Docetaxel and S1 (DS) Versus S1 and Cisplatin (SP) in Curatively Resected Stage IIIB/IV Gastric Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Docetaxel was the first drug that showed survival benefits when added to the CF regimen, but it was very toxic. Docetaxel is also has a synergistic anti-cancer effect with S-1, in phase I/II studies. The use of a docetaxel plus S-1 combination as first-line chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer achieved response rates of 4656% and a median survival time of 14.014.3 months.
Based upon this background, the aim of this study is to detect a significant increase in 3 year DFS of disease for the test group (DS) relative to the Control group (SP).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- 3-year disease free survival(DFS) [3 years]
Tumor assessments with chest X-rays and CT or MRI scan will be done at 6 months after randomization (after the end of the treatment period), then every 3 months for the first 2 years after randomization and then every 6 months for coming 3 years then one year basis until completion of the study.
