Summary

This study tested whether adding the immunotherapy drug spartalizumab to standard chemotherapy (FLOT) before and after surgery could help people with resectable stomach cancer. 67 adults with early-stage, operable stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer received the combination. The main goal was to see if the cancer completely disappeared in the tissue removed during surgery.
