New hope for stomach cancer: drug cocktail shows promise in early trial
NCT ID NCT07529613
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a mix of three drugs—trastuzumab deruxtecan (a targeted therapy), nivolumab (an immunotherapy), and chemotherapy—in 30 people with untreated HER2-low stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. The goal was to first find a safe dose and then see how well it shrinks tumors. While not a cure, the approach aims to control the disease and improve outcomes for a type of cancer that has few treatment options.
