Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether delivering FOLFOX chemotherapy directly into the arteries feeding the tumor can help control advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. The study includes 31 adults who cannot have surgery due to frailty or other health issues. The main goal is to see if this approach improves quality of life and slows disease progression.

What this could mean

Active substance

FOLFOX chemotherapy (oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin)

What this could lead to

If successful, this approach could offer a new treatment option for people with advanced gastric cancer who cannot have surgery, potentially improving tumor control and quality of life.
