Abstract

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the tumor response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients diagnosed with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma. A cross-sectional observational analytical study was conducted based on data recorded in the clinical records of patients diagnosed with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma treated with NAC at the Regional Institute of Neoplastic Diseases - Northern IREN during the period from January 2012 to January 2017 To establish the relationship between the associated factors (Age, sex, histological type, primary tumor location, Bormann’s type, degree of cell differentiation, family history and tumor size evaluated by tomography prior to chemotherapy) and the response or not to the Neoadjuvant chemotherapy, bivariate analysis was used. It was found that the tumor size was the only variable statistically related to tumor regression after QNA (OR = 28, p = 0,010) although its 95% CI ranged between 0,92-851,6. It is concluded that there is an association between the tumor size prior to NAC and the tumor response in patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma.
