Abstract
Background
Gastric cancer (GC) patients with positive peritoneal lavage cytology (CY1) and/or localized peritoneum metastasis (P1a) are defined as stage IV in the 15th edition of the Japanese Classification of Gastric Cancer. In Japan, the most common treatment for patients with CY1 and/or P1a is gastrectomy followed by postoperative chemotherapy.
Patients and Methods
Subjects in this multi-institutional retrospective study were GC patients with CY1 and/or P1a who received surgical resection that leaves no macroscopically visible disease. Patients were selected from 34 institutions in Japan between 2007 and 2012. Selection criteria included adenocarcinoma, no distant metastasis except CY1 and P1a, and no prior treatment for GC before surgery.
Results
Among 824 patients registered, 506 were identified as eligible, with a background of P0CY1, P1aCY0, or P1aCY1 (72.5%, 16.0%, and 11.5% of subjects, respectively). Sixty-two patients had not received postoperative chemotherapy (no-Cx), whereas 444 patients had received postoperative chemotherapy: S-1 monotherapy (S-1; n = 267, 52.7%), cisplatin plus S-1 (CS; n = 114, 22.5%), and others (n = 63, 12.6%). Overall survival (OS) was 29.5, 24.7, 25.4 and 9.9 months in the S-1, CS, ‘others’, and no-Cx groups, respectively [CS vs. S-1: hazard ratio (HR) 1.15, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.89–1.50; p = 0.275]. In multivariate analysis, OS was similar between the S-1 and CS groups (CS vs. S-1: HR 1.19, 95% CI 0.92–1.55; p = 0.18).
Conclusions
Postoperative chemotherapy after gastrectomy that leaves no macroscopically visible disease may have some survival benefits for GC patients with CY1 and/or P1a. In contrast, S-1 plus cisplatin seems to have no additional benefit over S-1 treatment alone.
