nearby lymph nodes. Stage II: Cancer has spread further through layers of the stomach. More distant
lymph nodes may be involved. Stage III: Cancer has spread through all layers of the stomach, or is
affecting more distant lymph nodes. Stage IV: Cancer has spread to nearby tissues and organs, or is
spread to more distant areas of the body through the lymphatic system.
