Core Tip	Overt bleeding (OB) is a dangerous condition in patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer (GC)/gastroesophageal junction cancer (GEJC). Are these patients at significant risk for systematic treatment? This study retrospectively assessed the survival and treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) of GC/GEJC patients with OB. The median overall survival (mOS) of patients with OB before treatment (OBBT) was similar to that of patients without OBBT. Nevertheless, the mOS was worse for patients with OB after treatment (OBAT) than for those without OBAT. The incidence of grade 3-4 TRAEs between the groups with OBBT and without OBBT was similar.
