Breakthrough trial tests immune drug combo against aggressive stomach cancers

NCT ID NCT05008783

Summary

This large Phase 3 trial tested whether adding a new immune-boosting drug called AK104 to standard chemotherapy works better than chemotherapy alone for people with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal cancer. The study involved 610 adults who had not received prior treatment for their advanced cancer. Researchers compared how long patients lived and how well the cancer responded between the two treatment groups.
