Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of postoperative intraperitoneal hyperthermic perfusion chemotherapy (IHPC) for advanced gastric cancer, so as to provide references for clinical practice and study. Methods The following databases including The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, VIP and WanFang were searched on computer, and other searches were also performed to collect all relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on postoperative IHPC versus intravenous chemotherapy alone (IC) for advanced gastric cancer. The quality of the included studies was assessed according to Cochrane Handbook 5.1 for Systematic Review, and Meta-analysis was conducted by using RevMan 5.1 software. Results A total of 18 RCTs involving 2299 patients were included. The results of meta-analyses showed that: a) Efficacy evaluation: There were significant differences between the IHPC group and the IC group in 1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year survival rate, 3- and 5-year recurrence rate, and 3- and 5-year distant metastasis rate; the OR value and 95%CI were 1.88 (1.49, 2.39), 2.45 (1.64, 3.67), 2.29 (1.92, 2.73), 2.17 (1.70, 2.76), 0.39 (0.29, 0.52), 0.54 (0.40, 0.72), 0.55 (0.38, 0.78), 0.58 (0.42, 0.81), respectively; b) Safety evaluation: There were significant differences between the IHPC group and the IC group in the incidence of abdominal pain, abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting; the OR value and 95%CI were 2.20 (1.58, 3.07), 7.00 (2.67, 18.36), 0.65 (0.45, 0.95), respectively. But there were no significant differences between the IHPC group and the IC group in the incidence of alopecia, ileus, bone marrow inhibition, and hepatic lesion. Conclusion Compared with IC, postoperative IHPC+IC can improve survival rate and reduce the recurrence and distant metastasis rate; additionally, it is safe and feasible, so it is recommended that the detailed condition of patients should be taken into consideration when the postoperative IHPC+IC therapy is applied to clinic.
Objective To observe the effect of cisplatin in bletilla hyacinthine particle chemotherapy combined with 125I brachytherapy on short-and long-term outcomes and the toxic and side effects in advanced gastric cancer. Methods One hundred seventy-six patients with stage Ⅱ or stage Ⅲ advanced gastric cancer underwent curative surgical resection were included in this study. They were randomly divided into brachytherapy and chemotherapy group (n=48), intraperitoneal chemotherapy group (n=32) and intravenous chemotherapy group (n=48), and other patients who abandoned radiotherapy and chemotherapy and signed informed consent form by themselves were considered as control group (n=48). The short-and long-term outcomes and the toxic and side effects were observed and the survival of all patients was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method and Log-Rank test. Results For short-term outcomes, the total effective rate in 4 groups were 95.83%, 71.88%, 64.58% and 52.08% respectively, and the difference was significant (Plt;0.05). For long-term outcomes, the 3 -and 5-year mortality rate was 37.50% and 56.30%, and 5-year median survival time was (14±4.51) months (95%CI: 14.419-4.512) in brachytherapy and chemotherapy group patients. The 3- and 5-year mortality rate was 78.12%and 93.75%and 5year median survival time was (10.6±1.13) months (95%CI: 10.620-1.163) in intraperitoneal chemotherapy group patients. The 3-and 5-year mortality rate was 79.21%and 95.80%and 5-year median survival time was (11±3.10) months (95%CI: 11.130-3.162) in intravenous chemotherapy group patients. The 3-and 5-year mortality rate was 87.50%and 95.83% and 5-year median survival time was (9±2.30) months (95%CI: 10.024-1.180) in control group patients. Compared with the vein chemotherapy group, the short distance puts the chemotherapy group disgusting vomit, the marrow to suppress, the liver function harm, the kidney function harm formation rate to reduce obviously (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Cisplatin in bletilla hyacinthine particle chemotherapy combined with 125I brachytherapy can reduce the toxic and side effects of drugs and prolong survival time of patients with advanced gastric cancer.

ObjectiveTo summarized the clinical experience on laparoscopic radical surgery in patients with advanced distal gastric cancer. MethodsThe clinical data of 26 patients with advanced distant gastric cancer undergoing laparoscopic gastrectomy were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsLaparoscopic distal gastrectomy was performed successfully in all patients. The operation time was (283.2±27.6) min (270-450 min) and the blood loss was (178.4±67.4) ml (80-350 ml). The time of gastrointestinal function recovery was (2.8±1.2) d (2-4 d), out of bed activity time was (1.5±0.4) d (1-3 d) and liquid diet feeding was (3.5±1.4) d (3-4 d). The hospital stay was (10.0±2.6) d (7-13 d). The number of harvested lymph nodes was 11 to 34 (17.8±7.3). The distance from proximal surgical margin to tumor was (7.0±2.1) cm (5-12 cm) and the distance from distal surgical margin to tumor was (5.5±1.8) cm (4-8 cm), thus surgical margins were negative in all samples. All patients were followed up for 3-48 months (mean 18.5 months), two patients with poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma died of extensive metastasis in 13 and 18 months, respectively, and other patients survived well. ConclusionsLaparoscopic radical gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy for advanced gastric cancer is safe and feasible. However, the advantage of laparoscopic technique over the conventional open surgery requires further study.
Objective To explore the feasibility, safety, efficacy and mechanism of intraoperative regional chemotherapy of advanced gastric cancer.Methods The related literatures were reviewed and analyzed. Results Compared with systemic chemotherapy, intraoperative regional chemotherapy of advanced gastric cancer could increase blood drug concentration of cancerous tissue, reduce the systemic toxic side effects, increase survival rate and improve the quality of life. Conclusion Intraoperative regional chemotherapy, as an adjuvant treatment of advanced gastric cancer, has been gradually applied to clinic because of the definite curative effect, which is worth popularizing. However, it needs systemic researches and accumulation of cases.
Objective To investigate the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy for distant gastric cancer. Methods All 18 patients with distant gastric cancer receiving laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy were analyzed. Results Laparoscopic-assisted distal gastrectomy was performed successfully in all patients. The mean operation time was (291.33±19.61) min. The mean blood loss was (151.32±71.78) ml. The mean numbers of harvested lymph node were 14.57±3.11. The mean time of gastrointestinal function recovery was (3.46±0.93) d, the mean out of bed activity time was (1.75±0.45) d. All patients were followed up for 1-24 months, mean 11 months. No local recurrence, trocar implant or distant metastasis happened. Conclusion Laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy is a feasible and safe surgical procedure combined with minimal trauma and fast recovery.
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of the combination of S-1 and oxaliplatin in the first-line chemotherapy of patients with advanced gastric cancer. Methods From March 2012 to April 2013, 57 patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University were enrolled in this study. Oxaliplatin was administered at 130 mg/m2 on day 1, while S-1 was administered orally (< 1.25 m2: 40 mg twice per day; 1.25-1.50 m2: 50 mg twice per day; > 1.50 m2: 60 mg twice per day) for 14 days. The response was evaluated every two chemotherapy cycles. Results The objective response rate was 52.6%, and the disease control rate was 84.2%. The median time to progression was 5.8 months, and the median survival time was 13.5 months. The major grade 3/4 hematological toxic effects were neutropenia (12.3%) and thrombocytope nia (12.3%), and the grade 3/4 non-hematological toxic effects were vomiting, fatigue and sensory neuropathy. The rate of clinical benefit response was 71.9% (41/57). Conclusion The regimen of oxaliplatin and S-1 shows precise efficacy and good tolerance against advanced gastric cancer, and it is worthy of promotion and application in the future.
