HER-2 positivity is a high risk of recurrence of stage I gastric cancer

Background/Aims The treatment of gastric cancer remains unsatisfactory. We aimed to investigate the prognostic value of immunohistochemical staining in gastric cancer. Methods We analyzed 505 (279 early staged, 226 advanced-staged) gastric cancer tissues from patients who underwent radical gastric r...

We aimed to investigate the prognostic value of immunohistochemical staining in gastric cancer. Methods We analyzed 505 (279 early staged, 226 advanced-staged) gastric cancer tissues from patients who underwent radical gastric resection between January 2014 and December 2016. Available surgical specimens immunohistochemically stained for p53, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), human EGFR 2 (HER-2), E-cadherin, and Ki-67 were reviewed. We evaluated the association between positivity to various biomarkers and disease recurrence, disease-free survival, lymph node metastasis, and microscopic lymphovascular invasion. Results The median follow-up duration was 32.5 months (range, 7 to 70). Advanced gastric cancer cases showed high Ki-67 expression; other cases showed unremarkable expression. Concerning disease recurrence, lymphatic invasion, and disease-free interval, all biomarkers had no prognostic effects. HER-2-positive stage I gastric cancer tended to occur in old patients and in the upper one-third of the stomach (p = 0.01). HER-2 positivity was significantly correlated with disease recurrence (p = 0.01), lymphatic invasion (p = 0.03), and vascular invasion (p = 0.03) in stage I cases. Conclusions Only HER-2 was associated with the recurrence of stage I gastric cancer. HER-2-positive stage I gastric cancer requires additional therapy despite curative resection.Seonhoo KimYeon-Ji KimWoo Chul ChungThe Korean Association of Internal Medicinearticlestomach neoplasmsrecurrencegenes erbb-2MedicineRENThe Korean Journal of Internal Medicine, Vol 36, Iss 6, Pp 1327-1337 (2021)
