Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults 18–75 with pathologically confirmed, treatment‑naive cT3‑4aN+M0 gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma that is MHC‑II negative, with ECOG performance status 0–1 and planned for surgery, are ideal candidates.

Probably not a fit

Patients who are pregnant or lactating, have prior anti-cancer therapy for the current disease, have metastatic disease, poor performance status, or do not meet the MHC‑II‑negative biomarker criteria are unlikely to benefit from this protocol.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This Phase 2, single-center study gives patients IBI363 alongside standard perioperative chemotherapy regimens (XELOX or SOX) before and after planned surgery for cT3-4aN+M0 gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Eligible tumors must be MHC‑II negative by specified immunohistochemistry criteria and patients must be treatment‑naive with ECOG 0–1. The study will monitor safety, surgical outcomes, and measures of anti-tumor activity following neoadjuvant therapy and after surgery. All treatment and follow-up are conducted at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital in Hangzhou, China.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, adding IBI363 could increase tumor shrinkage before surgery and improve long-term outcomes for this specific MHC‑II‑negative patient group.

How similar studies have gone: Combining immune‑oncology agents with perioperative chemotherapy has shown promise in gastric and GEJ cancers in other trials, but using IBI363 specifically and targeting MHC‑II‑negative tumors is a novel, not yet proven approach.
