This early-phase trial is testing whether combining two drugs—pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy that helps the immune system attack cancer) and lenvatinib (which blocks enzymes that help tumors grow)—can shrink tumors in people with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal cancer that …

This early-phase trial tests whether a shorter course (2 weeks instead of 5) of chemoradiotherapy before standard chemotherapy and surgery is safe and effective for people with resectable stomach cancer. About 25 participants will receive the shortened radiation combined with che…

This phase II trial is testing whether adding chemotherapy to the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab works better than atezolizumab alone for patients with a specific genetic type of stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer (MSI-H/dMMR). The study involves 240 adults with localiz…

This early-phase trial tests whether adding an immune-boosting drug (aldesleukin) to standard chemotherapy and another immunotherapy (nivolumab) can help control stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. About 15 adults with this advanced cancer will receive th…

This early-phase trial tests an experimental drug called IPH5301, which targets a protein called CD73 on cancer cells. The study involves 27 people with advanced solid tumors, including breast, lung, and pancreatic cancers. In the first part, IPH5301 is given alone to find a safe…

This phase 2 trial is testing a five-drug combination for people with advanced esophageal, stomach, or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has worsened after initial treatment. The combination includes immune cells from healthy donors, two immunotherapy drugs, and two standard …

This early-phase trial is testing a new drug called NTX-1088, which targets a protein on cancer cells, either alone or combined with the immunotherapy pembrolizumab. The study involves 90 people with advanced solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed. The main goals are …

This early-phase trial is testing the safety and best dose of the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel when given directly into the abdomen (intraperitoneal) for people with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. The study involves 27 pa…

This phase II trial is testing whether giving the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab before standard chemotherapy and radiation can help prevent stomach cancer from coming back. It includes 40 people with operable stomach cancer that has either a specific DNA repair problem (mismat…

This early-phase trial explores whether two experimental PET/CT tracers, 68Ga-FAPI-46 and 68Ga-PSMA-11, can accurately highlight various non-prostate cancers, including breast, lung, and pancreatic tumors. Participants scheduled for surgery will receive the tracers before their s…

This phase 1 trial is testing a new imaging tracer called 68Ga-FAPI-46 to see where it collects in normal and cancerous tissues. About 30 people with various solid tumors or blood cancers will receive the tracer and then undergo a PET/CT scan. The goal is to understand how the tr…

This study tests whether curcumin, a compound found in turmeric, can prevent stomach cancer in people with chronic atrophic gastritis or gastric intestinal metaplasia. About 50 participants will receive either curcumin or a placebo for a period, and researchers will measure chang…
