Brief Summary
The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate the impact of different neoadjuvant therapies on patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. The primary question it aims to address is: Which patient populations benefit most from neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced gastric cancer?

neoadjuvant chemotherapy
The nCT group included two subgroups: nCT2 (SOX/XELOX) and nCT3 (FLOT: docetaxel 50mg/m² + oxaliplatin 85mg/m² + leucovorin 200mg/m² d1 + fluorouracil 2600mg/m² 48h CIV q2w; or DCF: docetaxel 75mg/m² + cisplatin 75mg/m² d1 + fluorouracil 750mg/m² d1-5 q3w).
neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy
The nICT group received PD-1 inhibitors (sintilimab 200mg, tislelizumab 200mg, or nivolumab 240mg, all iv q3w) combined with two-drug chemotherapy (SOX: oxaliplatin 130mg/m² d1 + S-1 40-60mg bid d1-14; or XELOX: oxaliplatin 130mg/m² d1 + capecitabine 1000mg/m² bid d1-14, both q3w).
Interventions
The nICT group received PD-1 inhibitors (sintilimab 200mg, tislelizumab 200mg, or nivolumab 240mg, all iv q3w) combined with two-drug chemotherapy (SOX: oxaliplatin 130mg/m² d1 + S-1 40-60mg bid d1-14; or XELOX: oxaliplatin 130mg/m² d1 + capecitabine 1000mg/m² bid d1-14, both q3w). The nCT group included two subgroups: nCT2 (SOX/XELOX) and nCT3 (FLOT: docetaxel 50mg/m² + oxaliplatin 85mg/m² + leucovorin 200mg/m² d1 + fluorouracil 2600mg/m² 48h CIV q2w; or DCF: docetaxel 75mg/m² + cisplatin 75mg/m² d1 + fluorouracil 750mg/m² d1-5 q3w).
Eligibility Criteria
This study screened 10,334 patients diagnosed with gastric/gastroesophageal junction tumors at a tertiary-grade A cancer hospital from November 2019 to December 2023 , identifying 777 who received neoadjuvant therapy, with 291 meeting inclusion criteria for final analysis. The cohort comprised resectable gastric adenocarcinoma patients undergoing neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy (nICT, n=98) or chemotherapy (nCT, n=193) followed by radical surgery (Figure S1), with follow-up through November 2024.
You may qualify if:
- Eligible patients had pathologically confirmed adenocarcinoma, imaging-confirmed resectable LAGC (cT2-4aN0-3M0, AJCC 8th), no distant metastases, and completed protocol-specified neoadjuvant therapy (nICT: PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors plus two-drug chemotherapy; nCT: two-drug \[SOX/XELOX\] or three-drug \[FLOT/DCF\] chemotherapy) with ECOG 0-1.
