Core Tip	This study included patients with stage II-III gastric cancer who received six cycles of the S-1 and oxaliplatin chemotherapy regimen postoperatively, measured serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) levels, and conducted a 1-year follow-up to explore the predictive value of these markers for cancer recurrence, chemotherapy-related gastrointestinal adverse reactions, and recurrence-free survival. CEA and CA19-9 could be reliable tools for guiding individualized treatment plans in patients with gastric cancer, highlighting their practical clinical value.
