No role for pre-operative CRT in the treatment of operable Gastric cancer – ESMO
ESMO shared on LinkedIn:
“Final results presented at ESMO24 from the phase III TOPGEAR trial show that the addition of pre-operative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) to peri-operative chemotherapy improved pathological outcomes but not long-term OS in patients with resectable Gastric Cancer and Gastro-oesophageal Cancer.
