Capecitabine, 5-fluorouracil and S-1 based regimens for previously untreated advanced oesophagogastric cancer: A network meta-analysis

Abstract: As evidence is inconsistent and based on either isolated Asian or Western studies, we conducted a network meta-analysis (NMA) to examine efficacy and safety of 5-FU (5-fluorouracil), capecitabine and S-1-based first-line treatment of advanced esophagogastric cancer in Asian and Western patients. Medline, EMBASE, CENTRAL and conferences ASCO and ESMO were searched up to January 2016 for randomized-controlled-trials comparing 5-FU, capecitabine or S-1-based regimens with equal chemotherapy backbones.

“…12 Both capecitabine and S-1, which are oral fluoropyrimidines, have been proposed as substitutes for continuous infusion of 5-FU because they are more convenient and have lower risks. 13,14 The Japanese ACTS-GC trial showed that adjuvant S-1 monotherapy could improve relapse-free survival (RFS) and OS rates. 12 As it is hard to complete a 1-year course of adjuvant S-1 monotherapy, it is difficult to achieve satisfactory clinical expectations; therefore, it is essential to investigate the efficacy of S-1 combined with oxaliplatin as adjuvant treatment for GC.…”

“…Several studies have attempted to construct a graphical presentation format (e.g., bar charts and stream plots) to aid information provision regarding toxicity profiles [5]. However, the currently available graphical methods to present toxicities are hard to interpret by physicians because of the lack of relevant data, such as number of participants, trials and confidence intervals in these presentations [6]. Furthermore, most illustrations of toxicity that are available represent the adverse events of a single study.…”

“…In 2011, a third fluoropyrimidine option, Teysuno ® , was approved for use in Europe in combination with cisplatin for patients with advanced esophagogastric adenocarcinoma [ 7 ]. Teysuno ® , also known worldwide under the International Nonproprietary Name S-1, is a combination of three drugs, tegafur (a 5-FU prodrug), gimeracil (a dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase inhibitor), and oteracil (an orotate phosphoribosyl transferase inhibitor) in a formulation designed to provide effective plasma concentrations of 5-FU while reducing the well-known toxicities of 5-FU and capecitabine [e.g., hematological effects, gastrointestinal toxicity, and hand-foot syndrome (HFS)] [ 8 , 9 ].…”

“…In a network analysis of clinical trials of 5-FU, capecitabine, and S-1 in previously untreated esophagogastric adenocarcinoma, patients receiving S-1 had similar overall survival and progression-free survival compared to those receiving intravenous (IV) 5-FU or oral capecitabine [ 9 ]. Moreover, S-1 treatment was associated with lower rates of some important adverse events including fewer catheter-related complications, grade 3–4 mucositis, stomatitis, febrile neutropenia, dehydration, and toxicity-related deaths than 5-FU, and fewer cases of grade 3–4 neutropenia and grade 1–2 HFS compared with capecitabine [ 9 ].…”
