Study blood, tumor tissue, and preferences to predict stomach cancer response
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at stomach (or stomach–esophagus junction) cancer tissue, treatment details, and patient-reported experiences to better predict how you may respond to standard chemotherapy. It may help personalize future treatment by identifying markers that connect your tumor environment and your expected outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have stomach or stomach–esophagus junction cancer confirmed by biopsy and it may be removed by surgery
- You’re being treated with the usual chemotherapy plan: 5-fluorouracil or capecitabine plus oxaliplatin, possibly with docetaxel
- You are 18 years or older
- You can provide informed consent (or the study can use a substitute consent process if you can’t be reached)
- Your doctors have usable tumor tissue and medical details for the study (especially if part is retrospective)
- You’re willing to let the study use your own samples for research and questionnaires

This trial looks at tiny pieces of DNA found outside cells in stomach tissue to better understand how gastric (stomach) cancer starts and progresses. It may help future patients by improving how doctors study stomach cancer from biopsy and surgical samples.
This research study analyzes tumor tissue samples to understand why some patients respond better to chemotherapy after gastric cancer surgery. By studying how genes are processed in cancer cells, researchers hope to predict which patients will benefit most from treatment.
This trial uses a combination of CT scans, ultrasound, and blood tests to predict how well chemotherapy will work for people with locally advanced gastric cancer. The goal is to personalize treatment by identifying who will respond best to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
This study looks for metabolic markers in your blood and tumor tissue to help find stomach cancer early, predict your prognosis, and watch for recurrence. If you qualify, you would give blood and tumor samples for testing.
This study uses special blood tests to detect cancer DNA and help doctors decide the best treatment plan for gastric cancer. The goal is to improve outcomes by personalizing therapy based on how your cancer responds.
This study is looking for people with stomach discomfort who are coming to this hospital for an endoscopy. Researchers will use the test results to help catch stomach cancer early and keep an eye on it after surgery.
