Abstract
Translational medicine refers to translating basic research achievements into the clinical application for diagnosis and treatment. There are still many issues of gastric cancer to be solved in clinical diagnosis and treatment. We need to focus on clinical questions, by means of basic research and multidisciplinary intersection approach, to further improve the overall efficacy of gastric cancer. Based on Ruijin Hospital's translational research experiences, in this paper, the authors describe the future direction in the field of translational research, such as the etiology and pathogenesis of gastric cancer, tumor markers for early diagnosis, prediction of recurrence and metastasis, classification criteria, evaluation of chemotherapy, tumor heterogeneity, targeted therapy, immunotherapy and research platform establishment. In addition, here we share our perspective of the research on serum biomarkers, specific antibodies and improvement of drug delivery for gastric cancer.
