Gastric adenocarcinoma is by far the most common form of gastric cancer (GC) and is a highly lethal form of cancer arising from the gastric epithelium. GC is an important area of focus of the medical community, given its often late-stage of diagnosis and associated high mortality rate. While surgery and chemotherapy remain the primary treatments, attention has been drawn to the use of immunologic therapies, which have shown promise in the treatment of other malignancies. The role for immune-based therapies has become clearer as we obtain a greater understanding of the role of the immune system in gastric cancer formation and growth. A variety treatment to augment the immune system are under evaluation in clinical trials, and these include immune checkpoint inhibitors, antibody-drug conjugates, and immune cell-based therapies. Here, we review the immune landscape and immune-based therapies for GC.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) play a pivotal role in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer (GC). However, the biomarkers used to predict ICI efficacy are limited due to their reliance on single or static tumor characteristics. This study aims to develop a machine learning (ML) model that incorporates dynamic changes in clinlabomics data to optimize the predictive accuracy of ICI efficacy.

Background: Esophagectomy causes anatomical changes that can lead to rapid food transit and reactive hypoglycemia (RH). Patients are advised on eating patterns postesophagectomy to prevent RH, but its true incidence and the impact of dietary recommendations remain under-researched.
Materials And Methods: Individuals >12 months postesophagectomy were recruited from the National Centre for Oesophageal and Gastric Cancer at St James's Hospital in Dublin, Ireland.

In oxaliplatin-resistant gastric cancer (GC), multi-omics profiling combined with organoid libraries reveals altered metabolic pathways associated with chemoresistance. We identify a novel lactylation modification at K115 of Poly(RC)-binding protein 2 (PCBP2K115la), which confers functional oxaliplatin resistance. Mechanistic studies demonstrate that the long non-coding RNA BASP1-AS1 assembles a complex containing Unc-51 Like Autophagy Activating Kinase 1 (ULK1) and lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA), thereby activating LDHA enzymatic activity to increase lactate production.
