Randomization is open-label; however, pathological response and surgical margin status are assessed by two independent gastrointestinal pathologists blinded to treatment assignment. No crossover is permitted. The study schema is fixed: three to four 3-week cycles of protocol-specified therapy, mandatory restaging within 2 weeks after cycle 3, and curative-intent gastrectomy scheduled 4-6 weeks after the last dose.
