RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common cancer that coincides with gastric cancer (GC). Although the usefulness of total colonoscopy (TCS) as a CRC screening tool has been reported in preoperative patients with GC, the long-term outcome of patients with synchronous CRC (SCRC) remains unclear. This study aims to clarify the significance of preoperative screening TCS for GC in terms of survival outcomes. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We included 796 patients who underwent preoperative screening TCS for GC. The risk factors, clinicopathological features, and survival outcome of SCRC were examined. Furthermore, the cost-effectiveness was evaluated from the perspective of improving the rates of mortality caused by CRC. RESULTS: SCRC was observed in 43 patients (5.4%). Endoscopic treatment for SCRC was performed on 30 patients. In total, 15 patients underwent surgical resection, including 2 patients requiring additional surgery after endoscopic treatment. Regarding pathological stages, 25 patients had stage 0, 12 patients had stage I, 5 patients had stage II, and 1 patient had stage IIIB disease. The cumulative mortality rates were as follows: GC-related deaths, 12.6%; deaths from cancers other than CRC, 1%; deaths from other causes, 5.5%. No deaths were attributed to SCRC. Comparing the patients who did not undergo TCS, an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio analysis suggested that a screening cost of 5.86 million yen was required to prevent one CRC death. CONCLUSIONS: Curative treatment was possible in all patients with SCRC. No deaths were attributed to SCRC, suggesting that screening TCS for GC is effective.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) tumors are distinct molecular subtypes in gastric cancer. However, a few studies have comprehensively reported the molecular features of MSI-H tumors and their prognostic factors in locally advanced gastric cancer. This study aimed to clarify the molecular features and prognostic factors of locally advanced MSI-H gastric cancer. METHODS: This study included 499 patients with locally advanced gastric cancer who underwent radical gastrectomy. We evaluated the MSI status and compared with previously published whole-exome sequencing, panel sequencing, and gene expression profiling data. Clinicopathological characteristics and molecular profiles were compared between patients with MSI-H and microsatellite stable (MSS) gastric cancer. A subgroup analysis of survival was performed in patients with MSI-H gastric cancer. RESULTS: MSI-H tumors were detected in 79 of 499 patients (15.8%). MSI-H tumors were associated with an increased tumor mutational burden, MLH1 downregulation, CD274 (PD-L1) upregulation, and enrichment of cell cycle pathways. Among patients with MSI-H gastric cancer, the disease-specific survival (DSS) tended to be better in the surgery plus tegafur, gimeracil, and oteracil potassium (S-1) adjuvant chemotherapy group than in the surgery alone group, especially for stage III patients. Furthermore, DSS was better in the T cell-inflamed gene expression signature-high group, and it tended to be worse in the non-solid type poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma group. CONCLUSIONS: The molecular features and prognostic factors of locally advanced MSI-H gastric cancer were clarified. S-1 adjuvant chemotherapy appears to be beneficial, and the T cell-inflamed gene expression signature and histopathological type are prognostic factors in MSI-H tumors.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: A previous report confirmed the safety of laparoscopy-assisted total and proximal gastrectomies (LATG and LAPG) (JCOG1401). This report demonstrates the 5-year relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) after long-term follow-up to confirm the efficacy of these surgical methods as key secondary endpoints for cStage I gastric cancer. METHODS: This study enrolled patients who had histologically proven gastric adenocarcinoma and were diagnosed with clinical T1N0, T1N(+), or T2N0 tumors according to the 14th edition of the Japanese Classification of Gastric Carcinoma (3rd English edition). RESULTS: Between April 2015 and February 2017, 246 patients were enrolled, although one patient was excluded because of misregistration. Meticulous follow-up was continued for > 5 years for each patient, and the data were analyzed in March 2022. The 5-year RFS was 90.0% (95% confidence interval [CI] 85.5-93.2%), and the 5-year OS was 91.2% (95% CI 86.9-94.2%) in all enrolled patients. Grade 3 or 4 late postoperative complications were detected in 12.7% of patients. CONCLUSIONS: This single-arm study showed that the long-term outcomes of LATG/LAPG for cStage I gastric cancer were acceptable, which is considered one of the standard treatments when performed by experienced surgeons.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The prognosis for marginally resectable gastric cancer with extensive lymph node metastasis (ELM) remains unfavorable, even after R0 resection. To assess the safety and efficacy of preoperative docetaxel, oxaliplatin, and S-1 (DOS), we conducted a multicenter phase II trial. METHODS: Eligibility criteria included histologically proven HER2-negative gastric adenocarcinoma with bulky nodal (bulky N) involvement around major branched arteries or para-aortic node (PAN) metastases. Patients received three cycles of docetaxel (40 mg/m2, day 1), oxaliplatin (100 mg/m2, day 1), and S-1 (80-120 mg/body, days 1-14), followed by gastrectomy with D2 plus PAN dissection. Subsequently, patients underwent postoperative chemotherapy with S-1 for 1 year. The primary endpoint was major (grade ≥ 2a) pathological response rate (pRR) according to the Japanese Classification of Gastric Carcinoma criteria. RESULTS: Between October 2018 and March 2022, 47 patients (bulky N, 20; PAN, 17; both, 10) were enrolled in the trial. One patient was ineligible. Another declined any protocol treatments before initiation. Among the 45 eligible patients who initiated DOS chemotherapy, 44 (98%) completed 3 cycles and 42 (93%) underwent R0 resection. Major pRR and pathological complete response rates among the 46 eligible patients, including the patient who declined treatment, were 57% (26/46) and 24% (11/46), respectively. Common grade 3 or 4 toxicities were neutropenia (24%), anorexia (16%), febrile neutropenia (9%), and diarrhea (9%). No treatment-related deaths occurred. CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative chemotherapy with DOS yielded favorable pathological responses with an acceptable toxicity profile. This multimodal approach is highly promising for treating gastric cancer with ELM.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: This randomized phase II study explored the superiority of trastuzumab plus S-1 plus cisplatin (SP) over SP alone as neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for HER2-positive resectable gastric cancer with extensive lymph node metastasis. METHODS: Eligible patients with HER2-positive gastric or esophagogastric junction cancer and extensive lymph node metastasis were randomized to receive three or four courses of preoperative chemotherapy with SP (arm A) or SP plus trastuzumab (arm B). Following gastrectomy, adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 was administered for 1 year in both arms. The primary endpoint was overall survival, and the sample size was 130 patients in total. The trial is registered with the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials, jRCTs031180006. RESULTS: This report elucidates the early endpoints, including pathological findings and safety. The study was terminated early due to slow patient accruals. In total, 46 patients were allocated to arm A (n = 22) and arm B (n = 24). NAC was completed in 20 patients (91%) in arm A and 23 patients (96%) in arm B, with similar incidences of grade 3-4 hematological and non-hematological adverse events. Objective response rates were 50% in arm A and 84% in arm B (p = 0·065). %R0 resection rates were 91% and 92%, and pathological response rates (≥ grade 1b in Japanese classification) were 23% and 50% (p = 0·072) in resected patients, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Trastuzumab can be safely added to platinum-containing doublet chemotherapy as NAC, and it has the potential to contribute to higher antitumor activity against locally advanced, HER2-positive gastric or esophagogastric junction cancer with extensive nodal metastasis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 for 1 year (corresponding to eight courses) is the standard treatment for pathological stage II gastric cancer. The phase III trial (JCOG1104) investigating the non-inferiority of four courses of S-1 to eight courses was terminated due to futility at the first interim analysis. To confirm the primary results, we reported the results after a 5-years follow-up in JCOG1104. METHODS: Patients histologically diagnosed with stage II gastric cancer after radical gastrectomy were randomly assigned to receive S-1 for eight or four courses. In detail, 80 mg/m2/day S-1 was administered for 4 weeks followed by a 2-week rest as a single course. RESULTS: Between February 16, 2012, and March 19, 2017, 590 patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to 8-course (295 patients) and 4-course (295 patients) regimens. After a 5-years follow-up, the relapse-free survival at 3 years was 92.2% for the 8-course arm and 90.1% for the 4-course arm, and that at 5 years was 87.7% for the 8-course arm and 85.6% for the 4-course arm (hazard ratio 1.265, 95% CI 0.846-1.892). The overall survival at 3 years was 94.9% for the 8-course arm, 93.2% for the 4-course arm, and that at 5 years was 89.7% for the 8-course arm, and 88.6% for the 4-course arm (HR 1.121, 95% CI 0.719-1.749). CONCLUSIONS: The survival of the four-course arm was slightly but consistently inferior to that of the eight-course arm. Eight-course S-1 should thus remain the standard adjuvant chemotherapy for pathological stage II gastric cancer.

RESUMO

Treatment strategies for oesophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma have not been standardized despite its poor prognosis due to differences in the incidence rates between Western countries and Asia. This randomized Phase II/III trial was initiated in June 2023 to determine which neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen, docetaxel, oxaliplatin and S-1 or fluorouracil, oxaliplatin and docetaxel, is a more promising treatment in Phase II and confirm the superiority of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with docetaxel, oxaliplatin and S-1 or fluorouracil, oxaliplatin and docetaxel followed by surgery and postoperative chemotherapy over upfront surgery and postoperative chemotherapy in terms of overall survival in patients with Clinical Stage III or IVA oesophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma in Phase III. A total of 460 patients, including 150 patients in Phase II and 310 patients in Phase III, are planned to be enrolled from 85 hospitals in Japan over 5 years. This trial has been registered in the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials as jRCTs031230182 (https://jrct.niph.go.jp/latest-detail/jRCTs031230182).

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have revealed that sarcopenia is associated with postoperative complications and poor prognosis. Although neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a promising treatment for gastric cancer, its toxicity may lead to the loss of skeletal muscle mass. This study investigates the changes in skeletal muscle mass during neoadjuvant chemotherapy and its clinical impact on patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. METHODS: Fifty patients who completed two courses of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery were included. Skeletal muscle mass was measured using computed tomography images before and after chemotherapy. The proportion of skeletal muscle mass change (%SMC) during neoadjuvant chemotherapy and its cutoff value was explored using the receiver operating characteristic for the overall survival of patients undergoing R0 resection. Risk factors of skeletal muscle mass loss were also evaluated. RESULTS: Overall, 64% of patients had skeletal muscle mass loss during neoadjuvant chemotherapy (median %SMC -3.4%; range: -18.9% to 10.3%). Multivariable analysis identified older age (≥70 years) as an independent predictor of skeletal muscle mass loss (mean [95% confidence interval]: -4.70% [-8.83 to -0.58], p = 0.026). Among 43 patients undergoing R0 resection, %SMC <-6.9% was an independent poor prognostic factor for overall survival (hazard ratio, 11.53; 95% confidence interval, 2.78-47.80) and relapse-free survival (hazard ratio 4.54, 95% confidence interval 1.50-13.81). CONCLUSIONS: Skeletal muscle mass loss occurs frequently during neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced gastric cancer and could adversely affect survival outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer (GC) has been applied more frequently worldwide but is still controversial for patients with serosal invasion (T4a). This study compared short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic distal radical gastrectomy (LDG) with open distal gastrectomy (ODG) for T4a GC. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We retrospectively studied 472 patients with T4a gastric adenocarcinoma in the lower or middle third of the stomach: 231 underwent LDG and 241 underwent ODG between 2013 and 2020. Short-term outcomes included operative characteristics and complications. Long-term outcomes included overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis was used to adjust for imbalances in baseline characteristics between groups. RESULTS: The PSM strategy resulted in 294 patients (147 in each group). The LDG group had a significantly longer operating time (mean: 200 vs 190 min, p = 0.001) but reduced blood loss (mean: 50 vs 100 ml, p = 0.001). The LDG group had a higher rate of any postoperative complication (23.1% vs 12.2%, p = 0.021) but most were classified as grades I-II according to Clavien-Dindo classification. Grade III-V complications were similar between groups. Five-year OS was 69% versus 60% (p = 0.109) and 5-year DFS was 58% vs 53% (p = 0.3) in LDG and ODG groups, respectively. For tumor size < 5 cm, LDG was better in reduction of blood loss, postoperative hospital length of stay, and OS. CONCLUSIONS: LDG is feasible and safe for patients with T4a GC and is comparable to ODG regarding short- and long-term outcomes. Furthermore, LDG can be a favorable option for T4a GC smaller than 5 cm.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) is considered a standard treatment for clinical stage I gastric cancer. Nevertheless, LG has some drawbacks, such as motion restriction and difficulties in spatial perception. Robot-assisted gastrectomy (RG) overcomes these drawbacks by using articulated forceps, tremor-filtering capability, and high-resolution three-dimensional imaging, and it is expected to enable more precise and safer procedures than LG for gastric cancer. However, robust evidence based on a large-scale randomized study is lacking. METHODS: We are performing a randomized controlled phase III study to investigate the superiority of RG over LG for clinical T1-2N0-2 gastric cancer in terms of safety. In total, 1,040 patients are planned to be enrolled from 46 Japanese institutions over 5 years. The primary endpoint is the incidence of postoperative intra-abdominal infectious complications, including anastomotic leakage, pancreatic fistula, and intra-abdominal abscess of Clavien-Dindo (CD) grade ≥ II. The secondary endpoints are the incidence of all CD grade ≥ II and ≥ IIIA postoperative complications, the incidence of CD grade ≥ IIIA postoperative intra-abdominal infectious complications, relapse-free survival, overall survival, the proportion of RG completion, the proportion of LG completion, the proportion of conversion to open surgery, the proportion of operation-related death, and short-term surgical outcomes. The Japan Clinical Oncology Group Protocol Review Committee approved this study protocol in January 2020. Approval from the institutional review board was obtained before starting patient enrollment in each institution. Patient enrollment began in March 2020. We revised the protocol to expand the eligibility criteria to T1-4aN0-3 in July 2022 based on the results of randomized trials of LG demonstrating non-inferiority of LG to open surgery for survival outcomes in advanced gastric cancer. DISCUSSION: This is the first multicenter randomized controlled trial to confirm the superiority of RG over LG in terms of safety. This study will demonstrate whether RG is superior for gastric cancer. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The protocol of JCOG1907 was registered in the UMIN Clinical Trials Registry as UMIN000039825 ( http://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/index.htm ). Date of Registration: March 16, 2020. Date of First Participant Enrollment: April 1, 2020.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples acquired and preserved adequately are expected to faithfully maintain tumor characteristics. Endoscopic biopsy tissues represent an attractive resource for identifying predictive biomarkers to evaluate pretreatment responses of patients with advanced gastric cancer (GC). However, whether genomic profiles obtained through next-generation sequencing (NGS) using biopsy samples match well with those gained from surgical FFPE samples remains a concern. METHODS: We collected 50 FFPE samples (26 biopsies and 24 surgical samples) from patients with GC who participated in phase III clinical trial JCOG1509. The quality and quantity of FFPE samples were determined for deep sequencing using NGS. We queried a 435-gene panel CANCERPLEX-JP to generate comprehensive genomic profiling data including the tumor mutation burden (TMB). RESULTS: The median DNA yields and NGS success rates of biopsy samples compared with surgical samples were 879 ng and 80.8% vs 8523 ng and 100%, respectively. Epstein-Barr virus and microsatellite instability-high were detected in 9.5% of biopsy samples. Comparing the genomic profiles of 18 paired samples for which NGS data were available, we detected identical somatic mutations in paired biopsy and surgical samples (kappa coefficient, 0.8692). TMB positively correlated between paired biopsy and surgical samples (correlation coefficient, 0.6911). CONCLUSIONS: NGS is applicable to the analysis of FFPE samples of GC acquired by the endoscopic biopsy, and the data were highly concordant with those obtained from surgical specimens of the same patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Robotic gastrectomy (RG) using the da Vinci Surgical System for gastric cancer was approved for national medical insurance coverage in Japan in April 2018, and its number has been rapidly increasing since then. AIM: We reviewed and compared current evidence on RG and conventional laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) to identify the differences in surgical outcomes. METHODS: Three independent reviewers systematically reviewed the data collected from a comprehensive literature search by an independent organization, focusing on the following nine endpoints: mortality, morbidity, operative time, estimated blood loss volume, length of postoperative hospital stay, long-term oncologic outcome, quality of life, learning curve, and cost. RESULTS: Compared to LG, RG has lower intraoperative blood loss volume, shorter length of hospital stay, and shorter learning curve, but both procedures have similar mortality. Contrarily, its disadvantages include longer procedural time and higher costs. Although the morbidity rate and long-term outcomes are almost comparable, RG showed superior potentials. Currently, the outcomes of RG are considered comparable to or better than LG. CONCLUSION: RG might be applicable to all gastric cancer patients who fulfill the indication of LG at institutions that meet specific criteria and are approved to claim the National Health Insurance costs for the use of the surgical robot in Japan.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The Cancer-VTE Registry was a large-scale, multicenter, prospective registry designed to investigate real-world data on venous thromboembolism (VTE) incidence and risk factors in adult Japanese patients with solid tumors. This pre-specified subgroup analysis aimed to estimate the incidence of VTE, including VTE types other than symptomatic VTE, and identify risk factors of VTE in stomach cancer from the Cancer-VTE Registry. METHODS: Stage II-IV stomach cancer patients who planned to initiate cancer therapy and underwent VTE screening within 2 months before registration were enrolled. RESULTS: Of 1,896 patients enrolled, 131 (6.9%) had VTE at baseline, but 96.2% were asymptomatic. Female sex, age ≥ 65 years, VTE history, and D-dimer > 1.2 µg/mL were independent risk factors of VTE at baseline. Notably, patients with D-dimer > 1.2 µg/mL at the time of cancer diagnosis had an approximately 20-fold risk of VTE. During follow-up, event incidences were symptomatic VTE, 0.3%; incidental VTE requiring treatment, 1.1%; composite VTE, 1.4%; bleeding, 1.6%; cerebral infarction/transient ischemic attack/systemic embolic events, 0.7%; and all-cause death, 15.0%. The incidence of all-cause death was higher in patients with VTE vs without VTE at baseline (adjusted hazard ratio 1.67; 95% confidence interval 1.21-2.32; p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS: VTE prevalence at the time of cancer diagnosis was not negligible and was extremely high when the patients had high D-dimer. VTE screening by D-dimer before starting cancer treatment is advisable, even for asymptomatic patients, regardless of whether the patient is undergoing surgery or chemotherapy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Patients with poorly cohesive gastric carcinoma (PCC) are known to have poor survival. However, detailed molecular biology of PCC has not been elucidated, except for mutations in CDH1 and RHOA. Additionally, the molecular profiles of signet-ring cell carcinoma (SRC) have not been fully investigated. We aimed to investigate the association between molecular profiles and survival in PCC and PCC subtypes. METHODS: The present study included 455 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma underwent radical gastrectomy. Whole-exome sequencing and gene expression profiling were conducted. Patients were classified according to the WHO classification as PCC or non-PCC, with PCC being further classified into SRC, combined, and PCC not-otherwise-specified (NOS). Clinicopathological factors and survival were compared with molecular profiles. RESULTS: Of the patients, 159 were classified with PCC, while 296 were classified with non-PCC. Among PCC, 44 were classified with SRC, 64 with combined, and 51 with PCC-NOS. Mutations in CDH1 and RHOA were remarkably more frequent in PCC than in non-PCC. PCC had worse overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) compared to non-PCC. For PCC, the SRC group had good OS and DSS, whereas PCC-NOS classification with CDH1 mutations was associated with extremely poor survival. In the PCC-NOS and combined groups, patients with mutations in the extracellular domain 1 of CDH1 had poor survival. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that PCC has poorer survival than non-PCC. Accumulation of CDH1 and RHOA mutations are unique profiles in PCC. Among PCC, CDH1 mutations may play a crucial role in the survival of non-SRC PCC.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Surgical resection of oligo-metastasis in gastric cancer (GC) is weakly recommended for patients without other incurable factors in the Japanese GC Treatment Guidelines. While post-operative chemotherapy is the standard treatment in patients with stage II or III GC, its efficacy for resected stage IV GC is unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of post-operative chemotherapy after curative resection of GC with oligo-metastasis. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with GC who were diagnosed with synchronous oligo-metastasis at 20 institutions in Japan between 2007 and 2012. The selection criteria were: adenocarcinoma, stage IV with oligo-metastasis at liver or lymph node without other distant metastasis, curative resection including synchronous oligo-metastasis, and no prior treatment of GC before surgery. RESULTS: A total of 110 patients were collected. Of the 94 eligible patients, 84 underwent gastrectomy with surgical resection of oligo-metastasis (39 [41%] liver metastasis and 55, [59%] distant lymph node metastasis), followed by post-operative chemotherapy with S-1 (S1: n = 55), S1 plus cisplatin (CS: n = 22), or Others (n = 7). Moreover, 10 patients did not receive post-operative chemotherapy (Non-Cx). The median overall survival (OS) was 35.2 and 11.1 months in the post-operative chemotherapy and Non-Cx groups (hazard ratio, 3.56; 95% confidence interval, 1.74-7.30; p < 0.001), respectively. In multivariable analysis, Non-Cx and age over 70 years were identified as poor prognostic factors for OS (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Curative resection followed by post-operative chemotherapy in patients with GC with synchronous oligo-metastasis showed favorable survival.

RESUMO

Macroscopic type 4 and large type 3 gastric cancer, mostly overlapping with scirrhous or linitis plastica type, exhibit a highly invasive nature and show unfavorable prognosis after curative surgery, even with adjuvant chemotherapy. A randomized phase III trial (JCOG0501) failed to demonstrate a survival advantage of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 plus cisplatin for this population. The current authors initiated a randomized phase II study comparing neoadjuvant chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil/oxaliplatin/docetaxel versus docetaxel/oxaliplatin/S-1 for type 4 and large type 3 gastric cancer. 76 patients are planned to be enrolled over two years. The primary end point is the proportion of patients with a pathological response (grade 1b or higher) and secondary end points include overall survival and adverse events. Clinical Trial Registration: jRCTs031230231 (rctportal.niph.go.jp).

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Late complications following gastric cancer surgery, including postgastrectomy syndromes, are complex problems requiring a solution. Reported risk factors for developing late complications include surgery-related factors, such as the surgical approach and the extent of resection and reconstruction. However, this has not been assessed in a prospective study with a large sample size. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate associations between surgery-related factors and the development of late complications. Data from the JCOG0912 trial were used. It compared laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) to open distal gastrectomy (ODG) in clinical stage I gastric cancer patients. METHODS: This study included 881/921 patients enrolled in the JCOG0912 trial. The incidence of late complications was compared between the ODG and the LADG arms. In addition, associations between surgery-related factors and the development of late complications were assessed by multivariable analyses using the proportional odds model to identify relevant risk factors. RESULTS: There was no difference in the type or number of patients with late complications between the LADG and the ODG arms. The multivariable analysis for each late complication revealed that the Billroth-I reconstruction (vs. R-en-Y or Billroth-II) had a lower risk of cholecystitis [odds ratio (OR) 0.187, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.039-0.905, P = 0.037] or ileus (OR 0.116, 95%CI 0.033-0.406, P < 0.001), and pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (vs. R-en-Y or Billroth-II) had a higher risk of reflux esophagitis (OR 3.348, 95% CI 1.371-8.176, P = 0.008). The surgical approach was not a risk factor for any late complications. CONCLUSION: Differences in surgical approaches did not constitute a risk for developing late complications after gastrectomy. Billroth-I reconstruction reduced the risk of ileus and cholecystitis, but pylorus-preserving gastrectomy carried a risk for reflux esophagitis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Oncological benefits of robotic gastrectomy (RG) remain unclear. We aimed to determine and compare the 3-year outcomes of RG and laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) for the treatment of gastric cancer. METHODS: This was a multi-institutional retrospective study of patients who prospectively underwent RG in a previous study (UMIN000015388) and historical controls who underwent LG. Operable patients with cStage I/II primary gastric cancer were enrolled. The inverse probability of treatment weighting method based on propensity scores was used to balance patient demographic factors and surgeon volume between the RG and LG groups. The primary outcome measure was the 3-year overall survival rate (3yOS). RESULTS: Of the 1,127 patients in the previous study, 326 and 752 patients in the RG and LG groups, respectively, completed the study. The standardized difference of all confounding factors was reduced to 0.09 or less after weighting. In the weighted population, 3yOS was 96.3% and 89.6% in the RG and LG groups, respectively (hazard ratio [HR] 0.34 [0.15, 0.76]; p = 0.009), whereas there was no difference in 3-year recurrence-free survival rate (3yRFS) between the two groups (HR 0.58 [0.32, 1.05]; p = 0.073). Sub-analyses showed that RG improved 3yOS (HR 0.05 [0.01, 0.38]; p = 0.004) and 3yRFS (HR 0.05 [0.01, 0.34]; p = 0.003) in patients with pStage IA disease. Recurrence rates and patterns were similar between the RG and LG groups. RG did not improve the morbidity rate, however, it attenuated some of the adverse events, including anastomotic leakage and intra-abdominal abscess. RG improved estimated blood loss and duration of postoperative hospitalization. CONCLUSION: This study showed surgical and oncological safety of RG for cStage I/II gastric cancer considering the 3-year outcomes, compared with those of LG.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Splenectomy for proximal gastric cancer was found to offer no survival benefit in a randomized trial clarifying the role of splenectomy (JCOG0110 study). Although many studies have explored risk factors for morbidities following total gastrectomy, none have assessed the risk factors for postoperative complications in spleen-preserving total gastrectomy. METHODS: Using data from 505 patients enrolled in a previous randomized trial, risk factors for postoperative complications were identified by multivariable logistic regression analysis. Then, the risk factors were assessed separately between splenectomy and spleen-preserving total gastrectomy. RESULTS: Postoperative complications were identified in 119 patients (23.6%) and were more common following splenectomy than following spleen-preserving surgery (30.7% and 16.1%, respectively, p < 0.01). Multivariable analysis revealed that age ≥65 years (p = 0.032), body mass index ≥25 (p = 0.003), and blood loss ≥350 (p = 0.019) were independent risk factors for postoperative complications in the entire cohort. Among them, only body mass index was a significant independent risk factor for complications in both spleen preservation (p = 0.047) and splenectomy groups (p = 0.017). CONCLUSION: Risk factors for postoperative complications were essentially the same between splenectomy and spleen preservation. Being overweight increased the risk of postoperative complications.

RESUMO

Robotic gastrectomy had been firstly performed in Japan. The first case series in Japan had been reported by Prof. Uyama of Fujita Medical University in 2011, at which time the double bipolar method, the current standard procedure in Japan, had already been established. Subsequently, a prospective cohort study using laparoscopic gastrectomy as a historical control was conducted under advanced medical care to establish evidence of robotic gastrectomy. As a result, robotic gastrectomy was proven to be safer than laparoscopic gastrectomy, and was approved by health insurance. Furthermore, a survival analysis has showed that overall survival was significantly better in robotic gastrectomy than in laparoscopic gastrectomy, and additional cost for robotic surgery has been covered by insurance. The guidelines of the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association and the Japanese Society for Endoscopic Surgery weakly recommend the use of robotic surgery for cStage Ⅰ or cStage Ⅰ/Ⅱgastric cancer. In order to establish more solid evidence for robotic gastrectomy randomized controlled trials are currently being conducted. Future issues will be the establishment of evidence for robotic surgery and the safe introduction of new robots. Revision of facility standard should also be needed since the number of gastrectomy has been dramatically decreased in Japan.
