TEAS Timing for Gastrectomy Recovery (TEAS-TIME Trial)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) works to help people recover faster after laparoscopic surgery for stomach cancer. TEAS is a treatment that uses small electrical pulses through sticky pads on the skin. It does not use needles. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does TEAS help people pass gas (a sign that the digestive system is waking up) sooner after surgery? Does TEAS help lower pain after surgery? Does TEAS reduce the need for extra pain medication after surgery? Researchers will compare three groups to see if TEAS works better when given before, during, and after surgery compared with only after surgery. Group 1 receives TEAS before, during, and after surgery. Group 2 receives a sham (inactive) treatment before and during surgery, and real TEAS after surgery. Group 3 receives sham treatment at all time points. All participants will receive the same standard pain relief and recovery care after surgery. Participants will: Be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to one of the three groups Receive TEAS or sham treatment for 30 minutes before surgery, during surgery, and for 30 minutes each day on the first 3 days after surgery Rate their pain on a 0-10 scale at 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours after surgery Complete quality-of-life questionnaires before surgery, on day 4 after surgery, and 30 days after surgery Have a follow-up visit or phone call 30 days after leaving the hospital This study includes 300 adults aged 18 to 80 years who are scheduled to have laparoscopic surgery for stomach cancer at 13 hospitals in Shandong Province, China.

A Prospective Real-World Observational Study of Intratumoral Oncolytic Virus Injection Combined With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors for Metastatic Tumors (Colorectal Cancer, Gastric Cancer, and Hepatocellular Carcinoma)

The goal of this single-arm, open-label, prospective clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and preliminary antitumor activity of intratumoral oncolytic virus (H101, recombinant human type 5 adenovirus) combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), and to explore the dynamic remodeling of the tumor immune microenvironment and potential predictive biomarkers, in patients with advanced metastatic colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, or hepatocellular carcinoma who have failed multiple prior lines of therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the incidence of treatment-related adverse events and serious adverse events, and the completion rate of the combination therapy (safety and feasibility)? What is the objective response rate and local control rate per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) (preliminary antitumor activity)? How does the combination therapy reshape the tumor immune microenvironment in terms of immune cell infiltration, subset proportions, functional status, and signaling pathways, and which differentially expressed genes or immune cell subtypes are associated with clinical response? This is a single-arm study; there is no comparator group. Participants will: Receive intratumoral H101 injection once per cycle (dose stratified by lesion size), followed 5-7 days later by intravenous ICI \[Anti-Programmed Cell Death Protein 1 Antibody (anti-PD-1) with or without Anti-Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte-Associated Protein 4 Antibody (anti-CTLA-4)\], repeated every 2-3 weeks for a total of 4 cycles.

Multimodal Prehabilitation in Gastric Cancer Patients

This single-arm phase II trial investigates whether a multimodal prehabilitation program can attenuate the postoperative inflammatory response in patients undergoing curative gastric cancer surgery. Major abdominal surgery induces a pronounced systemic inflammatory reaction that contributes to postoperative complications, delayed recovery, impaired functional status, and reduced tolerance to adjuvant therapy. Elevated postoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) trajectories have been associated with infectious complications, whereas a timely decline in CRP may reflect a more adequate immune response. Interventions that improve nutritional status, physical fitness, and psychological resilience before surgery may modulate these inflammatory processes. The PING-P intervention combines three components starting two weeks before surgery and continuing for three weeks postoperatively: (1) structured exercise including resistance, aerobic and respiratory training supported by pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy to both thighs twice weekly; (2) individualized nutritional therapy with counseling and provision of omega-3-enriched high-protein oral nutritional supplements twice daily to achieve ≥1.2 g/kg/day protein intake; and (3) psychological support using coaching and digital relaxation tools. The program is delivered in hospital and at home using a mobile application with regular monitoring and feedback. The primary objective is to evaluate whether this multimodal approach reduces the proportion of patients with a poor postoperative immune response, defined as either a CRP peak ≥166 mg/L or a decrease from peak CRP to two days later of \<35%. CRP will be measured from postoperative day (POD) 1 to POD7 or until discharge. Secondary objectives include assessment of feasibility (recruitment, retention, and adherence to ONS intake, PEMF sessions, and exercises), postoperative infectious and overall complications, intervention-related adverse events, functional recovery, nutritional status, body composition, and quality of life. Adults with histologically proven gastric or esophagogastric junction cancer (Siewert II-III) scheduled for minimally-invasive curative gastrectomy at National University Hospital and Ng Teng Fong General Hospital, Singapore, will be enrolled. Exclusion criteria include distant metastases, emergency surgery, need for preoperative tube or parenteral feeding, inability to follow the program, or contraindications to oral nutrition. A total of 25 participants will be recruited. The study will provide first data on whether targeted multimodal prehabilitation can favorably modify perioperative inflammation and inform the design of a future randomized trial.

FAPI PET Imaging - An Exploratory Study

This study is testing a new imaging tracer called \[18F\]FAPI-74 with PET scans. Researchers want to find out how well this tracer shows certain diseases in the body, including several types of cancer and some non-cancer conditions like fibrosis and sarcoidosis. \[18F\]FAPI-74 attaches to a protein found on cells that are active in tumors and areas of scarring or inflammation. This may help doctors see these areas more clearly than with imaging methods used today, especially in diseases where current scans do not work well. People who join this study will get one injection of the tracer into a vein, then have one PET/CT or PET/MR scan. This takes about 2 hours in total. Researchers will compare the results with imaging the participant already had as part of their regular care, such as other PET scans, CT, or MRI. No extra treatment is given, and no other visits are needed. The study will take place at 5 hospitals in Switzerland and plans to include about 770 adults with a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of one of the conditions being studied. The main goal is to see how clearly the tracer shows up on the scan. Researchers will also look at whether this new scan changes how confident doctors feel about a diagnosis, or changes the patient's treatment plan.

A Noninvasive and Screening miRNA Signature for Gastrointestinal Cancer

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers remain a major global health burden, largely due to the lack of effective and accessible early screening strategies. Current diagnostic approaches-including endoscopy, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-are either invasive, resource-intensive, or insufficiently sensitive for detecting early-stage disease, and are therefore not suitable for population-wide screening or for simultaneously identifying multiple GI tumor types. As a result, many patients are diagnosed at advanced stages, when therapeutic options are limited and prognosis is poor. Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) offer a promising alternative, as they are stable in peripheral blood and reflect tumor-related molecular alterations. In this study, the investigators aim to develop and validate a robust, noninvasive miRNA-based signature capable of distinguishing GI cancers from non-malignant controls. By integrating multi-cohort datasets and applying machine learning-based feature selection and predictive modeling, the investigators will construct a screening panel optimized for reproducibility, scalability, and early-stage detection. This noninvasive miRNA signature has the potential to support accessible, cost-effective, and clinically practical population-level screening for GI cancers, ultimately facilitating earlier diagnosis and improving outcomes for participants.

A Phase 1, First-in-human Study of OKN4395 and Pembrolizumab in Patients With Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to investigate the study drug, OKN4395, administered alone and in combination with pembrolizumab. The overall objectives of this study are to determine the safety and tolerability (degree to which side effects of a drug can be tolerated) of OKN4395 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab, OKN4395 and metabolites (broken-down substances) of OKN4395 levels in the blood, and antitumor activity of OKN4395 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab. This study will be split into 2 parts. Part 1a will look at multiple doses of OKN4395 either alone (monotherapy) or with pembrolizumab (combination therapy) administered on day 1 of each 21-day cycle in patients with solid tumors until the participant has disease progression or discontinues for any reason. The dose of OKN4395 will be increased, after each group of 3 or more participants completes their first 3 weeks of treatment and their data is evaluated for safety, with a planned dose range from 10 mg twice a day to 450 mg twice a day through 13 dose levels. Part 1a also includes a parallel substudy (Substudy 1) consisting of at least 12 participants, aiming to test the effect of food and stomach acid on the levels of OKN4395 in the blood as well as its tolerability. Part 1b will evaluate OKN4395 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab administered on day 1 of each 21-day cycle in patients with selected cancer types. Part 1b will comprise 4 cohorts: Cohort 1 in sarcoma (OKN4395 alone), Cohort 2 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), Cohort 3 in colorectal cancer, and Cohort 4 in gastric cancer (GC), with cohorts 2 to 4 in combination with pembrolizumab. The overall study will enrol approximately 146 participants with up to 54 participants to receive OKN4395 alone and 12 participants to receive OKN4395 in combination with pembrolizumab in Part 1a, and 80 participants in Part 1b split: 20 on monotherapy and 60 on combination therapy. The study will be conducted in the US, Australia, UK and in the EU.
