Abstract
Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy has a proven survival benefit for patients undergoing upfront resection of gastric cancer compared with surgery alone. Now, data from the TOPGEAR trial demonstrate that adding radiotherapy to standard-of-care perioperative chemotherapy offers no additional survival benefit. I discuss the implications for treatment and future research.
