What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Pathologic Complete Response (pCR)	The pCR refers to the proportion of subjects with no residual tumor cells in the primary lesion based on Becker Grade 1a.	From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Major Pathological Response (MPR)	The proportion of subjects with resectable gastric cancer after neoadjuvant therapy who have less than 10% residual tumor cells in the primary lesion.	From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12weeks
R0 Resection Rate	The R0 resection rate refers to the proportion of subjects with resectable gastric cancer who complete R0 resection in the total number of subjects operated. R0 resection refers to microscopically negative margins.	From enrollment to the end of treatment at about 12 weeks
Event-free Survival (EFS)	The EFS refers to the time from the date of the random enrollment to disease progression, recurrence, or death (whichever occurs first).	24 months
Overall Survival (OS)	The OS refers to the time from the date of the random enrollment to death from any cause. For subjects who are still alive at the time of the last follow-up, OS is censored at the time of the last follow-up. For subjects lost to follow-up, their OS is censored at the last confirmed alive time before loss to follow-up. The censored OS is defined as the time from the date of the first dose to the time of censoring.	36 months
Chemotherapy completion rate	The proportion of patients who completed 4 cycles of FLOT chemotherapy in the total number of enrolled patients	8 weeks
