COMPLETED
PHASE2
38 participants

Participant Flow
Between March 2010 and May 2014, a total of 38 patients from 3 centers in Korea were enrolled. They underwent random assignment and 18 patients were assigned to arm A and 20 to arm B. The cutoff date for this report was March 15, 2015. Baseline characteristics of these patients are presented in Table 1, and they were well balanced between the 2 arms. The median number of LM was 2 and cT3N+ was the most common clinical disease stage in both arms.

The regression of the primary tumor was quantified according to the 5-point tumor regression grade proposed by Dworak. Complete regression = No tumor cells ; Near complete regression = Very few tumor cells; Moderate regression = Dominantly fibrotic changes with few tumor cells or groups; Minimal regression = Dominant tumor mass with obvious fibrosis
