About this study

Advanced cancer of the stomach and the gastro-esophageal junction (G/GEJ) remains a very serious disease. Today, only about 10-15% of patients are alive after 5 years. Treatments mainly aim to control symptoms, extend life, and maintain quality of life. First treatments usually combine two chemotherapies, but recent years have brought real progress. Immunotherapy - drugs that "unlock" the immune system - has shown clear benefits. For patients whose tumors have certain markers (like PD-L1), combining drugs such as nivolumab or pembrolizumab with chemotherapy can help patients live longer. Another breakthrough is zolbetuximab, a targeted therapy that attacks a protein (Claudin 18.2) found on many gastric cancers, also improving survival. When cancer grows despite these therapies, second-line treatments are used. The most common is chemotherapy with paclitaxel + ramucirumab, which blocks the tumor's blood supply. These drugs extend survival, but usually only by a few months. For patients who need a third option, the oral drug trifluridine/tipiracil (TAS-102) can provide extra time, though benefits remain limited. That's why researchers are now exploring combinations. Since stomach tumors rely on forming new blood vessels, combining trifluridine/tipiracil with anti-angiogenic drugs - medicines that cut off the tumor's blood supply - looks promising. One of the most exciting of these drugs is fruquintinib, already proven effective in colorectal cancer. A new international tria…
