Surgery for stomach cancer that spread to the liver
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests if removing the stomach tumor and liver spots together can help people with stomach cancer that has spread only to the liver. It is for those who are healthy enough for surgery and chemotherapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have stomach or GEJ cancer that has spread to the liver, but less than 30% of your liver is involved.
- Your main tumor can be removed with surgery, based on scans.
- You are healthy enough for surgery (ASA score 3 or lower) and can care for yourself (WHO score 0 or 1).
- You are able to receive a specific chemotherapy regimen called FLOT.

This study observes people with stomach cancer that has spread to the liver. It looks at how the disease progresses and how patients respond to their usual treatments over time.
This trial tests if surgery to remove the stomach and some tumors, after a few months of chemo, helps people whose stomach cancer has spread to only a few nearby spots (like the lining of the belly, liver, or lymph nodes) live longer compared to chemo alone.
This trial studies whether a specific surgery that removes the colon’s associated tissue (and part of the nearby stomach-area tissue) improves outcomes for certain colon cancer cases that are at risk of spreading there. If you qualify, your doctors will compare your treatment approach as part of the study to see if it helps.
This trial compares two surgical approaches for removing liver metastases from colon cancer: anatomical resection versus nonanatomical resection. It aims to see which approach works better for people whose tumors have certain genetic changes or are on the right side of the colon.
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (conversion therapy), surgery, and radiation for people with stomach cancer that has spread only to lymph nodes behind the stomach. The goal is to see if this approach can help shrink the cancer and improve outcomes.
This trial tests if surgery to remove visible cancer in the belly combined with heated chemotherapy placed directly into the abdomen can help people with stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the belly. It is for patients who are well enough to undergo major surgery and meet specific health requirements.
