Gastric cancer remains a global health issue with limited survival improvements despite advances. Current US treatment for localized gastric cancer involves adjuvant chemoradiotherapy, with this review summarizing key clinical trials.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Gastroenterology
  • Clinical Trials

Background:

  • Gastric cancer is a significant global public health concern, though less common in Western nations.
  • Despite surgical, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy advancements, gastric cancer survival rates have stagnated.
  • Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy is the standard of care for localized, resectable gastric cancer in the US.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize pivotal randomized and phase II/III clinical trials in gastric cancer treatment.
  • To provide an overview of current therapeutic strategies for gastric cancer.
  • To highlight advancements and persistent challenges in managing gastric cancer.

Main Methods:

  • Review of salient randomized clinical trials.
  • Analysis of phase II and III clinical trial data.

  • Synthesis of current treatment paradigms for gastric cancer.
  • Main Results:

    • The article summarizes key findings from major clinical trials in gastric cancer.
    • It highlights the current standard of care, including adjuvant chemoradiotherapy.
    • The review underscores the lack of significant survival improvement over recent decades.

    Conclusions:

    • Gastric cancer treatment remains challenging, with limited progress in survival rates.
    • Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy is a cornerstone of current US treatment protocols for resectable disease.
    • Further research and clinical trials are essential to improve outcomes for gastric cancer patients.
