All
Phase N/A

Overview

The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the long term quality of life with advanced gastric cancer patients.

Description

Preoperative adjuvant chemotherapy combined with postoperative adjuvant therapy mode was included in the 2018 version of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guideline as an optional treatment (category 2B) for prospective resectable advanced gastric cancer cases (cT2, any N).At home and abroad, the research on neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer mainly focuses on the safety and long-term survival, and there are few studies on the quality of life. This study, according to EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-STO22 assessment scale, explores the long term effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on the quality of life in patients with advanced gastric cancer.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients age older than 18 years (including 18 years old);
  • Diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the stomach
  • The clinic stage is T2 and any N stage
  • Patient had curative surgical resection, including proximal, distal, or total gastrectomy

Exclusion Criteria:
