Patients with stage ⅠB-ⅢC GC, who received adjuvant SOX treatment were matched by propensity scores with those who underwent surgery alone and those who conducted capecitabine plus oxaliplatin(XELOX) regimen. Disease-free survival(DFS) and overall survival(OS) were compared among the groups. In addition, adverse events in SOX patients were analyzed.Of 1944 GC patients who underwent D2 dissection, 867 were included for analysis. One hundred and seventeen patients treated with SOX were matched to 234 patients who conducted surgery alone. Fifty-seven patients treated with SOX were matched to 57 patients who received XELOX. The estimated five-year DFS was 57.5% in the adjuvant SOX group which was higher than that(44.6%) in the surgery alone group(P = 0.001); and the estimated five-year OS was 68.3% which was higher than that(45.8%) of surgery alone group(P < 0.001). Survival benefit was also revealed in stage III and > 60 years old subgroups(P < 0.001 and P = 0.015, respectively). Compared with XELOX regimen, SOX showed no significant difference in DFS(P = 0.340) and OS(P = 0.361). The most common ≥ 3 grade adverse events of SOX regimen were neutropenia(22.6%), leukopenia(8.9%) and thrombocytopenia(5.6%).CONCLUSION Compared with surgery alone, SOX regimen significantly improves the long-term survival and has acceptable toxicity in patients with stage ⅠB-ⅢC GC after D2 dissection. It may be a novel adjuvant chemotherapy regimen in GC patients.展开更多
