Choice of Capecitabine or S1 in Combination with Oxaliplatin based on Thymidine Phosphorylase and Dihydropyrimidine Dehydrogenase Expression Status in Patients with Advanced Gastric Cancer.

Conclusions: No significant difference in clinical efficacy was found between CAPOX and SOX. TP-positive patients might respond better to CAPOX while DPD-positive patients may respond better to SOX. Our findings might serve as a guide for personalized chemotherapy for gastric cancer. PMID: 31897343 [PubMed]
