HLX22 plus trastuzumab and chemo for HER2+ stomach cancer
This trial tests adding a new drug, HLX22, to the standard combination of trastuzumab and chemotherapy for people with HER2-positive stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that hasn't been treated yet. The goal is to see if this three-drug mix works better than the usual two-drug approach.

Amivantamab for advanced colon or rectal cancer with specific tumor traits
This Phase 1/2 study tests amivantamab alone or combined with standard chemotherapy to treat advanced or metastatic colon or rectal cancer. You may be able to join if your tumor has the right genetic profile (typically “wild-type” for certain genes and no HER2 amplification) and your cancer has measurable or biopsy-able lesions.

What taking part in a cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
