Introduction: Gastric cancer (GC) is the third largest cause of cancer-related death worldwide, with major geographic disparities in incidence and outcomes. Sociodemographic indicators, food habits, and genetic predispositions all add to the load. Despite advances in systemic treatments, peritoneal metastasis remains a concern, with intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC) emerging as a promising treatment option.
Methods: A prospective cohort research was done, with 30 GC patients receiving cytoreductive surgery (CRS) followed by lobaplatin-based intraoperative chemotherapy. The study evaluated postoperative complications, survival rates, and disease recurrence using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25.0 (IBM SPSS Statistics, Armonk, NY) for data analysis. The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness, safety, and dependability of lobaplatin as an intraoperative chemotherapeutic agent in patients having gastric cancer surgery, with a particular emphasis on those patients who do not have distant metastases.
Results: The study population had a balanced gender distribution, with an average age of 44.83 years. Most patients had advanced-stage cancer (T3 and T4), and lobaplatin treatment resulted in a low frequency of serious postoperative sequelae. Preliminary studies suggest that lobaplatin is a safe and potentially effective IPC drug for GC, with few side effects and adequate survival rates.
Conclusion: Lobaplatin shows promise as an intraoperative chemotherapeutic treatment for gastric cancer, necessitating more research in bigger, randomized controlled studies to determine its efficacy and safety profile. The study emphasizes the need for novel treatment strategies to enhance the prognosis of GC patients, particularly those with peritoneal involvement.

Purpose: Trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (Trop2) is overexpressed in various solid tumors and contributes to tumor progression, while its expression remains low in normal tissues. Trop2-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (Trodelvy), has shown efficacy in targeting this antigen. Leveraging the enhanced specificity of ADCs, we conducted the first immunoPET imaging study of Trop2 expression in gastric cancer (GC) and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) models using Zr-labeled Trodelvy ([Zr]Zr-DFO-Trodelvy).

Background: Gastric cancer poses a major diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Improved visualization of tumor margins and lymph node metastases with tumor-specific fluorescent markers could improve outcomes.
Methods: To establish orthotopic models of gastric cancer, one million cells of the human gastric cancer cell line, MKN45, were suspended in 50 μl of equal parts PBS and Matrigel and injected into the nude mouse stomach with a 29-gauge needle.
Aim: Human carbonic anhydrases (hCAs) are involved in many physiological processes including respiration, pH control, ion transport, bone resorption, and gastric fluid secretion. Recently, CA IX and CA XII have been studied for their role in cancer diseases, motivating the design of inhibitors of these isoforms.
Material And Method: Here, we used the tail approach to design a new series of monoaryl () and bicyclic () benzensulfonamide derivatives CA IX and CA XII inhibitors.
