Abstract:
As a complex and difficult condition, gastric cancer (GC) continues to have a big impact on the world's health. The goal of this review article is to give a thorough summary of the most recent developments and research discoveries in the field of stomach cancer. The review discusses a wide range of topics, such as the epidemiology and risk factors for GC, molecular insights into its pathogenesis, the use of biomarkers in diagnosis and prognosis, current and novel therapeutic approaches, and the intriguing potential of immunotherapy. In addition, procedures for surgery, therapy strategies, and imaging modalities for diagnosis and staging are examined. The paper emphasizes how crucial it is to comprehend the tumor microenvironment and how it affects the course of the disease. Overall, this review provides a comprehensive assessment of the current body of knowledge, highlights research gaps, and suggests future lines of inquiry to enhance the treatment of GC.
