Patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC), particularly those with serosal invasion, remain at high risk of peritoneal recurrence despite standard perioperative treatment. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) may eradicate free intraperitoneal tumor cells and microscopic peritoneal disease while potentially enhancing systemic anti-tumor immune activation.
This is a prospective, single-center, single-arm exploratory study evaluating a HIPEC priming strategy followed by serplulimab-based neoadjuvant therapy in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (cT3-4aN+M0). Eligible patients will undergo diagnostic laparoscopy confirming no visible peritoneal metastasis (P0) and negative peritoneal cytology (CY0), followed by docetaxel-based HIPEC.
After recovery from HIPEC, patients will initially receive one cycle of serplulimab combined with fluoropyrimidine monotherapy (S-1 or capecitabine), followed by subsequent cycles of serplulimab combined with SOX/XELOX chemotherapy prior to radical gastrectomy.
The primary endpoints are pathological complete response (pCR) rate and major pathological response (MPR) rate. Secondary endpoints include R0 resection rate, objective response rate (ORR), peritoneal recurrence-free survival (PRFS), overall survival (OS), and safety.
Locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) remains associated with a high risk of recurrence after curative-intent treatment, particularly peritoneal recurrence in patients with serosal invasion. Although perioperative chemotherapy improves survival outcomes, current systemic treatment strategies remain insufficient for controlling microscopic peritoneal dissemination.
Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) delivers heated chemotherapeutic agents directly into the peritoneal cavity, resulting in enhanced regional drug exposure and hyperthermia-mediated cytotoxicity. In addition to direct anti-tumor effects, accumulating evidence suggests that HIPEC may induce immunogenic cell death, enhance tumor antigen release, and activate systemic anti-tumor immune responses.
Serplulimab is a humanized anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody that restores T-cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity through blockade of the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway. The sequential administration of HIPEC followed by PD-1 blockade-based neoadjuvant therapy may therefore provide synergistic anti-tumor activity in locally advanced gastric cancer.
This prospective, single-center, single-arm exploratory study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HIPEC followed by serplulimab-based neoadjuvant therapy in patients with HER2-negative locally advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
Approximately 48 patients with clinically staged cT3-4aN+M0 disease will be enrolled. After screening and informed consent, all eligible patients will undergo diagnostic laparoscopy with peritoneal lavage cytology. Patients confirmed to have no visible peritoneal metastasis (P0) and negative cytology (CY0) will receive docetaxel-based HIPEC.
Following postoperative recovery, patients will receive one induction cycle of serplulimab combined with fluoropyrimidine monotherapy (S-1 or capecitabine). Subsequent neoadjuvant treatment will consist of serplulimab combined with SOX or XELOX administered every 3 weeks for a total of 3-4 treatment cycles. Patients considered resectable after radiologic reassessment will undergo standard radical gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy.
The primary endpoints are pathological complete response (pCR) and major pathological response (MPR). Secondary endpoints include R0 resection rate, objective response rate (ORR), peritoneal recurrence-free survival (PRFS), overall survival (OS), and treatment-related safety assessed according to NCI-CTCAE criteria.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).
Your pathology report is the document that shows this.
A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.
Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.
Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.
HER2 is a protein, made from the ERBB2 gene, that drives the growth of some cancers. A study may look for a level of the protein, extra copies of the gene, or a particular change in it.
In breast cancer, protein tests are read as HER2-positive, HER2-low or HER2-negative; other cancers use their own rules. Check which test result the study requires.
A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.
Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.
“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.
The number of neutrophils, white blood cells that help fight infection, in a given amount of blood. Too few raises the risk of infection.
It is a count, not a percentage of the white cells. Limits are written in units that mean the same: ≥ 1.5 × 10⁹/L is ≥ 1,500 per mm³ (µL). Each lab has its own reference range.
Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.
The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).
A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.
Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.
Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.
Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.
How quickly the kidneys clear creatinine, a waste product, from the blood. A study may estimate it from a blood test with age, weight and sex (often by the Cockcroft–Gault formula), or measure it using blood and urine collected over a set time. Given in mL/min; higher is better.
Blood tests of how long blood takes to clot. The INR is the prothrombin time (PT) put on a common scale; about 1 is usual for someone not taking a blood thinner.
Criteria often make an exception for people on a blood thinner such as warfarin, whose INR is raised on purpose.
Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).
Able to have children. For women this usually means from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery; for men, unless permanently sterile. Read who the line is about — participants, women, men, or their partners.
Criteria about it usually ask for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.
Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.
On an ECG, the QT interval is the time the heart’s lower chambers take to activate electrically and recover in each beat. QTc is that time adjusted for heart rate (QTcF by Fridericia’s formula, QTcB by Bazett’s). Some medicines lengthen it, and a long QTc can raise the risk of a dangerous heart rhythm.
The study may name a correction formula and a limit in milliseconds, often around 450–480.
The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.
Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.
The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.
Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.
Vaccines made with a weakened form of the germ, such as measles–mumps–rubella (MMR), chickenpox and yellow fever. They can be risky when the immune system is weakened. Flu injections are not live; the nasal flu spray is.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: long-term lung disease that makes it hard to breathe out, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.
