HER2-Positive Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma (GEA) Overview

HER2-positive gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GEA) is a highly aggressive malignancy of the stomach and gastroesophageal junction, fundamentally driven by the oncogenic amplification of the ERBB2 gene. This amplification triggers the profound overexpression of the HER2 receptor tyrosine kinase, fueling rampant tumor proliferation, angiogenesis, and resistance to apoptosis. Because early symptoms are notoriously insidious, patients classically present with advanced progressive dysphagia, early satiety, and profound unintentional weight loss, frequently precluding curative surgical resection. Diagnosis mandates rigorous endoscopic biopsy with dedicated immunohistochemistry (IHC) and in situ hybridization (FISH) to detect HER2 overexpression, which is uniquely spatially heterogeneous in GEA compared to breast cancer. The modern therapeutic paradigm for unresectable or metastatic disease has recently undergone a major evolution; while historical frontline care relied solely on combining the anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody trastuzumab with platinum-fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy, the current definitive standard of care now actively integrates immune checkpoint blockade (such as pembrolizumab) into this regimen to synergistically overcome tumor immune evasion. Furthermore, for relapsed or refractory disease, the revolutionary targeted antibody-drug conjugate trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) has been established as the definitive subsequent therapy, profoundly altering the survival trajectory of this historically intractable malignancy.
