We aimed to identify prognostic and predictive markers among clinicopathological factors for efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy in gastric cancer by pooled analysis from 3,521 patients on three large randomized trials: ACTS-GC, CLASSIC, and SAMIT. The primary endpoint was relapse-free survival, and the secondary endpoints were overall survival. The integrity of individual patient data was verified. Significant prognostic markers in surgery alone groups of ACTS-GC and CLASSIC were lower body mass index and advanced stage of disease.
