A Phase I/Ib Dose Escalation Trial of Futibatinib in Combination With Paclitaxel/Ramucirumab in Second Line Confirmed Locally Advanced/Unresectable Gastric, Gastroesophageal Junction, or Esophageal Adenocarcinoma

What is this study?

This study is testing a new combination of three different cancer medications to see if they are safe and effective for treating certain types of stomach or esophageal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Researchers hope that by using these drugs together, they can better block the signals and blood supply that cancer cells need to grow and spread.

Who can participate?

This study is for adults with stomach, esophageal, or gastroesophageal junction cancer that is advanced or cannot be removed by surgery. Participants must meet specific criteria, such as having certain genetic markers and having received only one prior treatment for their cancer.

What will happen?

If you join, you will receive a combination of the study medications and will be closely monitored by the medical team. You will also have regular check-ups, which include blood tests and imaging scans like CT or MRI scans to keep track of how your body and your cancer are responding.

Where and when?

The study is taking place in Chicago, Illinois, and Columbus, Ohio. It is currently in the planning stages and is not yet open for new participants.

Key Points
  • 1This trial combines three different therapies to attack cancer in multiple ways.
  • 2The main goal is to find the right dosage and ensure the combination is safe for patients.
  • 3Participation requires specific prior cancer history and confirmed genetic markers.
