- Abstract
Aim: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of taxane‐based and platinum‐based regimens in patients with early recurrent gastric cancer after radical surgery with S‐1 adjuvant chemotherapy. Methods: The medical records of 118 patients from six institutes with early recurrent stage II/III gastric cancer, who developed recurrence during adjuvant S‐1 or within 6 months after completion of adjuvant therapy between January 2006 and December 2017, were retrospectively analyzed. Patients treated with second line chemotherapy were enrolled and followed to the end of December 2019. The impact of two regimens, taxane‐based (n = 46) versus platinum‐based (n = 31), on treatment outcome were evaluated using multivariate analysis. Results: Median overall survival was 9.0 months and median progression‐free survival was 4.1 months. No difference was observed in overall survival between taxane‐based and platinum‐based regimens (P = 0.64). Although not significant, the response rate of platinum‐based regimens was better than that of taxane‐based regimens (16% vs. 6.5%, P = 0.26). Multivariate analysis identified performance status (P = 0.040), multiorgan metastases (P = 0.029), and undifferentiated histological type (P = 0.018) as independent poor prognostic factors. In undifferentiated histological type, multiorgan metastases (P = 0.013) and taxane‐based regimens (P = 0.018) were independent prognosis factors characterized by multivariate analysis. Conversion rate to third‐line chemotherapy or more was 51% in undifferentiated histological type and 65% in differentiated histological type (P = 0.26). Conclusion: Platinum‐based regimens may be recommended for undifferentiated early recurrent gastric cancer after S‐1 adjuvant chemotherapy.
