| Core Tip |
Generally, most patients with advanced cancer have various additional conditions that are due to the advanced cancer, unlike patients who are candidates for surgery. It is currently unclear whether a delay in the initiation of chemotherapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer (A-GC) leads to adverse outcomes. In the present study, we evaluated the impact of treatment delay on clinical outcomes in patients with A-GC. Using propensity score matched analysis to minimize potential selection bias, we found that there was no significant difference in overall survival between patients in the early waiting time (WT) and elective WT groups. A longer WT in patients with A-GC does not appear to be associated with a worse prognosis. |
