Brief Summary

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of anlotinib combined with TQB2450 and the SOX regimen as first-line treatment for advanced gastric cancer with low PD-L1 expression

Detailed Description

Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of anlotinib in combination with TQB2450 and the SOX regimen as first-line treatment for advanced gastric cancer with low PD-L1 expression. Additionally, real-world data were collected from hospital-based patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-combined chemotherapy as first-line therapy for PD-L1-low advanced gastric cancer to establish an external control cohort. The efficacy outcomes between the two treatment strategies were then compared.
