First seen Apr 23, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 11 times
Summary
This early-phase trial tests a new treatment for stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. Ten adults will receive specially engineered natural killer (NK) cells directly into their belly, along with chemotherapy, to see if it is safe and what dose works best. The goal is to find a way to control this hard-to-treat cancer.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Engineered natural killer (NK) cells (TROP2 CAR/IL-15 TGFBR2 KO NK cells) given as an infusion into the abdomen, along with chemotherapy drugs (fludarabine, cyclophosphamide) and rimiducid.
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen, a condition with very few effective therapies.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small trial with only 10 participants, focused on safety and dosing. The treatment may not shrink tumors or improve survival, and there are risks from the cell infusion and chemotherapy, such as infection or organ damage.
Conditions
