Recruiting studies
- NCT04455282Recruiting

Drug combo before & after surgery for HER2+ stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy) before and after surgery for locally advanced HER2-positive stomach cancer. It aims to see if this treatment can improve outcomes for patients whose cancer has not yet spread.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - 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.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT06138223Recruiting
Exercise and diet for incurable esophagus or stomach cancer
This study tests whether an exercise and nutrition program can improve quality of life for people with incurable esophageal or stomach cancer. It is designed to help you feel better and stay active during treatment.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT05644431Recruiting
Study of immune environment in operable stomach cancer
This study looks at how the immune system behaves in stomach or lower esophagus cancer before standard (planned) surgery. It may help researchers understand which immune features relate to outcomes and treatment response.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT05514769Recruiting
Surgery type comparison for early-to-mid stomach cancer
This trial compares two different stomach cancer surgeries after removing the tumor, to see which works better for patients with stomach adenocarcinoma. It may help determine the safest approach and best recovery outcomes for people whose cancer has not spread.
Nanchong, SichuanAges 18–85 - NCT05332002RecruitingPhase 2
Study chemotherapy plus immunotherapy for HER2-negative esophageal cancer

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for gastroesophageal cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 164 recruiting gastroesophageal 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 gastroesophageal 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 gastroesophageal 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.
