Summary

This early-phase trial tests a new drug (CA-4948) combined with standard chemotherapy and immunotherapy for people with advanced stomach, esophageal, or gastroesophageal junction cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The study aims to find the safest dose and check if the combination helps control the disease. About 42 participants will take part, and those with a certain cancer marker (HER2 positive) will also receive an additional targeted therapy.
