, (2) discovery of distant metastases preoperatively or intraoperatively, (3) coexistence of other malignant tumors, (4) residual gastric cancer, and (5) perioperative patient mortality.
