Recruiting studies
- NCT07096895Recruiting
Special Endoscopic Procedure for Blocked Bile Duct Access
This trial tests a special endoscopic procedure (EDEE) to reach the bile duct when the usual pathway is blocked, which can happen with certain benign or malignant conditions. If standard methods can't access the area, this approach may offer an alternative.
DüsseldorfAges 18 years+ - NCT07474324RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted therapy plus chemo vs chemo alone for stage 3 stomach cancer

Combination Cancer Drugs Before Surgery for Stomach Cancer
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy and chemotherapy drugs before surgery can help treat stomach cancer that has a specific protein marker (claudin 18.2). The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for patients whose cancer can be surgically removed.
Shanghai, Huangpu DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT06679244Recruiting
New surgery for upper stomach cancer
This trial tests a new surgical technique for patients with cancer in the upper part of the stomach or where the stomach meets the esophagus. It aims to see if the new approach is safe and effective for removing the tumor and nearby lymph nodes.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT07708220Recruiting

TantaAges 2–18 - NCT06669663Recruiting
Hypoxia and metabolism in esophageal and stomach cancer
This trial looks at how low oxygen levels (hypoxia) affect the metabolism of esophageal and stomach cancers. It may help doctors understand why some cancers grow or resist treatment, possibly leading to better therapies.
LondonAges 18–90 - NCT07427992Recruiting
Study of zolbetuximab for stomach cancer with claudin 18.2
This trial is looking at a drug called zolbetuximab, given with chemotherapy, for people with a certain type of stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread and has high levels of a protein called claudin 18.2. The goal is to see how well it works in real-world settings.
MilanAges 18–100 - NCT07362186RecruitingPhase 3
LM-108 with Toripalimab vs Paclitaxel for advanced stomach cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two immunotherapy drugs (LM-108 and Toripalimab) against a standard chemotherapy drug (Paclitaxel) for people with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has a specific marker called CCR8. It may be an option if you have already tried a first-line therapy and your cancer has progressed or you had side effects from chemotherapy.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07392268Recruiting
Testing AI to help during endoscopic surgery
This trial tests an AI system to help guide doctors during a minimally invasive procedure to remove early-stage lesions in the esophagus, stomach, or colon. If you're scheduled for this surgery, the AI may help make it safer and more precise.
Hong KongAges 18–85 - NCT05872685RecruitingPhase 2
Perioperative chemo plus serplulimab for specific stomach cancers
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding serplulimab (an immune medicine) to standard chemotherapy before and/or around surgery can improve outcomes for people with certain locally advanced stomach cancer. You may get serplulimab or a placebo, and researchers will compare results to see if the immune add-on helps.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT07312890Recruiting
Ultrasound to check stomach fullness in ICU patients
This trial tests whether a bedside ultrasound can measure how full the stomach is in patients on a breathing machine who are receiving liquid nutrition through a tube. If it works, doctors may avoid complications and feed patients more safely.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT06510010RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus H. pylori treatment for advanced stomach cancer
This trial tests whether adding H. pylori bacteria treatment to standard chemotherapy (before and after surgery) can improve outcomes for people with locally advanced stomach cancer. It combines oxaliplatin and S-1 chemo with antibiotics to clear the infection.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT05729646RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery chemotherapy with toripalimab for dMMR stomach cancer
This trial studies whether adding toripalimab (an immune therapy) to chemotherapy before and around surgery can improve outcomes for people with certain mismatch repair–deficient stomach cancers. It mainly targets tumors that are dMMR and not HER2-positive.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT07274579Enrolling by invitation
AI tool for gastric cancer protein testing
This trial tests an artificial intelligence model that helps doctors interpret a specific protein test (CLDN18.2) in stomach cancer tissue samples. It may help guide future treatment decisions.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07355374Recruiting
Balloon dilation during esophageal cancer surgery
This trial tests whether expanding a balloon inside the esophagus during keyhole surgery can reduce a serious complication called anastomotic leak. If you have esophageal cancer and are scheduled for a minimally invasive Ivor Lewis esophagectomy, you may be eligible.
Basel, Canton of Basel-CityAges 18 years+ - NCT05762991Recruiting
AI test to help diagnose stomach bacteria and early stomach changes
This trial checks whether an artificial intelligence (computer) system can help diagnose Helicobacter pylori (a common stomach bacteria) and early stomach “premalignant” changes using endoscopy results. It may help doctors spot problems more accurately when you have a scheduled scope.
TaipeiAges 20–80 - NCT07254715RecruitingPhase 4
Itopride for stomach issues from semaglutide in diabetic women
This trial tests if itopride can help with stomach problems caused by semaglutide in diabetic women having a hysterectomy. It aims to see if this combination can improve symptoms like slow stomach emptying.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 40–60 - NCT07643298Recruiting
Lidocaine through feeding tube to reduce nausea after weight-loss surgery
This study tests whether delivering lidocaine (a numbing medication) through a feeding tube during weight-loss surgery can reduce nausea and vomiting afterward. You would receive this medication as part of the surgery procedure to see if it helps you feel better in recovery.

- How do I know if I qualify for a gastric 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 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.
