Table 1 Timeline of the clinical course
| Time | Key events and treatments | Response/outcome |
| At diagnosis | Diagnosis of gastric adenocarcinoma; palliative subtotal gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy; peritoneal metastasis found intraoperatively | Stage IV disease confirmed |
| 0-6 months after surgery | Capecitabine/oxaliplatin plus nivolumab (first-line) | Progressive disease with new liver metastasis and lymphadenopathy |
| After progression | Ramucirumab plus paclitaxel (second-line, 2 cycles) | Stopped due to peripheral neuropathy |
| Next 4 months | Ramucirumab plus trifluridine/tipiracil combined with autologous γδ T-cell infusions (7 cycles) | Radiologic complete response on computed tomography |
| After the response | Liver wedge resection of the treated lesion | No viable tumor cells (pathologic response) |
| Additional 3 months | Continuation of ramucirumab, trifluridine/tipiracil, and γδ T-cell infusion | No evidence of disease progression |
| Follow-up (≥ 24 months after completion) | Routine surveillance | No recurrence |
