Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to present the clinical guidelines and traditional Korean medicines for gastric cancer.
Results: Gastric cancer is the second most common cancer in Korea. Recent studies have reported that applying integrative
Oriental and Western medicine can suppress the tumor, improve the survival, the immune system, and the quality of life in
gastric cancer. However, there still is no unified protocol for gastric cancer treatment, which produces difficulty in clinical
applications. In Korea, a “Synopsis on the Clinical Practice Guidelines of Gastric Cancer” was published by the Korean Journal
of Gastroenterology in 2014. In China, Oriental medicine clinical practice guidelines were published for the first time in 2014.
The present author proposed “Clinical Practice Guidelines of Korean Medicine for Gastric Cancer” in 2014, but there is a need
for more advanced guidelines with reference to the aforementioned Oriental and Western guidelines. This study will be helpful
for understanding and building systems for integrative gastric cancer treatment.
Conclusions: Further studies on integrative gastric cancer treatment are needed to improve the survival of gastric cancer
patients and build the clinical practice guidelines for gastric cancer.
