Core Tip Surgery remains the cornerstone of curative therapy in gastric cancer. However, a large proportion of patients are diagnosed with locally advanced disease, resulting in poor survival. Randomized trials have now established either post-operative chemoradiotherapy or perioperative chemotherapy as standard adjuvant therapies in the Western world. There remain, however, significant differences in the approach to management between the West and East. In Asia, extended resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy represents the standard of care. This review discusses the evidence supporting current standard adjuvant therapy in gastric cancer, as well as recent and ongoing trials investigating novel (neo)adjuvant approaches.
