New treatment option for Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma
Official title Adebrelimab With Chemoradiotherapy and Surgery for G/GEJ
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06985602
What this study is testing
What is Arm 1: Adebrelimab Combined with Chemoradiotherapy Followed by Surgery?
Arm 1: Adebrelimab Combined with Chemoradiotherapy Followed by Surgery is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Gastric cancer is one of the most common and deadly cancers globally, characterized by a poor prognosis. Approximately 70% of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, and the 5-year survival rate is only around 10%.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
