Study of stomach and esophagus cancer samples
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at stomach (gastric) and esophagus cancer, using clinical information and tissue samples. It may help researchers better understand these cancers and improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older
- You have been diagnosed with stomach cancer or esophagus cancer, or you have a higher inherited risk for these cancers
- You (or your family) have a personal or family history of stomach or esophagus cancer
- You must be able to provide information and/or tissue samples as part of the study

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study collects small tissue samples from people who already need an endoscopy (EGD) and/or surgery for esophagus or stomach-related problems. The goal is to help researchers learn more about gastroesophageal cancers and related conditions.
This study keeps an organized record of people diagnosed with esophagus, gastroesophageal junction, or stomach cancer. It helps researchers learn from real-world outcomes, based on health information collected over time.
This study collects information and, if you already need blood tests or procedures, may take extra small tissue samples (biopsies) to better understand esophageal-related conditions. It may help researchers learn about risk and future management for people with certain esophagus or reflux-related diagnoses.
This study looks at how surgery for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) works, and collects tumor samples to study them under the microscope and by DNA testing. Your results may help researchers better predict tumor behavior and guide future treatment.
This study collects blood and biopsy tissue from people who are having an upper endoscopy at UNC for Barrett’s esophagus or esophageal cancer. The samples help researchers build a biorepository to study these conditions and support future research.
This study looks for cancer-related material in blood, urine, and sometimes bone marrow. It may help researchers understand how to detect cancer activity and track it over time using less invasive tests.
