Immunotherapy and chemo with surgery for limited-spread stomach cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 antibody) plus chemotherapy or targeted therapy, followed by surgery, for people with stomach cancer that has spread to a limited number of other sites. The goal is to see if this approach can help shrink the cancer enough to make surgery more effective.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 79 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer (a specific type) and your PD-L1 status is known.
- Your tumor has a normal DNA repair system (pMMR or MSS).
- The main tumor in your stomach can be removed by surgery, and you have limited spread to one or two other areas (like lymph nodes, liver, lung, or lining of the abdomen).
- You have not had any previous cancer treatment for this disease.

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 trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab) and a low-dose weekly chemotherapy regimen before surgery for locally advanced stomach cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if this approach helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
This Phase 3 trial studies whether adding an immune medicine called PD-1 (given as an “inhibitor”) to standard chemotherapy and chemoradiation after stomach/GEJ cancer surgery can lower the risk of cancer coming back. You may qualify if you’ve had surgery removing the tumor and lymph nodes showed higher-risk disease.
This trial tests combining chemotherapy (SOX), an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab), and low-dose radiation before surgery for people with locally advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. The goal is to see if this combination shrinks tumors more effectively.
This trial is testing a combination of three medicines—an immunotherapy (anti-PD-1), an immune booster (thymalfasin), and a chemotherapy regimen (SOX)—given before surgery to shrink stage III stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer and improve outcomes.
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (Disitamab Vedotin, Toripalimab, and XELOX) given before and after surgery for gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment helps shrink the tumor and prevent it from coming back.
