JS107 plus toripalimab and chemotherapy as first-line treatment for CLDN18.2-positive gastric cancer
Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled, Open-label Phase III Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of JS107 in Combination With Toripalimab and Chemotherapy Versus Sintilimab in Combination With Chemotherapy as First-line Treatment for CLDN18.2-positive Advanced Gastric or Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma
Run by NingBo Junyan Hongshi Biosciences Co., Ltd · NCT07584135 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This trial tests whether JS107 added to toripalimab and XELOX is better than a similar regimen with sintilimab for patients with untreated, CLDN18.2-positive, HER2-negative advanced gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (18+) with unresectable locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic CLDN18.2-positive, HER2-negative gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma who have not received prior systemic therapy for this disease and meet all inclusion criteria.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without CLDN18.2 expression, with HER2-positive tumors, or those not meeting eligibility criteria may not benefit from this regimen.

What this trial studies
This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label Phase 3 study comparing two first-line regimens for adults with unresectable locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic CLDN18.2-positive, HER2-negative gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma who have not received prior systemic therapy. Participants are assigned to JS107 plus toripalimab with oxaliplatin and capecitabine, or to sintilimab with oxaliplatin and capecitabine, as their XELOX backbone. The trial collects blinded progression-free survival and overall survival as dual primary endpoints, along with safety data. Eligible patients must have measurable disease, good performance status, and CLDN18.2 positivity confirmed centrally.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could offer a more effective first-line option for CLDN18.2-positive gastric/GEJ cancer patients.
How similar studies have gone: Previous studies of similar PD-1/PD-L1–based combinations in gastric cancer show potential benefit, but this specific CLDN18.2-directed approach is relatively novel.
