Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators have initial evidence that the combination of cetuximab and cisplatin-HDFL may further improve the efficacy of the cisplatin-HDFL combination chemotherapy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The clinical efficacy (confirmed objective response rates, progression-free survival, overall survival), and treatment-related toxicities of this novel regimen will be examined as the first-line treatment in patients with nonresectable or recurrent/metastatic gastric cancer.
