Background Although docetaxel plus S-1 adjuvant chemotherapy after gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy has been a standard of treatment for stage III gastric cancer, there is no established chemotherapy for patients with recurrence during or within six months after the completion of adjuvant docetaxel plus S-1 therapy.


Discussion: The results of this trial will indicate whether the ramucirumab with irinotecan regimen has the potential to be a recommended treatment regimen for patients with recurrence gastric cancer during or within 6 months after the completion of adjuvant docetaxel plus S-1 therapy.
