4640 Background: The prognosis of gastric cancer is dismal once R0 resection is impossible due to local invasion or distant metastasis. Previous studies have suggested the possible efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for the patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (AGC). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the feasibility, the impact on R0 resection of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced, unresectable or intra-abdominal metastatic gastric cancer Methods: Patients with advanced gastric cancer, clinically unresectable because of local invasion or intra-abdominal metastasis in paraaortic lymph nodes and/or peritoneum based on CT scan were entered into this study. Preoperative chemotherapy consisted of docetaxel 60 mg/m2 IV on day 1, cisplatin 60 mg/m2 IV on day 1, and capecitabine 1,875 mg/m2/day PO on days 1 - 14 every 21 days. After 2 cycles of chemotherapy, the tumors were evaluated. Unless disease progression was encountered, surgery was performed after total 3 - 6 cycles of chemotherapy and followed by two cycle of adjuvant therapy with the same regimen if R0 resection was done. Results: Total 49 patients were accrued. Among them, 36 (74%) could undergo surgery, and 31 (63%) had R0 resection. R0 resection was possible in 15 (71%) of 21 patients with initially unresectable T4 lesions and in 12 (70%) of 17 patients with paraaortic lymph node enlargement, while only in 3 (42%) of 7 patients with suspicious peritoneal seeding. After a median follow up of 18.2 months for the surviving patients, median overall survival and progression free survival of total enrolled patients were 19 months (95% C.I, 10.5 - 27.4) and 11.6 months (95% C.I, 9.6 - 13.7), respectively. Among 31 patients who underwent R0 resection, median OS was 33.4 months and median PFS was 18.2 months. Major toxicity was neutropenia and grade 3/4 neutropenia occurred in 77% of patients, but there was only 4% of neutropenic fever and no treatment related mortality. Postoperative morbidities were observed in 4 patients. Conclusions: These data suggested that neoadjuvant DXP chemotherapy could offer a reasonable chance for curative surgery in AGC patients with local invasion or paraaortic lymph node enlargement. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

TPS180 Background: Prognosis for locally advanced gastric cancer, such as clinical T4 disease, bulky nodal involvement, type 4 and large type 3 gastric cancer, was not satisfactory even by D2 gastrectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is another promising approach. In our phase I study, neoadjuvant chemotherapy of S-1 and oxaliplatin (SOX) had manageable toxicities and good pathological complete response rate (33%) in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. Based on the results of this phase I study, we initiate a multi-institutional, single-arm, open label, phase II study (Neo G-SOX PII study). The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the neoadjuvant chemotherapy of S-1 and oxaliplatin (SOX) followed by gastrectomy with D2/3 lymph node dissection; clinical T4; clinically resectable gastric cancer of type 4 or large type 3 (over 8 cm); bulky nodal involvement around major branched arteries to the stomach Methods: Eligibility criteria include histologically proven adenocarcinoma of the stomach; clinical T4; clinically resectable gastric cancer of type 4 or large type 3 (over 8 cm); bulky nodal involvement around major branched arteries to the stomach; resectable peritoneal dissemination (pathological CY1 or P1, except for clinical CY1 or P1). Patients receive two cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 (80 mg/m2, p.o., days 1-14 followed by 1 week rest) and oxaliplatin (130 mg/m2 at day 1), followed by D2 or higher surgery with no residual disease. Patients with pathological R0/1 resection received S-1 (80 mg/m2, p.o., days 1-28 followed by 2 week rest) for 1 year as adjuvant chemotherapy. Primary endpoint is curative resection rate. Key secondary endpoints include pathological response, R0/1 resection rate, dose-intensity, overall survival, relapse free survival and safety. We set the threshold curative resection rate at 65% and the expected curative resection rate at 80%. Given a one-sided α of 0.1 and statistical power of 80%, 40 patients was required.

e18263 Background: Surgery with lymph node dissection is the primary treatment for patients with localized resectable gastric cancer. However, the prognosis of locally advanced gastric cancer is poor. One promising approach is neoadjuvant chemotherapy, however, the use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy consisting of oxaliplatin-based regimen for locally advanced gastric cancer has not been reported. Oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity may continue after the chemotherapy and interfere with patients’ daily activities. We conducted two prospective phase I study of oxaliplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced gastric cancer and assessed the oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy using the FACT-Ga and FACT-GOG-Ntx assessments. Methods: We planned two cycles of oxaliplatin administration and evaluated oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy using the FACT-Ga and FACT-GOG-Ntx assessments. Patients with locally advanced gastric cancer received two cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with oxaliplatin (100 or 130 mg/m2) on day 1, as well as S-1 (80 mg/m2/day, b.i.d.) or capecitabine (2000 mg/m2/day, b.i.d.) for 14 days, repeated every 3 weeks. They then underwent gastrectomy with curative D2/3 lymph-node dissection followed by adjuvant S-1 (80 mg/m2/day, b.i.d.) for one year. QoL was assessed at baseline and during treatment. Results: Twelve patients were enrolled and fully assessed the QoL. All patients were chmo-naïve and had a good performance status: median age 70y, 67% male. The mean dose intensity of delivered during the neoadjuvant chemotherapy was 96.0% for oxaliplatin. Peripheral neuropathy was observed in all patients but with no functional disorders. Median time to QoL deterioration in FACT-G and FACT-GOG-NTx was 3 weeks. There were correlation between oxaliplatin administration and QoL deterioration by the repeated-measures ANOVA. Conclusions: FACT-GOG-Ntx showed that sensory neuropathy caused a deterioration in QoL immediately after the initiation of preoperative oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy, but that QoL recovered after the neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.
