Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06445972RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing combination therapies for advanced stomach or esophageal cancer
This study tests new drug combinations for people with advanced stomach or esophageal cancer that worsened after first treatment. It aims to find better options for those whose tumors lack HER2.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07069712RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combos before and after surgery for stomach or esophageal cancer
This trial is testing new drug combinations given before and after surgery for stomach or esophageal cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if these treatments work better than standard care. You may be eligible if your tumor has certain markers and you haven't had treatment for this cancer yet.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06340711RecruitingPhase 2
Gene therapy plus Keytruda for advanced stomach or esophageal cancer
This study tests a new type of gene therapy (OBP-301) injected directly into the tumor, combined with the immunotherapy drug Keytruda (pembrolizumab), for people with advanced stomach, junction, or esophageal cancer. Researchers want to see if this combination can help when standard treatments have stopped working.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06324357RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zongertinib for HER2-positive cancers that have spread
This trial tests a new pill called zongertinib, alone or with other drugs, for people with HER2-positive cancers (like breast, stomach, or colorectal cancer) that have spread and are no longer responding to standard treatments. The goal is to find the best dose and see if it can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06901531RecruitingPhase 3
Study of zolbetuximab with pembrolizumab and chemo for gastric cancer
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (zolbetuximab, pembrolizumab, and chemotherapy) for people with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. It may be an option if your tumor has certain proteins (CLDN18.2 and PD-L1) and you haven't had chemotherapy for advanced disease.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07431281RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combo for advanced stomach cancer with CLDN18.2
This trial tests a new drug combination for people with advanced stomach cancer that has not been treated before. It looks at two groups: one with PD-L1 (a protein that helps decide if immunotherapy works), and one without. The treatment includes an antibody-drug conjugate (Sonesitatug Vedotin) plus standard chemotherapy, with or without an immunotherapy drug.
Wilkes-Barre, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07392892RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of PF-08634404 plus chemo for stomach and esophagus cancer
This trial tests a new study drug called PF-08634404 in combination with standard chemotherapy for people with stomach, gastroesophageal junction, or esophagus cancer that has spread. It aims to see if adding this drug helps the treatment work better.
Bensalem, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07001748RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing abdominal chemo plus standard chemo for stomach cancer spread
This trial tests adding the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel directly into the abdomen (intraperitoneal) along with standard IV chemotherapy for people with stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. The goal is to see if this combination helps control the cancer better than standard treatment alone.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07221149RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Pumitamig vs Nivolumab for untreated stomach or esophagus cancer
This trial compares two treatments for people with advanced stomach, gastroesophageal junction, or esophageal cancer that has not been treated before. One group gets pumitamig plus chemotherapy, the other gets nivolumab plus chemotherapy. The goal is to see which combination works better.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05482893RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Spevatamig for advanced stomach, pancreas, or bile duct cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Spevatamig (PT886), alone or with different chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy combinations, for people with certain advanced stomach, pancreatic, or bile duct cancers. The goal is to see if it shrinks tumors and is safe.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test study to watch for cancer coming back
This study looks at whether blood tests can detect signs that cancer may return after curative-intent treatment. You would have blood drawn around your usual follow-up visits for up to 5 years, and your de-identified health data would be shared with study investigators.
Broomall, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06764875RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combo for HER2-positive stomach cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy called rilvegostomig combined with standard chemotherapy and a targeted therapy (trastuzumab deruxtecan) for people with advanced HER2-positive stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has not been treated before.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges 40–75 - NCT03175224RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug APL-101 for lung or other tumors with MET changes
This Phase 2 study tests APL-101 to shrink advanced cancers that have certain MET-related changes, including specific MET mutations, MET gene amplification, or MET fusions. It may help people whose tumors have run out of standard treatment options.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05702229RecruitingPhase 2
Study of combined medicines for advanced stomach cancer with Claudin18.2
This Phase 2 study tests new combination treatments for advanced stomach or stomach-esophagus junction cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It may help people whose tumors are positive for a marker called Claudin18.2, which the study uses to choose who can receive the treatment.

What taking part in a gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma 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.
