Immunotherapy plus chemo vs. chemo alone for advanced stomach cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of chemotherapy with or without an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) for advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. It aims to see which combination works better and has fewer side effects.

This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation, chemotherapy, and an immunotherapy drug (AK112) for people with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has progressed after first-line treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
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 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 heated chemotherapy given directly into the belly (HIPEC), standard chemotherapy (SOX), and an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab) for people with advanced stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. The goal is to see if this triple therapy can shrink or control the cancer better than standard treatments.
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—sintilimab (an immunotherapy), nab-paclitaxel, and tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil—as a first treatment for stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink tumors and control the disease.
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) to standard chemotherapy before and after surgery can help treat stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. It is for people whose cancer has not spread to other organs and who are well enough to have surgery.
