Safety and Efficacy Study of Sorbitol With Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Combined With Tirellizumab (PD-1 Inhibitor) in Patients With Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer

Safety and Efficacy Study of Oral Sorbitol to Enhance the Therapeutic Effect of Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Combined With Tirellizumab (PD-1 Inhibitor) in Patients With Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 18 Aug 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if sorbitol works to enhance the therapeutic effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with Tirellizumab (PD-1 inhibitor) in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. It will also learn about the safety of sorbitol. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does sorbitol enhance the therapeutic effect of immunotherapy and increase the major response rate in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer? Does sorbitol with neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with Tirellizumab (PD-1 inhibitor) can improve the prognosis of patients with locally advanced gastric cancer? Researchers will compare sorbitol to a standard-of-care treatment (aPD-1 + SOX chemotherapy) to see if sorbitol works to enhance the therapeutic effect (Add-on Effect) of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with Tirellizumab (PD-1 inhibitor) in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. Participants will: Take sorbitol every day for 3 months in 3 treatment cycles Visit the clinic once every 4 weeks for checkups and tests Keep a diary of their symptoms and the number of times they use a rescue inhaler Participants will follow up as planned until PD occurs, informed consent is withdrawn, or follow-up is lost (whichever occurs first). After the end of treatment and safety follow-up, all subjects will be followed up for survival (OS data collected every 3 months ±14 days).

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Active or previously recorded autoimmune or inflammatory diseases (including inflammatory bowel disease \[such as colitis or Crohn's disease\], diverticulitis \[excluding diverticular disease\], systemic lupus erythematosus, sarcoidosis syndrome, or Wegener's syndrome \[granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Graves' disease, rheumatoid arthritis, hypophysitis, uveitis, etc.\]), except for patients with vitiligo or alopecia, provided that they have celiac disease that can be controlled through diet after consultation with the study doctor.
  • Patients preparing for or having previously undergone organ or bone marrow transplantation.
  • Uncontrolled concurrent diseases, including but not limited to: persistent or active infections (tuberculosis, HBV/HCV, pneumonia, etc.), symptomatic congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina pectoris, uncontrolled arrhythmia, active ILD, severe chronic gastrointestinal diseases with diarrhea, or conditions that may limit compliance with study requirements, significantly increase the risk of adverse events (AEs), or affect the ability of the subject to provide written informed consent.
  • Patients currently using immunosuppressants, systemic or absorbable local hormones for immunosuppressive purposes (dose \> 10mg/day prednisone or other equivalent efficacy hormones), and still using them within 2 weeks before enrollment.
  • Patients who have previously received platinum-based, fluorouracil-based chemotherapy or targeted therapy, patients whose target lesions have undergone radiotherapy during combination therapy, or patients who have previously received other PD-1 antibody treatment or other PD-1/PD-L1 immune therapy.
  • Have multiple factors that affect oral medication (such as inability to swallow, chronic diarrhea and intestinal obstruction, etc.);
  • Have experienced arterial or venous thrombotic events within the last year, such as cerebrovascular accidents (including transient ischemic attacks), deep vein thrombosis (except for venous thrombosis caused by previous chemotherapy catheterization and judged by the investigator to have healed), and pulmonary embolism, etc.;
  • Have serious concomitant diseases that, in the judgment of the investigator, pose a significant risk to the patient's safety or affect the patient's ability to complete the study;

Other illness

  • Other active malignant tumors within 5 years or concurrently. Patients with cured localized tumors, such as skin basal cell carcinoma, skin squamous cell carcinoma, superficial bladder cancer, prostate carcinoma in situ, cervical carcinoma in situ, breast carcinoma in situ, etc., can be included.
  • Have experienced significant clinically significant bleeding symptoms or have a clear bleeding tendency within the last three months, such as a history of black stool or hematemesis, or are at high risk of bleeding due to conditions such as intestinal perforation, gastric perforation, or extensive ulcers, or have active gastric ulcers and a positive fecal occult blood test (++) ;
  • Have a history of abuse of psychotropic drugs and are unable to quit or have mental disorders;

Lab values

  • Have hypertension that cannot be well controlled with a single antihypertensive drug (systolic blood pressure \> 140 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure \> 90 mmHg); have a history of unstable angina pectoris; have been newly diagnosed with angina pectoris within the last three months or have had a myocardial infarction within the last six months; have arrhythmia (including QTcF: male ≥ 450 ms, female ≥ 470 ms) and need long-term use of antiarrhythmic drugs or have New York Heart Association functional class ≥ II heart failure; Doppler ultrasound assessment: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \< 50%;
