Efficacy after preoperative capecitabine and oxaliplatin (XELOX) versus docetaxel, oxaliplatin and S1 (DOS) in patients with locally advanced gastric adenocarcinoma: a propensity score matching analysis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:The aim of this study was to compare the efficacies of the XELOX and DOS regimens as preoperative chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. METHODS:All cases of locally advanced gastric cancer treated with the XELOX or DOS regimen were reviewed retrospectively. Propensity score matching (PSM) was carried out to reduce selection bias based on age, gender, location, Lauren type, carcinoembryonic antigen level, clinical tumor stage, and clinical node stage. RESULTS:From January 2010 to December 2016, 248 patients were matched; 159 of them received the XELOX regimen and 89 the DOS regimen. The response rates in the XELOX and DOS groups were 34.5 and 38.1%, respectively (P?=?0.823). After four cycles of chemotherapy, 111 patients (69.8%) in the XELOX group and 65 patients (73.0%) in the DOS group underwent radical surgery (P?=?0.485). The median progression-free survival (33.0 months vs. 18.7 months, P?=?0.0356) and the median overall survival (43.8 months vs. 29.1 months, P?=?0.0003) were longer for patients who received the DOS regimen than for those who received the XELOX regimen. The occurrence of grade 3 to 4 toxicity was similar in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS:For locally advanced gastric cancer patients, the DOS regimen showed more benefit than the XELOX regimen as preoperative chemotherapy, without any added toxicity effects.

Project description:BackgroundDistant metastasis has been the main failure pattern for locoregionally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) patients, and intensified neoadjuvant chemotherapy has become a popular research topic. The present study aimed to compare the survival outcomes, acute toxicities and surgical complications in LARC patients who received preoperative chemoradiotherapy with triweekly oxaliplatin and capecitabine (triweekly XELOX) or capecitabine.MethodsBetween 2007 and 2017, patients with clinically staged II-III rectal cancer who were treated with preoperative chemoradiotherapy using either triweekly XELOX (oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 plus capecitabine 825 mg/m2) or capecitabine were included. Variables potentially influencing chemotherapy treatment selection were used to generate propensity scores (PS). The association between chemotherapy regimens and survival endpoints, including distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS), were evaluated and adjusted with PS. The acute toxicities and surgical complications were also compared.ResultsA total of 810 patients were included in the analysis; 277 (34.2%) patients received triweekly XELOX, and 533 (65.8%) received capecitabine. The pathological complete response (pCR) rates were 20.2 and 19.9% (P = 0.912) for the groups treated with triweekly XELOX and capecitabine, respectively. The 5-year DMFS, OS and DFS with triweekly XELOX versus capecitabine were 75.6% vs. 77.6% (P = 0.555), 79.2% vs. 83.3% (P = 0.101), and 69.9% vs. 73.7% (P = 0.283), respectively. Triweekly XELOX was not associated with an increased risk of severe toxicity during chemoradiotherapy, but it increased the risk of postoperative complications compared to capecitabine. After PS adjustment, the differences between the two groups remained insignificant in pCR rate, survival outcomes, and acute toxicities, and the difference in surgical complications disappeared.ConclusionsTriweekly XELOX or capecitabine concurrent with neoadjuvant radiotherapy leads to similar long-term survival outcomes, acute toxicities and surgical complications in LARC patients.
