The Nov, 2023 article by Kodera et al. entitled “Addition of docetaxel to S-1 results in significantly superior 5-year survival outcomes in Stage III gastric cancer: a final report of the JACCRO GC-07 study” (Gastric Cancer https://doi.org/10.1007/s10120-023-01419-9) was published online on August 7, 2023, with errors.


The first sentence of the second paragraph in the Results section read as: Among the 912 patients, 190 patients in the S-1 plus docetaxel group and 236 patients in the S-1 monotherapy group showed recurrence during the 5 years of follow up, with the death of 167 patients and 206 patients, respectively.


It should have read as: During the 5 years of follow up, 426 events had been observed; 190 events in the S-1 plus docetaxel group and 236 events in the S-1 monotherapy group.


This has been corrected as of May 22, 2024. The authors apologize for the errors.
