Gastric cancer: predicting immune therapy side effects
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial studies whether blood tests before treatment can predict side effects from immunotherapy (PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors) in people with gastric cancer. If you are about to start this type of treatment, your participation could help doctors manage side effects better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have been diagnosed with gastric cancer (confirmed by tissue or cell sample).
- Your overall health is fair (ECOG score 0-2, meaning you can do daily activities with some help if needed).
- You have not received PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor treatment before.
- You are expected to live at least 3 more months.
- You are willing to follow the study plan and give signed consent.

This study looks at markers in your tumor to predict how well immunotherapy might work for you. It aims to create a model that helps doctors choose the best treatment for advanced gastric cancer.
This study checks blood and tissue biomarkers in people with advanced gastric cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. It looks at patients who have already had HIPEC plus a PD-1/PD-L1 antibody treatment, to better understand response and eligibility.
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs given before surgery for locally advanced gastric cancer that has a specific genetic marker (MSI-H or dMMR). The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes before removing it surgically.
This trial tests whether a blood test (called immune proteomics) can predict how well chemotherapy and immunotherapy work in people with stomach cancer. If you qualify, you would receive standard chemo or chemo plus immunotherapy before surgery, and researchers will study your blood to see if it can guide future treatment.
This trial uses artificial intelligence to analyze CT scans, blood, and tumor tissue to predict how well your cancer will respond to chemotherapy and immunotherapy before surgery. It aims to personalize treatment for locally advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer.
This study looks at how your body reacts to immunotherapy drugs (like PD-1 or CTLA-4 blockers) when given for the first time. It aims to predict side effects and help make treatment safer.
