Core Tip	In locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC), R0 resection is a well-established predictive factor. To achieve R0 resection, neoadjuvant approaches have been attempted. Studies of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical gastrectomy and D2 dissection have resulted in favorable outcomes and large studies of neoadjuvant chemotherapy are underway. Data on neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) in LAGC are limited. This retrospective study was performed to investigate the efficacy of NACRT in LAGC. We found that NACRT increased the chance for an R0 resection and potentially enhanced survival in LAGC.
