Core Tip |
Systemic chemotherapy has proven to be an important treatment for advanced gastric cancer patients. A combination regimen containing 5-fluorouracil is most commonly used worldwide. S-1 and capecitabine are both oral fluoropyrimidine carbamates, and have proven to be effective for the treatment of gastric cancer patients. This is the first meta-analysis to systematically compare the effects between S-1 and capecitabine against gastric cancer in order to better understand the efficacy, safety, and feasibility of these anticancer drugs. The results may contribute to better treatment and quality of life for patients with advanced gastric cancer. |
