Abstract:For resectable gastric cancer, although radical surgery is still the main treatment, methods
of operation and the curative effect of operation are still in the stage of exploration for
metastatic gastric cancer. Radiotherapy, chemotherapy and molecular targeted therapy also
play an important role in prolonging the survival period of patients with gastric cancer.
Postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy can prolong the survival time, but for
patients with locally advanced gastric cancer, the preoperative radiotherapy and
chemotherapy can also further improve the survival period of patients compared with direct
operation. In addition, with the development and using of molecular targeted drugs, such as
antiangiogenic agents, immunosuppressive drugs and so on, the survival period of patients with gastric cancer has been further extended.
