Stomach cancer breakthrough: study seeks best Post-Surgery care for complete responders
NCT ID NCT07161453
First seen Jun 26, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 500 stomach cancer patients who had chemotherapy plus immunotherapy before surgery and achieved a complete response (no cancer left in the removed tissue). It compares different post-surgery treatments, including chemotherapy alone or with immunotherapy, to see which is better at preventing cancer from coming back. The goal is to find the safest and most effective follow-up plan for these patients.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Chemotherapy (SOX or XELOX) with or without a PD-1 inhibitor (immunotherapy)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help identify the best post-surgery treatment to prevent cancer recurrence in patients who already had a strong response to pre-surgery therapy.
- What could go wrong
- This is a real-world study, not a tightly controlled trial, so results may be less definitive. The treatments have side effects like fatigue, nausea, and immune-related reactions.
