ObjectiveTo understand the latest research progress in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer (AGC) and explore the optimal treatment strategy. Method The latest literature on the treatment of AGC was retrieved and reviewed. Results For patients with AGC, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, palliative therapy, nutritional support, and traditional Chinese medicine therapy were currently adopted in clinic, the combination of them were used usually. Some patients obtained good therapeutic effects by new chemotherapy drugs and antibody conjugated drugs. In the era of first-line immunotherapy or targeted therapy, first-line immunotherapy alone, immunotherapy in combination with chemotherapy, double immunotherapy, and immunotherapy combined with anti-angiogenesis targeted drugs for AGC had represented some survival benefits. ConclusionsThe research, development, and widespread application of new anti-tumor drugs have continuously expanded the treatment methods for AGC. The development of tumor molecular biology provides an opportunity for the treatment of AGC, and the precise diagnosis and treatment pattern guided by molecular typing is gradually maturing. However, the treatment of AGC is still facing challenges. In the era of precision medicine, facing the higher heterogeneity of gastric cancer, the dilemma of precise treatment of drugs for AGC, and the research and development of new anti-tumor drugs, the optimal treatment mode of AGC still needs more clinical exploration. It is necessary to comprehensively consider various aspects such as the patient’s physical condition, previous treatment status, and drug accessibility.
ObjectiveTo sort out the key evidence-based data and recent advances in the systemic treatment of advanced triple-negative breast carcinoma (TNBC), to summarize the therapeutic strategies so as to provide guidance for clinical practice. MethodsThe key evidence and research progress on immune checkpoint inhibitors, antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs), poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, anti-angiogenic agents, and novel microtubule inhibitors were summarized. ResultsThe treatment landscape for advanced TNBC has shifted from chemotherapy-centric approaches to biomarker-driven, stratified precision therapy. Based on programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression levels, immune therapy combined with chemotherapy is prioritized. For cases with germline breast cancer gene 1/2 (gBRCA1/2) mutations, PARP inhibitors are recommended. ADCs are suggested for second-line treatment, while novel microtubule inhibitors, either alone or in combination with anti-angiogenic agents, are preferred for later-line therapy to extend patient survival. ConclusionDynamic monitoring of molecular biomarkers such as PD-L1 and gBRCA, combined with sequential or combined "targeted–immunotherapy–ADC" regimens in a "chemotherapy-free" approach, has shown promise in improving overall survival in advanced TNBC.
