About

This is a randomized, multicenter, controlled study to compared the Efficacy and Safety of XELOX combined with Apatinib versus XELOX as post-operative chemotherapy in locally advanced gastric signet ring carcinoma with D2 dissection.

Full description

The purpose of this study is to prove that as for disease free survival time, and safety, Apatinib with XELOX(Oxaliplatin with Capecitabine) has a better effect over that of XELOX adjunct therapy group for postoperative chemotherapy of locally advanced gastric signet ring carcinoma with D2 dissection.
