Study of TDXd, Chemotherapy, Pembrolizumab, and Trastuzumab for Gastric or GEJ Cancer

This study is testing different combinations of medicines for advanced HER2-positive gastric (stomach) or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer. Researchers are comparing trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) plus a chemotherapy drug (fluoropyrimidine) and pembrolizumab against standard chemotherapy plus trastuzumab and pembrolizumab. The goal is to see how well these combinations work and if they are safe as a first treatment. To join, you must be at least 18 years old and have HER2-positive cancer. The main way they will measure success is by how long people live without their cancer getting worse (Progression Free Survival or PFS). The study plans to enroll 726 participants.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

For the Main Cohort: PD-L1 CPS ≥1
For the Exploratory Cohort: PD-L1 CPS \<1 6. All participants must provide a tumor sample for tissue-based IHC staining to centrally determine HER2 expression, PD-L1 CPS, and other correlatives. The mandatory FFPE or new biopsy tumor sample can be from either the primary tumor or metastatic biopsy. Specimens with limited tumor content (as centrally determined) and cytology samples are inadequate for defining tumor HER2 and PD-L1 status. 7. At least 1 target measurable lesion on CT or MRI, assessed by the investigator based on RECIST v1.1. Lesions situated in a previously irradiated area are considered measurable if progression has been shown in such lesions. 8. LVEF ≥50% within 28 days before randomization.
  • Progression Free Survival (PFS)From date of randomization to the date of radiographic disease progression or death due to any cause, up to 59 months

    PFS is defined as the time interval from the date of randomization to the date of radiographic disease progression as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) based on RECIST v1.1 or death due to any cause.
