Stomach cancer hope: new combo targets tumors after PD-1 failure

NCT ID NCT06417892

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jul 29, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study tests a combination of fruquintinib (a drug that blocks blood vessel growth to tumors) and chemotherapy (albumin-paclitaxel), with or without a PD-1 antibody, for people with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer whose first PD-1 treatment stopped working. The goal is to see if adding the PD-1 antibody again improves how long the cancer stays under control. About 60 adults will take part, and the study tracks side effects and survival.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
fruquintinib, albumin-paclitaxel (chemotherapy), and a PD-1 antibody
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a new second-line treatment option for advanced gastric cancer patients whose first PD-1 therapy stopped working.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study (60 people) in China, so results may not apply broadly. The combination adds more drugs, which could increase side effects without improving outcomes.
