Summary

This study tests a new combination treatment for people with advanced stomach, esophageal, or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has not responded to standard therapy. Participants receive injections of a cancer-killing virus (OBP-301) directly into their tumor during a scope procedure, plus infusions of the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab every 6 weeks. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective for tumors that are PD-L1-negative or have stopped responding to immunotherapy.
