Abstract
The impact of age on various aspects of gastric cancer (GC) remains controversial. Clarifying this issue can improve our understanding of the disease, refine risk stratification models, and aid in personalized therapeutic approaches. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of age at diagnosis on the clinicopathological features, prognosis, and management of a specific cohort of Spanish patients with resected GC. The study encompassed 315 patients treated at a single tertiary hospital in Spain, divided into two age-based subgroups: ≤65 years and >65 years. The mean and median ages at diagnosis were 72 and 76 years. Most tumors were diagnosed at pT3 stage (49.2%), and 59.6% of patients had lymph node metastases. 21.3% of cases were diagnosed with GC at age ≤ 65 years. Younger patients showed a significantly higher prevalence of flat, diffuse, high-grade tumors, signet-ring cells, perineural infiltration, D2 lymphadenectomies, and adjuvant therapy. They also exhibited a higher rate of recurrences, but had a significantly longer follow-up. Kaplan-Meier curves indicated no significant prognostic differences based on age. Finally, age did not independently predict overall survival or disease-free survival. Our results suggest that younger patients may require more aggressive treatment due to adverse clinicopathologic features, but the lack of prognostic differences among age groups in our cohort indicates the need for further investigation into the complex interplay between age, clinicopathologic factors, and long-term outcomes in GC.

Wei H, Zhan XY, Liao X, Li W, Chen H, Deng C, Jin X, Huang Z, Yang M, Zhang C, He Y. Gastric cancer clinical characteristics and their altered trends in South China: An epidemiological study with 2,800 cases spanning 26 years. Front Oncol 2023; 13:976854. [PMID: 36824130 PMCID: PMC9942704 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.976854] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2022] [Accepted: 01/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer (GC) is a serious threat to human health. The clinical GC characteristics in China may be impacted by changes in people's lifestyles and the promotion of early GC (EGC) screening. The present study aims to evaluate the recent trends of GC characteristics in South China and search for hazardous factors limiting the survival time of GC patients. METHODS Data on GC patients that were hospitalized in the Department of Digestive Center, the First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, from 1994 to 2019 were collected and divided into two categories according to the time when the EGC screening began in China: the PRE group (previous 13 years, 1994-2006) and the PAS group (past 13 years, 2007-2019). RESULTS We found that, although the 5-year survival rate increased in the PAS group compared with the PRE group (P < 0.0001), patients with age ≥60 years or Borrmann type IV still had a worse prognosis. In the PAS group, the larger percentages of elderly patients and patients with Borrmann type IV in the lymphatic metastases (N1) group (41.0% vs. 51.1%, P = 0.0014) and stage IV subgroup (20.7% vs. 32.2%, P = 0.016), respectively, when compared with the PRE group, may have contributed to the poor outcome of GC. By comparing the odds ratio (OR) of 5-year overall survival (OS) in the two 13-year periods, female sex and T2 turned into risk factors because of a greater proportion of Borrmann type IV or elderly patients in the PAS group (OR = 0.983, 95% CI = 0.723-1.336 vs. OR = 1.277, 95% CI = 1.028-1.586 and OR = 1.545, 95% CI = 0.499-4.775 vs. OR = 2.227, 95% CI = 1.124-4.271, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Despite the GC epidemiology changes, the overall prognosis of GC patients has improved in South China. However, old age and Borrmann type IV are still the major restrictions affecting the survival of GC patients, a situation which calls for additional attention.

Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients With Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer Undergoing Perioperative or Postoperative Adjuvant S-1 Plus Oxaliplatin With D2 Gastrectomy: A Propensity Score-Matched Cohort Study. Front Oncol 2022; 12:853337. [PMID: 35444949 PMCID: PMC9013949 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.853337] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2022] [Accepted: 03/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Some high-quality clinical trials have proven the efficacy and safety of perioperative and postoperative S-1 with oxaliplatin (peri-SOX and post-SOX) for patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) undergoing D2 gastrectomy. However, little is known about how health-related quality of life (HRQOL) changes over time in patients receiving peri-SOX or post-SOX chemotherapy. Methods A prospective observational cohort (NCT04408859) identified 151 eligible patients with LAGC who underwent D2 gastrectomy with at least six cycles of peri-SOX or post-SOX chemotherapy from 2018 to 2020. HRQOL was assessed using the EROTC QLQ-C30 and its gastric module, QLQ-STO22, at indicated measurements, including the baseline, 1st, 3rd, 6th and 12th month after initiation of therapy. Baseline characteristics, therapeutic effects, and longitudinal HRQOL were compared between the peri-SOX and post-SOX groups after propensity score matching. HRQOL changes over time and the risk factors for scales with severe deterioration were further analyzed. Results No statistically significant differences in longitudinal HRQOL were observed between patients in the peri-SOX and post-SOX groups, with comparable surgical outcomes and adverse chemotherapy events. Scales of social functioning, abnormal taste, and anxiety improved earlier in the peri-SOX group than in the post-SOX group. Score changes in both groups indicated that general deterioration and slower recovery usually occurred in the scales of physical, social, and role functioning, as well as symptoms of fatigue, reflux, diarrhea, and anxiety. Conclusion Peri-SOX showed a longitudinal HRQOL comparable to post-SOX in patients with LAGC who underwent D2 gastrectomy. The peri-SOX group had better performance in social functioning, abnormal taste, and anxiety at some measurements.

Three-year outcomes of the randomized phase III SEIPLUS trial of extensive intraoperative peritoneal lavage for locally advanced gastric cancer. Nat Commun 2021; 12:6598. [PMID: 34782599 PMCID: PMC8594430 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-021-26778-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2021] [Accepted: 10/05/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Whether extensive intraoperative peritoneal lavage (EIPL) after gastrectomy is beneficial to patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (AGC) is not clear. This phase 3, multicenter, parallel-group, prospective randomized study (NCT02745509) recruits patients between April 2016 and November 2017. Eligible patients who had been histologically proven AGC with T3/4NxM0 stage are randomly assigned (1:1) to either surgery alone or surgery plus EIPL. The results of the two groups are analyzed in the intent-to-treat population. A total of 662 patients with AGC (329 patients in the surgery alone group, and 333 in the surgery plus EIPL group) are included in the study. The primary endpoint is 3-year overall survival (OS). The secondary endpoints include 3-year disease free survival (DFS), 3-year peritoneal recurrence-free survival (reported in this manuscript) and 30-day postoperative complication and mortality (previously reported). The trial meets pre-specified endpoints. Estimated 3-year OS rates are 68.5% in the surgery alone group and 70.6% in the surgery plus EIPL group (log-rank p = 0.77). 3-year DFS rates are 61.2% in the surgery alone group and 66.0% in the surgery plus EIPL group (log-rank p = 0.24). The pattern of disease recurrence is similar in the two groups. In conclusion, EIPL does not improve the 3-year survival rate in AGC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to classify metastatic pyloric/antral gastric cancer in terms of macroscopic morphology and metastatic form. METHODS Thirty-eight patients with pyloric/antral gastric cancer were included in the study. Patients were classified according to a combination of Borrmann classification type and metastatic type, and the clinicopathological characteristics of each group were compared. RESULT Of the 38 patients, 33 (type II: 9 and type III: 24) (87%) had ulcerative gastric cancer. Ulcerative gastric cancer was classified into four groups: lymphatic only group (L+H-P-), lymphatic + hematogenous group (L+H+P-), disseminated ± lymphatic group (L±H-P+), and lymphatic + hematogenous + disseminated group (L+H+P+). In the L+H-P- group, all patients had bulky lymph nodes and serum levels of both carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) were high; the condition of patients was good, and the therapeutic response was good. In the L+H+P- group, metastases other than liver metastases were rare, and serum CEA levels were high. In the L±H-P+ group, the predominant histological type was signet ring cell carcinoma; both serum CEA and CA19-9 levels were low. Patients in the L+H+P+ group had higher serum CA19-9 levels and were more prone to hematogenous metastasis to various organs; these patients had worse patient status and lower treatment response. Gastric cancer other than ulcerative type was only detected in five patients (type V: 3, type IV: 1, type I: 1). CONCLUSION Classification by a combination of macroscopic and metastatic form in pyloric/antral metastatic gastric cancer might be useful for diagnosis and treatment.

Are Borrmann's Types of Advanced Gastric Cancer Distinct Clinicopathological and Molecular Entities? A Western Study. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:3081.

Abstract
Most studies on the clinicopathological impact of Borrmann classification for gastric cancer (GC) have been performed in Asian patients with type IV tumors, and immunohistochemical features of Borrmann types have scarcely been analyzed. We assessed the clinicopathological, molecular features and prognostic value of Borrmann types in all patients with advanced GC resected in a Western institution (n = 260). We observed a significant relationship between Borrmann types and age, systemic symptoms, tumor size, Laurén subtype, presence of signet-ring cells, infiltrative growth, high grade, tumor necrosis, HERCEPTEST positivity, microsatellite instability (MSI) and molecular subtypes. Polypoid GC showed systemic symptoms, intestinal-type histology, low grade, expansive growth and HERCEPTEST positivity. Fungating GC occurred in symptomatic older patients. It presented intestinal-type histology, infiltrative growth and necrosis. Ulcerated GC showed smaller size, intestinal-type histology, high grade and infiltrative growth. Most polypoid and ulcerated tumors were stable-p53-not overexpressed or microsatellite unstable. Flat lesions were high-grade diffuse tumors with no MSI, and occurred in younger and less symptomatic patients. No association was found between Borrmann classification and prognosis. According to our results, Borrmann types may represent distinct clinicopathological and biological entities. Further research should be conducted to confirm the role of Borrmann classification in the stratification of patients with advanced GC.

Abstract
The present study investigated and evaluated the correlation between the expression of LACTB and LC3 and the clinical outcomes of patients with advanced gastric cancer treated with oxaliplatin plus S-1 neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). A total of 51 patients with advanced gastric cancer underwent NACT treatment between June 2015 and June 2017. Pathomorphological changes in gastric cancer were analyzed by H&E staining. The expression level and subcellular localization of LACTB and LC3 in paraffin-embedded biopsies were detected by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence. The mRNA and protein expression of LACTB were investigated by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting, respectively. Statistical analysis was performed to determine the association between the expression of LACTB and LC3 and clinical chemotherapy efficacy of NACT for gastric cancer. Among the 51 patients, 3 (5.88%), 27 (52.94%), 13 (25.49%) and 8 (15.69%) displayed complete remission, partial remission, stable disease and progressive disease, respectively. The rate of decreased LACTB expression was 68.6%, while the rate of increased LC3 expression was 60.8%. Furthermore, there was a significant negative correlation between the expression of LACTB and that of LC3 following NACT (P<0.001). High expression of LC3 (P<0.01) and low expression of LACTB (P<0.01) were associated with a poor response of patients with advanced gastric cancer to NACT. In conclusion, the expression of LACTB and LC3 may serve as a promising novel biomarker for determining the prognosis of patients with advanced gastric cancer receiving NACT, while its potential clinical significance requires further elucidation.

Abstract
Background Curing locally advanced gastric cancer through surgery alone is difficult. Adjuvant and neoadjuvant chemotherapy bring potential benefits to more patients with gastric cancer based on several clinical trials. According to phase II studies and guidelines, SOX regimen as neoadjuvant chemotherapy is efficient. However, the optimal duration of neoadjuvant chemotherapy has not been established. In this study, we will evaluate the efficacy and safety of different cycles of SOX as neoadjuvant chemotherapy for patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. Methods RESONANCE-II trial is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled phase III study which will enroll 524 patients in total. Eligible patients will be registered, pre-enrolled and receive three cycles of SOX, after which tumor response evaluations will be carried out. Those who show stable disease or progressive disease will be excluded. Patients showing complete response or partial response will be enrolled and assigned into either group A for another three cycles of SOX (six cycles in total) followed by D2 surgery; or group B for D2 surgery (three cycles in total). The primary endpoint is the rate of pathological complete response and the secondary endpoints are R0 resection rate, three-year disease-free survival, five-year overall survival, and safety. Discussion This study is the first phase III randomized trial to compare the cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy using SOX for resectable locally advanced cancer. Based on a total of six to eight cycles of perioperative chemotherapy usually applied in locally advanced gastric cancer, patients in group A can be considered to have completed all perioperative chemotherapy, the results of which may suggest the feasibility of using chemotherapy only before surgery in gastric cancer. Trial registration Registered prospectively in the World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (WHO ICTRP) with registration number ChiCTR1900023293 on May 21st, 2019.

Radiologic serosal invasion sign as a new criterion of T4a gastric cancer on computed tomography: diagnostic performance and prognostic significance in patients with advanced gastric cancer. Abdom Radiol (NY) 2020; 45:2950-2959. [PMID: 31359095 DOI: 10.1007/s00261-019-02156-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the diagnostic performance and prognostic significance of a new criterion for radiologic T4a staging on computed tomography (CT) in patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC). METHODS Between January 2010 and April 2019, 101 patients with pathologically confirmed gastric cancer were collected. Among them, 53 patients with pathologic T3 and T4a cancers were included in this study. Three reviewers assessed preoperative CT scans for radiologic T staging in two sessions, independently and in consensus at a 2-week interval, while blinded about the pathologic T stage. The radiologic serosal invasion sign was defined as a nodular extension from the outer gastric wall reaching beyond the perigastric vascular plane and adopted as a new CT criterion for T4a cancer. We evaluated the diagnostic performance, interobserver agreement, and prognostic significance of this sign for the postoperative recurrence. RESULTS There were 46 pathologic T3 cancers (86.7%) and seven pathologic T4a cancers (13.2%). The diagnostic performance of the radiologic serosal invasion sign in the differentiation between T3 and T4a cancers was as follows: sensitivity, 91.3%; specificity, 71.43%; and accuracy, 88.68% for R1 and sensitivity, 78.26%; specificity, 85.71%; and accuracy, 79.25% for R2. The k-value was 0.64. Among the clinical and pathologic variables, radiologic T4a sign [hazard ratio (HR): 7.96; 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.36-26.86, p = 0.001], pathologic T4a (HR 9.82, 95% CI 2.35-40.95, p = 0.002), tumor size (HR 1.18, 95% CI 1.02-1.35, p = 0.026), and lymphovascular invasion (HR 6.39, 95% CI 1.42-28.75, p = 0.015) were the significant factors for postoperative recurrence. CONCLUSIONS Radiologic serosal invasion sign is reliable as a new CT criterion for T4a cancer staging in patients with advanced gastric cancer, demonstrating 80% to 88% accuracy. Radiologic serosal invasion sign can also serve as a prognostic factor for postoperative recurrence as well as pathologic T4a stage.

Abstract
Importance Peritoneal metastasis is the most frequent pattern of postoperative recurrence in patients with gastric cancer. Extensive intraoperative peritoneal lavage (EIPL) is a new prophylactic strategy for treatment of peritoneal metastasis of locally advanced gastric cancer; however, the safety and efficacy of EIPL is currently unknown. Objective To evaluate short-term outcomes of patients with advanced gastric cancer who received combined surgery and EIPL or surgery alone. Design, Setting, and Participants From March 2016 to November 2017, 662 patients with advanced gastric cancer receiving D2 gastrectomy were enrolled in a large, multicenter, randomized clinical trial from 11 centers across China. In total, 329 patients were randomly assigned to receive surgery alone, and 333 patients were randomly assigned to receive surgery plus EIPL. Clinical characteristics, operative findings, and postoperative short-term outcomes were compared between the 2 groups in the intent-to-treat population. Main Outcomes and Measures Short-term postoperative complications and mortality. Results The present analysis included data from 550 patients, 390 men and 160 women, with a mean (SD) age of 60.8 (10.7) years in the surgery alone group and 60.6 (10.8) in the surgery plus EIPL group. Patients assigned to the surgery plus EIPL group exhibited reduced mortality (0 of 279 patients) compared with those assigned to surgery alone (5 of 271 patients [1.9%]) (difference, 1.9%; 95% CI, 0.3%-3.4%; P = .02). A significant difference in the overall postoperative complication rate was observed between patients receiving surgery alone (46 patients [17.0%]) and those receiving surgery plus EIPL (31 patients [11.1%]) (difference, 5.9%; 95% CI, 0.1%-11.6%; P = .04). Postoperative pain occurred more often following surgery alone (48 patients [17.7%]) than following surgery plus EIPL (30 patients [10.8%]) (difference, 7.0%; 95% CI, 0.8%-13.1%; P = .02). Conclusions and Relevance Inclusion of EIPL can increase the safety of D2 gastrectomy and decrease postoperative short-term complications and wound pain. As a new, safe, and simple procedure, EIPL therapy is easily performed anywhere and does not require any special devices or techniques. Our study suggests that patients with advanced gastric cancer appear to be candidates for the EIPL approach. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02745509.
