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.
