Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Our understanding of the biology of gastric cancer (GC) has substantially improved over the last decade, leading to advances in targeted therapies and novel therapeutic approaches.
Recent breakthroughs in potential therapeutic candidates for GC, as well as innovations in neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation treatment for GC, will be discussed in this Special Issue. This Special Issue will also discuss the roles of emerging therapeutics in both clinical and investigational fields, such as rational and structure-based drug design, which have the potential to improve the clinical outcome of these illnesses. Reviews and research papers are both welcome.
Regarding GC, potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following: experimental therapeutics, drug candidates, drug repurposing, drug target discovery, drug screening, artificial intelligence in drug discovery, computational methods for drug repurposing and drug design, molecular dynamics, and molecular docking.
