A new Working Group Report from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) provides recommendations for implementing population-based Helicobacter pylori screen-and-treat strategies for gastric cancer prevention. The Report refers to a range of key considerations for implementation of these strategies for primary prevention, including needs and readiness assessments, choosing screening methods and treatment regimens, antibiotic stewardship, process and outcome measures for improving quality and equity, and the cost–benefits of the strategies. A series of videos with the chapter authors provides summaries of the contents and an overview of the Report.
The Working Group, which constituted 35 experts from 20 countries and territories, was convened to meet in February 2025 as part of the Accelerating Gastric Cancer Reduction in Europe through Helicobacter pylori Eradication (EUROHELICAN) project. Although the EUROHELICAN project is co-funded by the European Union, the scope of the Working Group Meeting and the Working Group Report are global.
