New cocktail aims to tackle stomach cancer relapse

NCT ID NCT07669740

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

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests a combination of three drugs—sintilimab, ramucirumab, and paclitaxel—in 30 adults with HER2-negative stomach cancer that came back during or within 6 months of finishing adjuvant therapy. The main goal is to see how many patients' tumors shrink significantly. Researchers will also look for biomarkers to personalize future treatment.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

sintilimab, ramucirumab, and paclitaxel

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a new treatment option for gastric cancer that comes back quickly after standard therapy, potentially shrinking tumors and delaying progression.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug combination can cause serious side effects, and there is no guarantee it will work better than existing treatments.
