NCT ID NCT03223376

First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 17 times

Summary

This study tested a new combination of two drugs (fruquintinib and paclitaxel) in 703 people with advanced stomach cancer that had gotten worse after initial treatment. The goal was to see if the combo could help people live longer and slow the cancer's growth compared to paclitaxel alone. The approach aims to control the disease, not cure it, as ongoing management is needed.
