Gastric Cancer, Version 2.2022

Jaffer A. Ajani et al.

Summary: Gastric cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with over 95% being adenocarcinomas. It is often diagnosed at an advanced stage, leading to a poor prognosis. However, systemic therapy can alleviate symptoms, improve survival, and enhance quality of life. The implementation of biomarker testing has significantly impacted clinical practice and patient care. Targeted therapies have shown encouraging results in clinical trials. Palliative management is recommended for patients with unresectable or metastatic cancer.

HER2 copy number as predictor of disease-free survival in HER2-positive resectable gastric adenocarcinoma

Zimin Liu et al.

Summary: The study revealed that HER2 CN could serve as an independent predictor for predicting survival prognosis in HER2-positive GA patients and help further stratify HER2-positive resectable GA patients for disease management.

Prevalence of HER2 overexpression and amplification in squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Kristian Egebjerg et al.

Summary: The estimated prevalence of HER2 positivity in ESCC is around 10% using ISH and 8.6% using initial IHC followed by ISH confirmation. This study highlights the need for further research on accurate detection methods for HER2 in ESCC patients.

Summary: The NCCN Guidelines for Hepatobiliary Cancers provide recommendations for screening, diagnosis, staging, treatment, and management of HCC, gallbladder cancer, and cancer of the bile ducts. A multidisciplinary evaluation is crucial for determining optimal treatment strategies, with significant advancements in systemic treatment of HCC beyond traditional options like sorafenib.
