New drug combo aims to slow stomach cancer progression

NCT ID NCT07432295

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding the experimental drug givastomig to standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy can help people with advanced stomach or esophageal cancer live longer without their cancer growing. About 180 adults whose tumors have certain proteins (CLDN18.2 and PD-L1) will receive either the new combo or standard treatment alone. Researchers will track side effects and how long the cancer stays under control.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

givastomig (a targeted antibody) combined with nivolumab (immunotherapy) and chemotherapy

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a more effective first-line treatment for people with advanced stomach or esophageal cancer that expresses certain proteins.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 180 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Adding a new drug also raises unknown side effect risks.
