Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Aged 18–75 years, male or female; 2. Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of gastric cancer; 3. Have not received neoadjuvant therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) or other immunotherapies, and are planned to receive neoadjuvant therapy with the standard oxaliplatin plus S-1 (tegafur-gimeracil-oteracil) regimen; 4. Have a clear clinical stage and meet the criteria for receiving neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgical resection; 5. Expected survival >= 3 months; 6. Routine blood test, liver function, renal function, and cardiac function are within the safe range for drug administration; 7. Able to understand the study content and sign written informed consent; 8. Willing and able to complete visits, treatment, and follow-up as required by the protocol.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Known allergy to green tea extract or EGCG. 2. Previous severe intolerance or severe allergic reaction to chemotherapeutic agents or immunotherapeutic agents. 3. Presence of active autoimmune disease. 4. Long-term use of immunosuppressants (e.g., glucocorticoids, cyclosporine, etc.). 5. Patients who have received or plan to receive neoadjuvant therapy with immunotherapy. 6. Pregnant or breastfeeding women. 7. Major organ dysfunction, such as severe cardiac dysfunction, severe hepatic insufficiency, severe renal insufficiency, or other conditions that make the patient unsuitable for neoadjuvant therapy. 8. Concurrent presence of another malignancy. 9. Severe infection or other acute illness that may affect study safety or compliance. 10. Inability to understand or comply with protocol requirements, making it difficult to complete visits or follow-up as expected. 11. Recent participation in another clinical trial that may interfere with the study intervention or outcome assessment.
