Basic Facts:
• Decreasing incidence over past decades.• 3rd Leading Cause of Cancer Related Death (2012).• 80% at presentation: advanced, metastatic or recurrent median survival < 1 year. 10 – Year OAS (all stages) 20%.
• Shift from distal to proximal lesions (GEJ) & among whites.
• Surgical resection is the cornerstone in curative management loco-regional failures (40 – 65%).
• East versus West.

Problems with Gastric Cancer:
Early:
• Indigestion
• Nausea & vomiting
• Dysphagia
• Postprandial fullness
• Loss of appetite
• Hematemesis
• Loss of Weight
Late:
• Peritoneal affection
• Obstruction
• Bleeding
• Evident nutritional deficiency

Changes in Practice Trends:
• HR (OAS) = 0.49.• Survival Advantage = 4.3 to 11 months.• Total Survival with maintained High Quality of Life (69% - 47% P < .05)

Take Home Message:
• No international consensus for the optimal regimen.
• Triplets versus Duplets: Higher response rate & modest survival improvement but with higher toxicity.
• IV and Oral FP are equivalent.
• Platinum Analogues: No superiority over each other.
• Anti-Her 2neu therapy had expanded the therapeutic platform of gastric cancer
• Anti-angiogenic therapy is an emerging keyplayer
• Still we have an unmet need.
