Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Patients with advanced gastric cancer received neoadjuvant chemotherapy undergo enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In recent years, enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs were applied in gastrectomy in areas with a high prevalence of gastric cancer, such as China and Japan, confirming that ERAS programs accelerate the postoperative rehabilitation of gastric cancer patients without increasing the occurrence rate of postoperative complications. However, in most studies on ERAS for gastric cancer, patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy were excluded. Investigators designed this study aimed to evaluate whether patients who receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy can enrolled into enhanced recovery after surgery programs for locally advanced gastric cancer.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

NAC group

Patients will receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) before the gastrectomy and ERAS.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

NAC group

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

NAC is the name of a procedure. NAC doesn't mean different interventions are used. Patients in this group need receive this NAC procedure instead of one drug before the gastrectomy and ERAS. The program consists of an intravenous injection of 130 mg/m2 oxaliplatin on day 1, followed by oral administration of 50 mg tegafur gimerac (the name of an anticarcinogen) twice daily on days 1-14, every 3 weeks.

Surgery alone group

Patients will not receive NAC before the gastrectomy and ERAS.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Surgery alone group

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Patients will not receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy and they will undergo the gastrectomy and ERAS alone.
