Abstract

Recent years have witnessed an improved understanding of tumour biology and the molecular features of gastric cancer. Remarkable advances in next-generation sequencing technologies have defined the genomic landscape of gastric cancer. In fact, several molecular classifications have been proposed, and distinct molecular subtypes have been identified, which could serve as a roadmap for patient stratification and trials of targeted therapies. At present, clinical trials of new agents, such as receptor tyrosine kinases inhibitors, antibody–drug conjugates and IMAB362 (anti-Claudin 18.2), are ongoing. Furthermore, biomarkers of immune checkpoint inhibitors or combination therapy have been ardently investigated. These developments could facilitate precision medicine for gastric cancer in the near future.
