New Three-Pronged attack on tough stomach cancers

NCT ID NCT04522336

Summary

This small, early-stage study is testing whether combining an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) with chemotherapy and radiation can help control a type of stomach cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this three-part approach is safe and can shrink or eliminate the cancer. Participants will receive the combination treatment and then continue with the immunotherapy drug alone for up to two years if they respond well.
