Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) remains a deadly disease because of late detection and limited treatment options at advanced stages. Treatment of patients with metastatic disease is based on chemotherapy, complemented by antibodies targeting HER2, VEGFR2, and more recently PD-1 or claudin 18.2. Further targets, such as FGFR2b, as well as novel drug classes including antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and bispecific antibodies, are promising developments in GC treatment. Despite the failure of several targeted agents, the landscape of GC therapy is evolving rapidly, facilitated by umbrella or platform precision medicine trials. The integration of next-generation sequencing and other omics techniques into molecular tumor boards, as well as functional drug testing on patient-derived models, might bring us closer to personalized oncology and ultimately improve patient survival.
期刊介绍：
Trends in Molecular Medicine (TMM) aims to offer concise and contextualized perspectives on the latest research advancing biomedical science toward better diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of human diseases. It focuses on research at the intersection of basic biology and clinical research, covering new concepts in human biology and pathology with clear implications for diagnostics and therapy. TMM reviews bridge the gap between bench and bedside, discussing research from preclinical studies to patient-enrolled trials. The major themes include disease mechanisms, tools and technologies, diagnostics, and therapeutics, with a preference for articles relevant to multiple themes. TMM serves as a platform for discussion, pushing traditional boundaries and fostering collaboration between scientists and clinicians. The journal seeks to publish provocative and authoritative articles that are also accessible to a broad audience, inspiring new directions in molecular medicine to enhance human health.
