Core Tip |
Gastric adenocarcinoma is a difficult disease to treat. Surgical resection is the definitive therapy but recurrences are frequent. The use of a multidisciplinary approach to treatment decision-making is imperative. Surgical resection should be an R0 resection (with clear macroscopic and microscopic margins) and at least a D1 lymphadenectomy with a minimum of 15 lymph nodes sampled in the United States and a D2 lymphadenectomy elsewhere. Perioperative chemotherapy is a reasonable option based on the Medical Research Council Adjuvant Gastric Infusional Chemotherapy trial. In patients who are evaluated after resection, adjuvant chemoradiation adds important survival benefit. Other options include adjuvant S-1 in Asian patients, capecitabine/oxaliplatin, and capecitabine/cisplatin. |
