Abstract:
Gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer worldwide and its incidence is rising. Surgery is the only curative strategy and its association with perioperative chemotherapy is now standard treatment for most resectable tumors. Despite treatment advances, disease relapse is high, even in early stages, and continued improvement in curative treatment is imperative. With deeper knowledge of gastric cancer heterogeneity, molecular subtypes, and the tumor immune microenvironment, new standard treatment strategies may emerge in the near future. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the current treatment landscape in resectable gastric cancer and future perspectives for the next decade regarding new agents such as targeted therapies, immunotherapy, antibody-drug conjugates, and the combination of multiple treatment modalities.
