Recruiting studies
- NCT04389632RecruitingPhase 1
Sigvotatug vedotin for advanced solid tumors that spread
This early-stage study tests a drug called sigvotatug vedotin in people with advanced solid cancers that cannot be removed or have spread. It aims to see how well the treatment works and what side effects it causes.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT04290806Recruiting
SAPHIR registry for advanced stomach and esophagus cancer
This registry collects information from people with stage IV (metastatic) stomach or esophagus cancers who are about to start their first medicines to control the disease. It may help researchers understand which treatments are used and how patients do over time.
Multiple LocationsAges 18 years+ - NCT06266299RecruitingPhase 1
Study of KK2269 for adults with solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called KK2269 for adults with solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective, possibly as a treatment option for certain cancers like lung or stomach cancer.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07290985RecruitingPhase 2
Can biomarkers guide organ-sparing treatment for stomach and esophagus cancer?
This trial tests if using specific biomarkers (like HER2 and PD-L1) can help choose the best treatment to potentially avoid surgery. It aims to preserve the stomach or esophagus while effectively treating the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04840264RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy for stomach cancer with blocked intestines
This Phase 2 trial tests a chemotherapy combination (docetaxel, oxaliplatin, and 5-FU) in people with stomach or gastroesophageal cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen and is causing an inoperable bowel blockage. It aims to shrink or control the blockage and cancer when surgery cannot be done.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07556640RecruitingPhase 2
Drug combination for stomach cancer with abdominal spread
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy drugs (LM-302, S-1, and paclitaxel) with or without an immune-boosting drug (cadonilimab) for gastric cancer that has spread to the abdominal lining. The goal is to shrink tumors and improve survival in patients whose cancer cells show a specific protein marker called Claudin 18.2.
Shanghai, Huangpu DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT05753306RecruitingPhase 2
Robot surgery plus heated chemo for limited spread stomach cancer
This study tests a “robot-assisted” surgery to remove stomach cancer in the belly lining (peritoneum) along with heated chemotherapy placed inside the abdomen. It’s for people whose cancer has spread only in the peritoneum, aiming to control disease when there’s a good chance of removing it all.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–80 - NCT06163729RecruitingPhase 2
Testing camrelizumab plus chemo and radiation before/after surgery for stomach-esophagus cancer
This trial tests combining the immunotherapy drug camrelizumab with chemotherapy and radiation before and after surgery for a specific type of stomach-esophagus cancer. It aims to see if this approach helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07018570RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo, immunotherapy, and radiation for stomach cancer before surgery
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (FLOT), an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab), and short-course radiation before surgery for gastroesophageal junction cancer. The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes.
Kashiwa, ChibaAges 18 years+ - NCT06644352Recruiting
Comparing right vs. left chest surgery for junction cancer
This study compares two surgical approaches (right side of the chest vs. left side of the chest) for removing a certain type of cancer at the gastroesophageal junction. It aims to find which approach leads to better outcomes.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT06985602RecruitingPhase 2
Adebrelimab with Chemo and Radiation for Stomach Cancer
This trial tests a drug called adebrelimab along with chemotherapy and radiation before surgery for stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread locally or has limited spread. It aims to see if this combination can help make the tumor removable and improve outcomes.
Nanjing, ProvinceAges 18–80 - NCT05733000RecruitingPhase 2
CPI-613 plus hydroxychloroquine with chemo for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a drug called CPI-613 (devimistat) combined with hydroxychloroquine along with either 5-fluorouracil or gemcitabine chemo. It’s for people with advanced cancers that have stopped responding to standard treatments, aiming to shrink tumors and slow cancer growth.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05651594RecruitingPhase 2
Propranolol with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether adding propranolol (a common blood-pressure/heart medicine) can improve outcomes when used with pembrolizumab plus standard chemotherapy. It is for people with advanced esophageal or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma that cannot be removed with surgery.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04908566RecruitingPhase 2
PD-1 immunotherapy plus chemotherapy before and after gastric surgery
This trial studies whether adding a PD-1 immune therapy to chemotherapy around the time of surgery can improve outcomes for people with locally advanced stomach or stomach–esophagus junction cancer. It aims to better control the cancer before and reduce the chance it comes back after surgery.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07213557RecruitingPhase 2
Simvastatin with immunotherapy for ARID1A-mutated stomach cancer
This trial tests whether adding the cholesterol drug simvastatin to standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy can help people with a specific type of gastroesophageal cancer (ARID1A mutated, HER2 negative). It is for patients who have not had prior treatment for advanced disease.
Naples, ItaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT07285044RecruitingPhase 2
Home cancer treatment program for Florida panhandle residents
This study tests whether people with certain cancers can safely receive their regular intravenous treatments at home instead of coming to the clinic. It aims to make treatment more convenient and improve satisfaction, especially for those living in the Florida Panhandle.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04615013RecruitingPhase 1
NBTXR3 with chemoradiation for esophageal cancer treatment
This early-phase study tests adding NBTXR3 (a special treatment given into the tumor) to standard chemotherapy and radiation for esophageal cancer. The goal is to see if it can improve cancer control and to learn about safety and dosing.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 40–75 - NCT06265285RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab at home vs. clinic for cancer treatment
This study compares giving the immunotherapy drug nivolumab as a shot under the skin at home versus in the clinic. It is for people with certain cancers who are already taking or starting nivolumab.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05969860RecruitingPhase 2
Home cancer treatment vs clinic treatment for advanced cancer
This Phase 2 trial compares giving certain standard cancer infusions at home versus in a clinic. It may help people avoid clinic visits while still receiving the same cancer treatment safely.

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.
