Objective: To elucidate the prognostic factors of liver metastasis in gastric cancer patients with radical gastrectomy.
Methods: Clinicopathological data of 87 liver metastasis patients, undergone radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer from 1996 to 2001, were retrospectively analyzed.
Results: Of these 87 patients, the 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 28.8%, 3.6% and 0 respectively and the average survival time after gastrectomy was (11.3+/-1.1) months. By univariate analysis, tumor location, tumor size, histologic differentiation, invasive depth, Lauren classification, metastasis of lymph nodes from lymphadenectomy, vascular invasion, nervous invasion, peritoneal metastasis, number of liver metastasis, liver metastatic distribution and resection of liver metastasis were found to be significant factors associated with the prognosis of liver metastatic patients after radical gastrectomy. By multivariate analysis, location, the Lauren classification, liver metastatic distribution and resection of liver metastasis were found to be independent factors associated with hepatic metastasis after radical gastrectomy.
Conclusion: Location of gastric cancer, Lauren classification, liver metastatic distribution and resection of liver metastasis are important factors to evaluate the prognosis of liver metastasis in gastric cancer patients with radical gastrectomy.

The transcriptomic classification of primary colorectal cancer (CRC) into distinct consensus molecular subtypes (CMSs) is a well-described strategy for patient stratification. However, the molecular nature of CRC metastases remains poorly investigated. To this end, this study aimed to identify and compare organotropic CMS frequencies in CRC liver and brain metastases.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of comprehensive treatment focusing on transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for postoperative liver metastasis in patients with gastric cancer and analyze the factors influencing prognosis.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 116 patients who developed liver metastasis after gastric cancer surgery and were admitted to Gansu Provincial Cancer Hospital between January 2018 and February 2020. The observation group, consisting of 62 patients, received TACE with fluorouracil (FU) + irinotecan (CPT-11) + oxaliplatin (OXA) and moderate lipiodol embolization.

Breast cancer remission after treatment is sometimes long-lasting, but in about 30% of cases, there is a relapse after a so-called dormant state. Cellular cancer dormancy, the propensity of disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) to remain in a nonproliferative state for an extended period, presents an opportunity for therapeutic intervention that may prevent reawakening and the lethal consequences of metastatic outgrowth. Therefore, identification of dormant DTCs and detailed characterization of cancer cell-intrinsic and niche-specific [i.
