| Core Tip |
We identified age ≥ 60 years, carcinoembryonic antigen ≥ 5.0 μg/L, metastatic lymph node ratio ≥ 0.5 and time interval (TI) from surgery to initiation of adjuvant chemotherapy are independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence. Crucially, our findings demonstrate that initiating adjuvant chemotherapy within 6 weeks of surgery significantly improves disease-free survival in stage IIIC patients. Notably, the S-1 plus oxaliplatin regimen exhibits significant time-sensitivity, with an optimal window of within 6 weeks. Whereas the capecitabine plus oxaliplatin regimen does not. These insights provide a rationale for optimizing individualized therapeutic strategies for this high-risk subgroup. |
