Core Tip

Core Tip: Borrmann type III and IV gastric cancers (GCs) generally have a poor prognosis. JCOG0501 failed to demonstrate the efficacy of a preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen (S-1 plus cisplatin) in patients with type IV or large type III GC. For these patients, we explored the possibility of chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy. The results showed that programmed cell death 1 inhibitors combined with oxaliplatin and S-1 significantly increased Tumor regression rate during neoadjuvant therapy in patients with type III and type IV GC. At the same time, chemotherapy side effects and surgical complications did not increase.
