The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of capecitabine and oxaliplatin (XELOX) with 5-fluorouracil, folinic acid and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX6) for advanced gastric cancer following total gastrectomy. We performed a retrospective study of 148 gastric cancer patients undergoing total gastrectomy combined with adjuvant chemotherapy from January, 2003 to June, 2009. The follow-up lasted until December, 2010. The Chi-square test and Kaplan-Meier methods were employed to compare the adverse events and prognosis. The total 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 95, 80 and 32%, respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.273). Similarly, the total incidence of side effects was similar, but each treatment was associated with unique disturbances. The number of patients developing hand-foot syndrome in the XELOX group was far higher compared to the FOLFOX6 group (P=0.000). By contrast, more patients in the FOLFOX6 group suffered from nausea (P=0.024), vomiting (P=0.029), alopecia (P=0.033) and peripheral phlebitis (P=0.004). The total completion rate of the XELOX group was higher compared to the FOLFOX6 group (P=0.015). No significant difference was found in the prognosis of patients receiving XELOX therapy or FOLFOX6 therapy following total gastrectomy. XELOX was, however, more tolerable for patients with total gastrectomy.
