Abstract

We evaluated the efficacy and safety of the modified FOLFOX6 (mFOLFOX6) regimen as a neoadjuvant chemotherapy in gastric cancer patients. Seventy-three patients with T2-T4 or N+ were enroled. Preoperative chemotherapy consisted of three cycles of mFOLFOX6. The primary end points were the response rate and the R0 resection rate. Prognostic factors for overall survival (OS) were investigated using univariate and multivariate analyses. Sixty-seven (91.8%) patients completed 3 cycles, with grade 3-4 toxicity arising in 33.0%. The radiology response rate was 45.8%. Sixty-seven (91.8%) patients receiving radical surgery showed different levels of histological regression of the primary tumour, with a ⩾50% regression rate of 49.2%. ypTNM stage (HR 4.045, 95% CI 1.429-11.446) and tumours of diffuse and mixed type (HR 9.963, 95% CI 1.937-51.235; HR 8.890, 95% CI 1.157-68.323, respectively) were significantly associated with OS. The pathologic regression rate (GHR; ⩾2/3/<2/3, ⩾50%/<50%) was statistically significantly associated with OS according to a univariate analysis. Perioperative mFOLFOX6 was a tolerable and effective regimen for gastric cancer. The ypTNM stage was an independent predictor of survival. GHR ⩾50%/<50% could be used as a surrogate marker for selecting a postoperative chemotherapy regimen.British Journal of Cancer advance online publication 12 May 2016; doi:10.1038/bjc.2016.126 www.bjcancer.com.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 13. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 June 2023.
All research outputs
#2,356,876
of 23,371,053 outputs
Outputs from British Journal of Cancer
#1,296
of 10,571 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#40,645
of 313,151 outputs
Outputs of similar age from British Journal of Cancer
#23
of 116 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,371,053 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 89th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 10,571 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.7. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 313,151 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 116 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
