Less necessity of adjuvant S-1 treatment in non-monarchE-eligible patients.

MonarchE criteria accurately identify patients who are prone to relapse. Moreover, although POTENT criteria also suggested a reasonable capacity for recurrence prediction, there was no significant difference in recurrence between POTENT non-eligible patients and the patients who were POTENT but not monarchE eligible. This might offer justification for reconsidering the use of S-1 in monarchE non-eligible patients.
