Stomach neoplasms

Researchers are testing a combination of three drugs in adults with advanced gastric cancer that has grown after one standard chemotherapy regimen and whose tumors carry the PD-L1 protein. The drugs are irinotecan liposome (a chemotherapy wrapped in fat particles), fruquintinib (…

This study compares a new, less invasive surgery that removes only the cancerous upper part of the stomach to the standard full stomach removal. The goal is to see if the new approach helps patients lose less weight one year after surgery. The trial will enroll 120 adults with ea…

This study tests whether a family-supervised program combining exercise, nutrition advice, and psychological support can reduce complications after stomach cancer surgery. About 90 adults who will receive chemotherapy before surgery are randomly assigned to either the program plu…

Many cancer trials require patients to have specific molecular markers, so researchers test large numbers of people to find the few who qualify. This study evaluates FATHOM, an AI system that reads clinical trial records and routine tumor slides to predict which patients carry th…

This study tests whether transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) — a needle-free treatment that sends mild electrical pulses through sticky pads on the skin — can help people recover faster after laparoscopic surgery for stomach cancer. Researchers are comparing thr…

This trial compares a fixed-dose combination of acetaminophen and ibuprofen (Maxigesic) against acetaminophen alone for pain relief after minimally invasive stomach cancer surgery. 160 adults scheduled for radical gastrectomy will receive either the combo or standard acetaminophe…

This study tests a new one-click autofocus system for magnifying endoscopy, which uses computer vision to automatically focus the camera during stomach exams. Researchers will compare it to the standard manual focus method in 93 patients with stomach diseases. The goal is to see …
