Gastric cancer overview Gastric cancer is the fourth most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second most common cause of cancer- related deaths worldwide 1,2 Despite an overall decrease in gastric cancer there is a growing incidence of gastro-esophageal (GE) junction tumors in developed countries 3 Advanced/metastatic gastric cancer has a poor prognosis Median 5-year survival rate of around 20% 2 There is an unmet need for more efficacious and less toxic treatment options in advanced GC 1.

Methods: QoL assessments 1. Vickery CW, et al. Eur J Cancer 2001; 37:966–971. 2. Blazeby JM, et al. Eur J Cancer 2004; 40:2260–2268. Evaluated in the full analysis set (FAS) population at Day 1 and every 3 weeks (prior to drug administration), until disease progression EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire (v 3.0): 1,2 Global health status, functional scales, symptom scales EORTC QLQ-ST022 questionnaire (disease-specific module for gastric cancer): 1,2 Symptom scales included items for disease, treatment-related symptoms, side effects, dysphagia, nutritional aspects, emotional problems The scoring range for both QLQ-C30 and QLQ-ST022 was from 0–100 Pain intensity assessed by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Analgesic consumption for gastric pain

16
Conclusions Trastuzumab + chemotherapy improves OS and PFS versus chemotherapy alone, without compromising QoL Disease-specific and symptom-specific scores improved over time in both treatment arms Pain intensity scores and use of analgesic medicine were similar between treatment arms Associated with prolonged PFS more patients in the trastuzumab + chemotherapy arm could benefit from the improved QoL compared to chemotherapy alone
