Abstract: Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy of gastric cancer plays an important role in improving the prognosis. The role of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy has been identified. However， there is no consensus on the choice of postoperative adjuvant protocols. Treatment options vary from region to region， but there is strong evidence for various recommended adjuvant chemotherapy regimens in improving patient survival. Investigators from various countries have been exploring over years in order to find the appropriate patients to be treated and the most beneficial chemotherapy regimes. They conducted a number of studies which had confirmed the role of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and compared the benefit of different chemotherapies. This review introduces the current situation and progress in the postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy of gastric cancer.
