Study of PLX-61639 for advanced SMARCA4-mutant solid tumors
This trial is testing a new drug called PLX-61639 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific SMARCA4 gene change. The drug aims to stop cancer growth by targeting the cells that lack this gene.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06123494RecruitingPhase 3
A trial of SHR-A1811 for HER2-positive gastric cancer
This trial tests a new drug, SHR-A1811, for people with HER2-positive stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has worsened after initial treatment. It aims to see if this drug can help when standard anti-HER2 therapy stops working.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - 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.

Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT05330910Recruiting
Repair of a stomach valve during sleeve weight-loss surgery
This trial tests whether doing a specific repair near the stomach valve (the gastroesophageal junction) during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy can help people with a loose valve. It is aimed at adults who have a particular endoscopy finding (Hill grade III) and choose this weight-loss surgery.
SingaporeAges 21–65 - NCT06925243RecruitingPhase 3

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for gastroesophageal junction?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 167 recruiting gastroesophageal junction 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 junction 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 junction 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.
