Aim. To increase the effectiveness of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer by correcting nutritional deficiency. Materials and methods. Of 200 patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (mean age 57.2 years (46.168.3), 100 patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with nutritional support from 2018 to 2020. One hundred patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy without nutritional support from 2013 to 2018 (historical control). The incidence of nutritional deficiency before treatment in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy + nutritional support group was 54%, and in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy only group it was 47%. Nutritional status was assessed using anthropometry, questionnaires (NRS-2002, MUST, GLIM), dynamometry, blood tests, bioimpedance. Complications according to NCI CTCAE v5.0; оbjective response rate according to RECIST 1.1; pathomorphological regression according to the JGCA classification (2017); 2-year event-free survival were assessed. Results. The frequency of nutritional deficiency before the start of treatment in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy + nutritional support group was 54%, in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy only group 47%. After the completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the group neoadjuvant chemotherapy + nutritional support the frequency of nutritional deficiency was 1%, in the group neoadjuvant chemotherapy only without nutritional support 62%. In patients with nutritional deficiency in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy + nutritional support group, partial regression was registered in 51.9% of cases, in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy only group it was 27.6% (p0.05). There were no differences in the frequency of pathological response. 2-year event-free survival in patients without nutritional deficiency in the group neoadjuvant chemotherapy + nutritional support was 100%, in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy only group it was 68.5% (p0.001); in patients with nutritional deficiency 72,5 and 60.6% respectively (p0.05). Conclusion. Nutritional deficiency is an important predictive and prognostic marker of the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced gastric cancer. Comprehensive diagnosis of nutritional status and nutritional support can improve the results of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer.

205 Background:TAS-118 (S-1 and leucovorin) + oxaliplatin (L-OHP) improved overall survival (OS) compared to S-1 + cisplatin for patients (pts) with advanced gastric cancer (GC) (Kang, Lancet Oncol. 2020). This study investigated the feasibility of peri (pre and post)-operative (op) chemotherapy (chemo) with TAS-118 ± L-OHP in pts with locally advanced resectable GC. While it was reported that pre-op TAS-118 + L-OHP followed by D2 gastrectomy was well tolerated and showed promising efficay (Takahari, ASCO-GI. 2020), the recommended post-op chemo regimen, TAS-118 or TAS-118 + L-OHP, has yet to be determined. Methods:Eligible pts with GC of clinical T3-4N1-3M0 were enrolled. The protocol treatment consisted of pre-op chemo with 4 courses of TAS-118 (40-60 mg/body, orally, twice daily, 7 days) + L-OHP (85 mg/m2, intravenously, day 1) in a 2-week cycle, and gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy, followed by post-op chemo with 12 courses of TAS-118 (step 1) and 8 courses of TAS-118 + L-OHP (step 2). Step 2 was started if the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) occurred in < 6 of 10 pts in step 1. Up to 20 pts were included in the analysis of feasibility after a recommended regimen was determined. Results:Between December 2016 and February 2019, 45 pts were enrolled. The numbers of pts with cT3/4a and cN1/2/3 were 13/32 and 25/17/3, respectively. Excluding 14 pts (4 achieving pathological complete response, 4 not satisfying the criteria for post-op chemo, 3 physician judgement or pt withdrawal, 2 progressive disease, 1 adverse event [AE]), 31 pts (11/20 in step 1/2) received the post-op chemo. No DLT was observed in either step. The post-op chemo completion rate was 90.9% (95% CI, 63.6-99.5) in step 1 and 80.0% (95% CI, 59.9-92.9) in step 2. The median relative dose intensity of TAS-118 in step 1 was 83.3%, and those of TAS-118 and L-OHP in step 2 were 69.9% and 74.3%, respectively. One pt in step 2 discontinued post-op chemo due to AE. Grade ³ 3 AEs observed in ≥ 10% of pts were weight loss in both step 1 and step 2 (2 in each), and hypokalemia (n = 3) and neutropenia (n = 2) in step 2. At 1-year follow-up after the last pt was enrolled, recurrence-free survival and OS rates were 91.1% (95% CI, 78.0-96.6) and 100%, respectively at 12 months, and 69.1% (95% CI, 49.6-82.3) and 95.5% (95% CI, 71.9-99.3), respectively at 24 months. Conclusions:Taken together with the feasibility and efficacy of pre-op chemo, peri-op chemo with TAS-118 + L-OHP with D2 gastrectomy was well tolerated and showed promising efficacy.

AbstractWhether extensive intraoperative peritoneal lavage (EIPL) after gastrectomy is beneficial to patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (AGC) is not clear. This phase 3, multicenter, parallel-group, prospective randomized study (NCT02745509) recruits patients between April 2016 and November 2017. Eligible patients who had been histologically proven AGC with T3/4NxM0 stage are randomly assigned (1:1) to either surgery alone or surgery plus EIPL. The results of the two groups are analyzed in the intent-to-treat population. A total of 662 patients with AGC (329 patients in the surgery alone group, and 333 in the surgery plus EIPL group) are included in the study. The primary endpoint is 3-year overall survival (OS). The secondary endpoints include 3-year disease free survival (DFS), 3-year peritoneal recurrence-free survival (reported in this manuscript) and 30-day postoperative complication and mortality (previously reported). The trial meets pre-specified endpoints. Estimated 3-year OS rates are 68.5% in the surgery alone group and 70.6% in the surgery plus EIPL group (log-rank p = 0.77). 3-year DFS rates are 61.2% in the surgery alone group and 66.0% in the surgery plus EIPL group (log-rank p = 0.24). The pattern of disease recurrence is similar in the two groups. In conclusion, EIPL does not improve the 3-year survival rate in AGC patients.

e16019 Background: Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy is commonly given after the curative resection of gastric cancer (GC) in both Eastern and Western countries. Several studies have investigated the feasibility and safety of S-1 plus docetaxel or S-1 plus cisplatin. However, the best choice of adjuvant treatment for patients with gastric cancer is still debated. Apatinib, an oral small molecular of VEGFR-2 TKI, has been confirmed to improve OS and PFS with acceptable safety profile in patients with advanced gastric cancer refractory to two or more lines of prior chemotherapy. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib combined with S-1/docetaxel for locally advanced gastric cancer (T3-4aN+M0). Methods: This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter clinical study. Patients with locally advanced gastric cancer, pathological stage T3-4aN+M0 who underwent D2 lymphadenectomy without prior anti-cancer therapy were included. All these patients were assigned to group A or B. Patients in group A received 6 cycles (21 days a cycle) of adjuvant therapy using S-1 (80-120mg/d, d1-14), and docetaxel (40mg/m2, d1). Group B received the same regimen with the addition of apatinib (250mg, qd.). The primary endpoint was disease-free survival (DFS). The final analysis cutoff date was 30 November, 2020. Results: A total of 45 patients were enrolled from January 2019 to November, 2010 and assigned to group A (21) or group B (24). The DFS was not reached in both of the groups. The 1-year disease-free survival rate was 60% in group A and 90% in the group B, while the difference was not significant. The main AEs in group A were anemia (55%), nausea (50%) and neutropenia (40%); The most common AEs in group B were anemia (45%) neutropenia (40%) and diarrhea (25%). There were no treatment-related deaths. The longest administered time of apatinib with no progression was 457 days. And the median time to receive apatinib was 329 days. Conclusions: Combination of apatinib with S-1/docexal chemotherapy shows clinical benefits in locally advanced gastric cancer (T3-4aN+M0), with tolerable toxicity. The study is still ongoing to reach our final endpoint, DFS. Clinical trial information: ChiCTR2000038900.

PURPOSE It is unclear whether laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for locally advanced gastric cancer is oncologically equivalent to open distal gastrectomy. The noninferiority of laparoscopic subtotal gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy for locally advanced gastric cancer compared with open surgery in terms of 3-year relapse-free survival rate was evaluated. PATIENTS AND METHODS A phase III, open-label, randomized controlled trial was conducted for patients with histologically proven locally advanced gastric adenocarcinoma suitable for distal subtotal gastrectomy. The primary end point was the 3-year relapse-free survival rate; the upper limit of the hazard ratio (HR) for noninferiority was 1.43 between the laparoscopic and open distal gastrectomy groups. RESULTS From November 2011 to April 2015, 1,050 patients were randomly assigned to laparoscopy (n = 524) or open surgery (n = 526). After exclusions, 492 patients underwent laparoscopic surgery and 482 underwent open surgery and were included in the analysis. The laparoscopy group, compared with the open surgery group, suffered fewer early complications (15.7% v 23.4%, respectively; P = .0027) and late complications (4.7% v 9.5%, respectively; P = .0038), particularly intestinal obstruction (2.0% v 4.4%, respectively; P = .0447). The 3-year relapse-free survival rate was 80.3% (95% CI, 76.0% to 85.0%) for the laparoscopy group and 81.3% (95% CI, 77.0% to 85.0%; log-rank P = .726) for the open group. Cox regression analysis after stratification by the surgeon revealed an HR of 1.035 (95% CI, 0.762 to 1.406; log-rank P = .827; P for noninferiority = .039). When stratified by pathologic stage, the HR was 1.020 (95% CI, 0.751 to 1.385; log-rank P = .900; P for noninferiority = .030). CONCLUSION Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy was comparable to open surgery in terms of relapse-free survival for patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy could be a potential standard treatment option for locally advanced gastric cancer.
