-
MGC030 in adults with advanced solid tumors
This trial tests MGC030 in adults with advanced urothelial, gastric/GEJ, esophageal, colorectal, gastric, pancreatic, or GEJ cancers to see if it is safe and whether it can shrink tumors or stop growth.
-
First-in-human dose study of DA-3501 for CLDN18.2-positive stomach, GEJ cancer, and pancreatic cancer
A first-in-human study tests DA-3501 in adults with CLDN18.2-positive advanced stomach/GEJ cancer or pancreatic cancer to find a safe, effective dose.
-
Collecting blood and leftover tumor tissue to test molecular residual disease (MRD) detection
This project will test whether blood and leftover tumor tissue from adults with certain solid tumors can be used with Natera's MRD blood tests to find tiny amounts of cancer (ctDNA) after treatment.
-
Pulsed low-dose-rate radiation plus chemotherapy versus standard chemoradiation for esophageal cancer
This trial will test whether delivering radiation as pulsed low-dose-rate together with chemotherapy reduces serious esophagitis compared with standard chemoradiation in adults with locally advanced esophageal adenocarcinoma.
-
Evaluating zanidatamab for HER2-expressing tumors
This study is testing a new drug called zanidatamab to see if it can help people with certain types of cancer that have high levels of HER2 and who have already tried other treatments without success.
-
Support program for patients with gastroesophageal cancer
This study tests if a special support program with nutrition help can improve the health of patients with gastroesophageal cancer compared to regular care during their treatment.
-
Combining PD-1 antibody and chemotherapy followed by surgery for limited metastatic gastric cancer
This study tests if combining immunotherapy and chemotherapy with surgery can help people with limited metastatic gastric cancer live longer and feel better compared to just using the treatments without surgery.
-
Reducing dosing frequency of immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced cancers
This study is testing if giving immune checkpoint inhibitors less often can still help people with advanced cancers feel better while making treatment easier and cheaper.
-
Testing MDX2001 for advanced solid tumors
This study is testing a new drug called MDX2001 to see if it can safely help people with advanced solid tumors like breast or colon cancer.
-
Impact of exercise and diet on quality of life for patients with incurable esophageal and stomach cancer
This study is testing if a program that combines exercise and better nutrition can improve the quality of life for patients with incurable esophageal and stomach cancer after their first treatment hasn't worked.
-
Total neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced gastric and gastroesophageal cancer
This study is testing two different chemotherapy plans for people with advanced stomach cancer to see which one helps them better tolerate treatment and successfully have surgery.
-
Understanding the immune environment in gastroesophageal cancer
This study looks at how the immune system reacts in patients with stomach and gastroesophageal junction cancer who are receiving chemotherapy to see if it can help improve their treatment outcomes.
-
Comparing minimally invasive surgeries for stomach cancer
This study is testing whether a less invasive stomach surgery helps people with stomach cancer feel better and maintain their appetite compared to a more extensive surgery.
-
Combining chemotherapy and immunotherapy for esophageal cancer treatment
This study is testing if combining immunotherapy with chemotherapy can help improve survival for patients with esophageal cancer who had surgery but are at high risk of their cancer coming back.
NIH-funded research (4)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.
-
Targeting FGFR Alterations in Gastroesophageal Cancer
A study aiming to improve treatment for stomach and esophagus cancers by targeting FGFR2 alterations, including combinations with antibody therapies.
-
FGFR-targeted treatments for stomach and esophagus cancer
Developing new drug combinations that target FGFR2 changes for people with gastroesophageal (stomach and esophagus) cancer.
-
Combining immunotherapy to improve treatment for metastatic gastroesophageal cancer
This study is exploring a new way to treat advanced stomach and esophagus cancer by using a mix of immune therapies to help your body fight the cancer better, and it's designed for patients looking for improved treatment options.
-
Targeting specific changes in a cancer-related gene in stomach and esophagus cancer
This study is looking at new ways to treat stomach and esophagus cancer for patients with certain changes in their FGFR2 gene, by combining regular chemotherapy with special targeted treatments to help improve their chances of recovery.
