A Phase II Study of Sintilimab Combined With Chemotherapy as Postoperative Adjuvant Treatment for Phase III Gastric Adenocarcinoma (GC) and The Adenocarcinoma of Esophagogastric Junction (GEJ)

This study is a prospective, single-arm, phase II clinical study. Screening patients with stage III GC/GEJ adenocarcinoma after D2 or broader radical resection. After enrolling in the study, the subjects receive Sintilimab combined with oxaliplatin+Tegafur, Gimeracil and Oteracil Potassium Capsules (SOX) or oxaliplatin+Capecitabine (XELOX) , in which the combined chemotherapy is up to 8 cycles, and the total course of treatment was 16 cycles. The following-up of subjects includes adverse events、disease status、living conditions and the quality of life.
