3.Patients should consent to optional provision of a sample of blood (30 ml) and urine (10 ml) at basal time and every month during neoadjuvant, before surgery, one month after surgery, at the end of adjuvant treatment and every 4 months during follow-up (in order that specific correlative marker assays could be performed);
4.Patients should also consent to optional provision of available histological tissue (e.g. bioptic and surgical tissue) in order that correlative marker assays could be performed;
5.Histological or cytological diagnosis of GC;
6.Clinical staging of GC cT2-4/cN-any/cM0 or cT-any/cN+/cM0 (according to the 8th edition of the UICC TNM classification performed with thoraco-abdominal CT scan, ecoendoscopy and esophagogastroduodenoscopy performed within 4 weeks prior to randomization;
7.No prior treatments (chemo or radiotherapy);
8.Measurable disease, defined in accordance with RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) criteria version 1.1, evaluated with ecoendoscopy, esophagogastroduodenoscopy and thoraco-abdominal CT scan;
9.Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) score of 0 or 1;
10.Adequate organ function assessed within 4 weeks prior to randomization including:
a.Hematologic: absolute neutrophil count (ANC) = 1.5 x 109/L, platelets = 100 x 109/L, haemoglobin = 9.0 g/dL;
