- NCT06123338RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus chemo and trastuzumab for HER2+ stomach cancer
This trial tests adding pembrolizumab to standard trastuzumab and chemotherapy for people with HER2-positive stomach or esophageal cancer that can be fully removed with surgery. The goal is to see if this combination improves outcomes before and after surgery.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05671822RecruitingPhase 2
Study of targeted drugs for HER2-positive advanced stomach cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether SHR-A1811—given with other medicines—works safely and effectively for people with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has high HER2. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, especially if previous treatment didn’t work.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07289997RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for advanced AFP-producing gastric cancer
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (iparomlimab and tuvonralimab) plus a targeted therapy (apatinib) and a chemotherapy drug (irinotecan hydrochloride) for people with a rare type of advanced stomach cancer called AFP-producing gastric cancer. It is for patients whose cancer did not respond to previous immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 18 years+ - NCT05208762RecruitingPhase 1
PD-L1 antibody drug study for advanced lung and head/neck cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests a new experimental drug (PF-08046054/SGN-PDL1V) in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatment or can’t use it. It is designed to see how the drug works and how safe it is, with a focus on tumors that have PD-L1 seen on prior lab testing.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03259867RecruitingPhase 2
TACE plus immune therapy for liver or stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination treatment using a targeted liver procedure plus an immune “checkpoint” medicine to slow cancer growth. It may help people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) or metastatic stomach cancer when standard treatments have not worked.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT04613570Recruiting
Follow-up endoscopy plan for early stomach changes
This study looks at how often and how intensely to do follow-up stomach camera exams (endoscopy) with small biopsies for people at risk of stomach cancer. It may help personalize your follow-up schedule based on your specific stomach findings.
PortoAges 45 years+ - NCT05930860Recruiting
Endoscopic treatment for certain superficial stomach growths
This trial studies how safe and effective a procedure called endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is for treating certain early, superficial stomach (gastric) growths. It may be an option if your growth fits the endoscopy criteria and you are not a good candidate for stomach surgery.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06873659RecruitingPhase 1
Testing SON-DP for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called SON-DP for people with advanced solid tumors that haven't responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and helps shrink or control the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07544589RecruitingPhase 1
Testing DISP-10 for Advanced Gastrointestinal Cancers
This early-stage trial tests a new experimental therapy called DISP-10 in patients with advanced cancers of the stomach, esophagus, or colon that have spread. The goal is to see if this treatment can help shrink tumors and how safe it is.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01915225Recruiting
Collecting solid tumor samples during cancer biopsy or surgery
This trial collects tissue (samples) from people who are already scheduled for biopsy or surgery for certain solid cancers. It aims to improve future testing and research while checking that taking the sample is safe and doesn’t add extra risk.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2 years+ - NCT06496789RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemo before surgery for stomach cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (serplulimab) combined with standard chemotherapy before surgery for patients with locally advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
TianjinAges 18–75 - NCT05699655RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
New pre-surgery treatment for advanced stomach cancer with immunotherapy
This trial tests a new combination (tislelizumab plus apatinib and chemotherapy) before surgery for certain advanced stomach cancers, compared with the standard chemotherapy plus S1. The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes before and around surgery.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT06414733RecruitingPhase 1
HER-2 B Cell Peptide Vaccine for Advanced Cancers
This trial tests a vaccine that helps your immune system attack cancer cells that have HER2 or EGFR proteins. It is for people with advanced breast or gastrointestinal cancer whose disease has worsened after standard treatment.
Indianpolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07224750Recruiting
A blood test to find early signs of gastrointestinal cancer
This study is testing a blood-based test to detect unique molecules (called miRNAs) that may signal the presence of several types of gut or digestive system cancers. The goal is to develop a simple screening tool that could catch these cancers earlier.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07517419Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Pressurized chemotherapy for gastric cancer spread in abdomen
This trial tests a specialized chemotherapy delivery method called PIPAC—where chemotherapy is sprayed directly into the abdomen under pressure—for patients with gastric cancer that has spread to the abdominal lining. The goal is to deliver stronger doses of chemotherapy directly to where the cancer is, potentially helping patients who aren't candidates for major surgery.
Hong KongAges 18–80 - NCT05323929Recruiting
Checks how scar depth after stomach tumor removal affects healing
This study looks at early stomach cancer treated with ESD, a procedure to remove the tumor through the stomach lining, and how the depth of the scar relates to healing. It may help doctors predict better outcomes and improve the procedure for suitable patients.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06222645Recruiting
Comparing two dyes in gastrointestinal surgery
This trial compares two dyes used during stomach or intestine surgery to see which helps surgeons see the blood flow better. It may help decide which dye works best for safe reconnections.
Yantai, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT06759064RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Intraperitoneal Immunotherapy and Bone Drug for Stomach Cancer Belly Fluid
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—one that helps your immune system fight cancer (immune checkpoint inhibitor) and one that strengthens bones (zoledronic acid)—given directly into the belly (intraperitoneal) to control fluid buildup caused by stomach cancer. It may help people with moderate to severe malignant ascites who have not had local belly treatments or immunotherapy recently.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06766305RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
QL1706 combined with SOX before and after stomach cancer surgery

Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT07175155Recruiting
Breathing device and oxygen for endoscopy in severe obesity
This study tests a special breathing device (a tube placed in the throat) combined with high-flow oxygen through the nose during sedation for endoscopy in people with severe obesity. It aims to see if this combination helps keep oxygen levels stable and makes the procedure safer.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for gastric cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 589 recruiting gastric cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a gastric cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a gastric cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
