ABSTRACT: Purpose: Several studies have shown that fluoropyrimidine plus oxaliplatin (SOX) is non-inferior to fluoropyrimidine plus cisplatin as first-line chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer. We investigated retrospectively the choice of second-line regimen, along with the proportion and feasibility of paclitaxel-containing regimen, in the subsequent treatment of patients with advanced gastric cancer treated with SOX as first-line chemotherapy. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the impact of oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy on both the choice of subsequent regimens and feasibility of subsequent chemotherapy with paclitaxel, focusing on patients with advanced gastric cancer who received S-1 plus oxaliplatin as first-line chemotherapy. Results: Twenty-seven from a total of 31 patients enrolled into the phase 2 and phase 3 study assessing S-1 plus oxaliplatin were analyzed (4 patients were deemed ineligible). Among 24 patients that had received second-line treatment, paclitaxel was not selected in 2 patients due to oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy. Paclitaxel was selected as second-line chemotherapy in 16 patients, as third-line chemotherapy in 6 patients and fourth-line chemotherapy in one patient. Severity of sensory neuropathy was grade 0/1/2/3 in 11/10/2/0 patients, respectively, immediately before treatment with paclitaxel, while the worst toxicity profile during paclitaxel treatment was grade 0/1/2/3 in 7/13/1/2 patients, respectively. Although there were no patients requiring dose reductions of paclitaxel due to neuropathy, 2 patients discontinued paclitaxel use due to grade 3 sensory neuropathy after 4 or 8 administrations of paclitaxel. Conclusion: Oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy during first-line chemotherapy may affect the choice and feasibility of subsequent chemotherapy with paclitaxel in advanced gastric cancer patients.
