146 Background: Docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5FU (DCF) significantly improved TTP, OS, and response rate in gastric cancer patients, but resulted in some increase in toxicity compared with cisplatin and 5FU (CF) in multinational study such as V325 report. The main goal of this study is to report the experience of a single center about efficacy and tolerability of modified DCF in advanced or recurrent gastric cancer patients. Methods: A total of 23 patients with advanced or recurrent gastric cancer who had been treated with modified docetaxel, cisplatin and 5FU (mDCF) at Seoul Paik Hospital between Feb 2009 and June 2010 were included. Treatment protocol was 60 mg/m2 of docetaxel, 50 mg/m2 of cisplatin on D1, and 950 mg/m2/day of 5FU continuous infusion on D1-3 until disease progression or intolerance to chemotherapy. Clinical data were collected retrospectively. Results: Twenty-one patients were assessable for response. The ORR was 34.8% (8/23), and DCR 69.6% (16/23). Median PFS and OS were 6.8 months (95% CI, 3.8-9.8) and 11.9 months (95% CI, 6.6-17.2). The main toxicities were anorexia, diarrhea, and neuropathy. Grade 3 or 4 hematologic toxicities were neutropenia in 4 patients (17.4%), leukopenia in 5 patients (21.7%), anemia in 2 patients (8.7%) and thrombocytopenia 1 patient (4.3%). The treatment related death occurred in 1 patient (4.3%) due to febrile neutropenia. The median cycle was 5. Ten patients (43.5%) received chemotherapy more than 8 cycles with tolerable toxicities. Conclusions: Compared with previous studies, the presented mDCF showed a lower ORR, but more acceptable toxicities profiles, and similar PFS and OS in patients with advanced gastric cancer.

4529 Background: Intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy is a promising treatment option for gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis. Although a phase III study failed to show a statistically significant superiority of IP paclitaxel (PTX) combined with S-1 and intravenous PTX over S-1/cisplatin (SP), the standard of care as a first-line treatment in Japan, the sensitivity analysis suggested clinical efficacy of the IP PTX. Thus, attempts to combine IP PTX with other systemic therapies with higher efficacy have been warranted. After a dose-finding study, we sought to explore efficacy of a new regimen that combined IP PTX with SP. Methods: Gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis confirmed by diagnostic imaging, laparoscopy or laparotomy were enrolled in the phase II multi-institutional prospective trial. In addition to the established SP regimen (S-1 administered orally at a dose of 80 mg/m2 bid for 21 days followed by a 14-day rest and cisplatin administered intravenously at a dose of 60 mg/m2 on day 8), IP PTX was administered on days 1, 8 and 22 at a dose of 20 mg/m2. The primary endpoint is overall survival (OS) rate at one year after treatment initiation. Secondary endpoints are progression free survival (PFS), response rate and toxicity. Results: Fifty-three patients were enrolled and fully evaluated for OS and toxicity. The median number of courses was 7 (range 1-20). The 1-year OS rate was 74% (95% CI, 60-83%). The median survival time was 19.4 months (95% CI, 16.7 months-). The 1-year PFS rate was 57% (95% CI, 42-69%). The overall response rate was 20% (95% CI, 1-72%) in 5 patients with target lesions. Cancer cells ceased to be detected by peritoneal cytology in 23 (64%) of 36 patients. Fourteen (26%) patients underwent gastrectomy after response to chemotherapy. The incidences of grade 3/4 hematological and non-hematological toxicities were 43% and 47%, respectively. The frequent grade 3/4 toxicities included neutropenia (23%), anemia (29%), diarrhea (13%) and anorexia (17%). Intraperitoneal catheter and implanted port-related complications were observed in 4 patients. There was 1 treatment-related death. Conclusions: IP PTX combined with SP is well tolerated and active in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis. Clinical trial information: UMIN000023000 .

4542 Background: A phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of weekly intravenous and intraperitoneal paclitaxel combined with S-1 was performed in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis. Methods: Gastric cancer patients with peritoneal dissemination and/or cancer cells on peritoneal cytology were enrolled. Paclitaxel was administered intravenously at 50 mg/m2 and intraperitoneally at 20 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8. S-1 was administered at 80 mg/m2/day for 14 consecutive days, followed by 7 days rest. The primary endpoint was the 1-year overall survival rate. Secondary endpoints were the response rate, efficacy against malignant ascites and safety. Results: Forty patients were enrolled, including 21 with primary tumors with peritoneal dissemination confirmed by staging laparoscopy, 13 with peritoneal recurrence, and 6 with positive peritoneal cytology only. The median number of courses administered was 7 (range 1–23). The 1-year overall survival rate was 78% (95% CI, 65–90%). The overall response rate was 56% (95% CI, 32–79%) in 18 patients with target lesions. Malignant ascites disappeared or decreased in 13 of 21 (62%) patients. The incidences of grade 3/4 hematological and non- hematological toxicities were 40% and 15%, respectively. The frequent grade 3/4 toxicities included neutropenia (38%), leukopenia (18%), anemia (10%), and nausea (8%). Catheter obstruction observed in one patient was the only complication related to the peritoneal access device or intraperitoneal infusion. There were no treatment-related deaths. Conclusions: Combination chemotherapy of intravenous and intraperitoneal paclitaxel with S-1 is well tolerated and active in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis.

Purpose In the randomized, multinational phase II/III trial (V325) of untreated advanced gastric cancer patients, the phase II part selected docetaxel, cisplatin, and fluorouracil (DCF) over docetaxel and cisplatin for comparison against cisplatin and fluorouracil (CF; reference regimen) in the phase III part. Patients and Methods Advanced gastric cancer patients were randomly assigned to docetaxel 75 mg/m2 and cisplatin 75 mg/m2 (day 1) plus fluorouracil 750 mg/m2/d (days 1 to 5) every 3 weeks or cisplatin 100 mg/m2 (day 1) plus fluorouracil 1,000 mg/m2/d (days 1 to 5) every 4 weeks. The primary end point was time-to-progression (TTP). Results In 445 randomly assigned and treated patients (DCF = 221; CF = 224), TTP was longer with DCF versus CF (32% risk reduction; log-rank P < .001). Overall survival was longer with DCF versus CF (23% risk reduction; log-rank P = .02). Two-year survival rate was 18% with DCF and 9% with CF. Overall response rate was higher with DCF (χ2 P = .01). Grade 3 to 4 treatment-related adverse events occurred in 69% (DCF) v 59% (CF) of patients. Frequent grade 3 to 4 toxicities for DCF v CF were: neutropenia (82% v 57%), stomatitis (21% v 27%), diarrhea (19% v 8%), lethargy (19% v 14%). Complicated neutropenia was more frequent with DCF than CF (29% v 12%). Conclusion Adding docetaxel to CF significantly improved TTP, survival, and response rate in gastric cancer patients, but resulted in some increase in toxicity. Incorporation of docetaxel, as in DCF or with other active drug(s), is a new therapy option for patients with untreated advanced gastric cancer.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the role of nutritional factors in predicting radiotherapy-associated toxicities for gastric cancer patients. Methods: A total of 285 gastric cancer patients who underwent radiotherapy in our hospital between 2010 and 2017 were included in this retrospective study. Nutritional status assessment included body weight loss (BWL), body mass index (BMI), serum albumin, nutrition risk screening 2002(NRS-2002), patient-generated subjective global assessment(PG-SGA) and nutritional risk index (NRI). Results: Of all patients, 19.6% were underweight (BMI <18.5 kg/m2), 25.6% were hypoalbuminemia (<35 g l−1) and 48.8% lost ≥10% of body weight in the 6 month interval before radiotherapy(BWL). Meanwhile, 73.3%, 78.6 and 47.2% of the patients were diagnosed as malnutrition based on NRS-2002, PG-SGA and NRI, respectively. Hematological adverse events were present in 91.2% (≥Grade 1) and 20.4% (≥Grade 3) of the patients. Non-hematological adverse events occurred in 89.8% (≥Grade1) and 14.4% (≥Grade 3) of the patients. Multivariate analyses indicated that only hypoalbuminemia(<35 g l−1) was independent predictor for Grade 3/4 hematological and non-hematological adverse events. Meanwhile, higher BWL(≥10%) was also independent predictor for Grade 3/4 non-hematological adverse events. NRS-2002, PG-SGA and NRI score were not associated with treatment-induced adverse events. Conclusions: Body weight loss and serum albumin are useful factors for predicting severe adverse events in gastric cancer patients who undergo radiotherapy. Advances in knowledge: The use of nutritional factors in predicting severe adverse events enables implementation of individualized treatment strategies for early and intensive nutritional interventions in high-risk patients.

Background.This retrospective study aimed to assess the efficacy and toxicities of second-line chemotherapy with irinotecan, leucovorin, and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in metastatic gastric cancer (MGC) patients previously treated with docetaxel and S-1 with or without oxaliplatin (DS/DOS).Patients and Methods.We reviewed the data of patients who had previously been treated with first-line DS/DOS and received biweekly irinotecan-based chemotherapy (FOLFIRI/IFL) between October 2004 and November 2011.Results.A total of 209 cycles were administered to 35 patients, with a median of 4 (range, 1–22) cycles each. The overall response rate in 29 response-assessable patients was 17.2%, including 2 complete and 3 partial responses. The median progression-free and overall survivals were 3.81 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.82–5.80) months and 6.24 (95% CI, 1.44–11.04) months, respectively. The major grade 3/4 toxicity was neutropenia (8.6%).Conclusion.FOLFIRI/IFL chemotherapy showed modest antitumour activity and tolerable toxicities in DS/DOS-treated MGC patients.
