Taurine with chemotherapy and immunotherapy for gastric cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding taurine to standard chemo-immunotherapy before surgery helps treat locally advanced gastric cancer. It may be an option for patients whose tumors are PD-L1 positive and can be fully removed with surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old
- You have been diagnosed with stage II or III gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has not spread to other organs and can be surgically removed
- Your tumor tests positive for PD-L1 (CPS score of 1 or higher)
- You have not used taurine in the past month
- Your cancer does not have a HER2-positive result
- You do not have active bleeding, blockage, or perforation in your stomach or intestines

Other trials that look related to this one.
This Phase 2 trial studies giving tislelizumab (an immune therapy) together with pre-surgery chemoradiation for locally advanced stomach or GEJ (esophagus-stomach junction) adenocarcinoma. It compares this approach to the standard treatment (chemoradiation plus surgery) to see if it improves outcomes.
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding two medicines (XELOX and tislelizumab) and another chemotherapy drug (PLD) around the time of surgery works better and is safe for people with stage III gastric (stomach) cancer. It is designed for tumors that are HER2-negative and PD-1/L1 positive.
This phase 3 study compares two versions of a first-time treatment for HER2-negative advanced stomach or gastroesophageal cancer, both including immunotherapy (sintilimab). It looks for a safer or more effective way to slow cancer growth or improve outcomes.
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (lenvatinib, tislelizumab, and CapeOX chemotherapy) as the first treatment for advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that is PD-L1 positive and has a low TMEscore. The goal is to see if this combination helps control the cancer better than standard treatments.
This trial tests whether adding an anti-cancer immune treatment and another targeted drug to standard chemotherapy after surgery can lower the chance of cancer coming back. It is for people whose blood test (ctDNA) shows leftover cancer-related DNA after surgery.
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) to standard chemotherapy after surgical removal of stomach cancer can prevent the cancer from returning in older adults (aged 65 and above). The study aims to see if this combination improves outcomes compared to chemotherapy alone.
