About this trial
The purpose of this study is to characterize the clinical effects of tislelizumab, including pharmacokinetics (PK), activity, and safety assessments in US racial and ethnic minority patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, programmed death-ligand 1(PD-L1)-positive, unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal cancer (GAC/GEA) or esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The study duration will be up to approximately 6 years.
