Core Tip
Core tip: Based on the therapeutic efficacy of both S-1 mono-therapy and oxaliplatin plus capecitabine regimen in ACTS-gastric cancer (GC) and CLASSIC study, we conducted the multi-institutional research using propensity score-matched analysis to evaluate whether patients after D2 resection benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 plus oxaliplatin (SOX). Here, we firstly report that SOX adjuvant chemotherapy, compared with surgery alone, significantly improves disease-free survival and overall survival in stage IB-IIIC GC patients undergoing D2 resection with accepted side effects.
