Abstract
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a concurrent three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) or intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plus oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin (FOLFOX) regimen in completely resected gastric cancer patients with D2 lymph node dissection. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with stage IB-IIIC gastric cancer (per the AJCC, 7th edition) who had undergone R0 and D2 gastrectomy were recruited. Two cycles of FOLFOX with concurrent 3D-CRT or IMRT (50.4 Gy/28f) were administered. One and an additional five cycles of FOLFOX were delivered before and after concurrent chemoradiotherapy, respectively. Primary endpoints were relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS), with adverse events as secondary endpoints. RESULTS: From 2008 to 2011, 110 patients were evaluable. The 1-, 2- and 3-year RFS and OS were 86.2, 72.2, 67.8 and 94.7, 87.2, 77.6%, respectively. On multivariate analysis, stage (≤ IIIA vs. >IIIA) was a statistically significant factor affecting both RFS and OS. Additionally, the T-category (≤ T4a vs. = T4b) was a statistically significant factor affecting only the RFS. The most commonly observed grade 3 or 4 adverse events were nausea and vomiting, decreased appetite, leukopenia/neutropenia and fatigue, each of which occurred in 14.5, 11.8, 9.1 and 6.4% patients, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Adjuvant 3D-CRT/IMRT to a dose of 50.4 Gy/28f with concurrent FOLFOX is safe and effective in patients following radical gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection.
