Brief Title: Docetaxel and S1 (DS) Versus S1 and Cisplatin (SP) in Curatively Resected Stage IIIB/IV Gastric Cancer
Official Title: A Randomized, Multicenter, Open-label, Phase III Trial of Docetaxel and S1 (DS) Versus S1 and Cisplatin (SP) in Curatively Resected (D2) Gastric Cancer of Stage IIIB/IV (M0)
Study ID: NCT01283217
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 46\~56% and a median survival time of 14.0\~14.3 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).
