Abstract | In recent years, important clinical trials for gastric cancer (GC) and esophagogastric junction cancer (EGJC) have been reported, changing the strategies of surgical and perioperative treatment. Although laparoscopic gastrectomy has already been shown to be effective for early-stage cancer, recent evidence from both Asia (JLSSG0901, CLASS-01 and KLASS-02) and Europe (LOGICA and STOMACH trials) has demonstrated that it is useful for advanced GC. Robotic surgery has been rapidly gaining popularity in recent years, and randomized controlled trials are ongoing to evaluate its efficacy. A prospective nationwide multicenter study mapped sites with frequent metastasis and revealed lymphatic flow specific to EGJC, thus establishing the optimal lymph node dissection area and surgical approach based on esophageal involvement. Perioperative chemotherapy, the mainstay of treatment in Europe, also has been established in Asia by the PRODIGY and RESOLVE studies. New clinical trials have been conducted to evaluate the efficacy of combining immunotherapy or molecular-targeted therapy with perioperative chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy. In this review, we present important recent clinical trials regarding the treatment of GC and EGJC published in 2021 or 2022. |
