Abstract

In December 1977 a joint clinical trial for patients with gastric adenocarcinoma was initiated by investigators in the United States and Japan. This cooperative protocol was the first joint clinical effort sponsored by the United States-Japan Scientific Agreement for Cancer Research, as part of the National Cancer Institute.

The authors are grateful to Melanie Gribble and Yoko Shimano for their help in preparing this analysis. This study was supported in part by American Cancer Society Clinical Fellowship 4285, Northern and NCI Contrect No. NOI-CM-22054
