Investigation of the Proportion of Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 Protein Overexpression of Gastric Adenocarcinoma and Prognostic Effect of HER2, and Analysis of Practice Pattern of Herceptin Use in Stage IV Gastric Cancer

Conditions
Stomach Neoplasms
Registration Number
NCT02136836
Lead Sponsor
Yonsei University
Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to investigate the proportion of HER2 overexpression in gastric cancer patients group, to evaluate the relation of HER2 overexpression with prognosis, and to analyze the proportion of herceptin applied to patients in clinical field. Furthermore, the investigators are going to reevaluate the clinical benefit of Herceptin for survival prolongation compared to chemotherapy only.
