Summary: Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most commonly diagnosed cancer, with over one million cases diagnosed annually worldwide. Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression in GC (seen in 4.4% to 53.4% of patients in different reports) is predictive biomarker of response to HER2-targeting therapies. Trastuzumab in combination with cisplatin or oxaliplatin, and a fluoropyrimidine (capecitabine or 5-fluorouracil [5-FU]), is approved anti-HER2 therapy for first-line treatment of HER2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer. Rilvegostomig 750 mg Q3W was selected as recommended Phase 2 dose based on all available ARTEMIDE-01 clinical safety, efficacy, PK, RO data as well as modeling analysis. The dose of 750 mg Q3W is predicted to achieve intra-tumoral RO of ≥ 90% in the majority of participants across a broad spectrum of conditions. This is a phase II study to initially assess the efficacy of perioperative Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd) and Capecitabine combination with or without Rilvegostomig in patients with HER2 positive locally advanced unresectable GC and potentially by subsequent protocol amendment in HER2 low locally advanced GC. Other agents may also subsequently be assessed in this protocol, by protocol amendments

Detailed description: Neoadjuvant therapy will begin following completion of the screening period, and patients will undergo resection surgery 4 to 8 weeks after the last dose of neoadjuvant therapy. Surgery >8 weeks after the last dose of neoadjuvant therapy may be permitted in consultation with the Sponsor. Adjuvant therapy will begin 4 to 12weeks post-surgery (based on the patient's recovery period). Tumor evaluation using modified RECIST 1.1 will be conducted at screening (within 28 days prior to first dose) and ≤28 days after last dose of neoadjuvant therapy and after surgery. Every 12 weeks (±1 week) relative to the Adjuvant Baseline scan for first years and then every 24 weeks (±2 week) until progression/recurrence The imaging modalities used for modified RECIST 1.1 assessment will be CT or MRI scans of chest, abdomen and pelvis. Modified RECIST 1.1 scans will be analyzed by the investigator on site.

Female patients must be using a highly effective method of contraception (refer to the restrictions on P45) during the clinical trial and for 7 months after permanent discontinuation of the study drug. There must be evidence that patients are not breastfeeding, have a negative pregnancy test, or not of childbearing potential by meeting one of the following criteria at screening: 1. Post-menopausal women defined as aged more than 50 years and amenorrhoeic for at least 12 months following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatment. 2. Documentation of irreversible surgical sterilization by hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or bilateral salpingectomy, but not tubal ligation. 3. Amenorrhoeic for 12 months and serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and plasma oestradiol levels in the postmenopausal range for the institution.

Non-sterilized male patients who are sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential must use a condom with spermicide from screening to 4 months after the final dose of IMP. Complete heterosexual abstinence for the duration of the study and drug washout period is an acceptable contraceptive method if it is in line with the patient's usual lifestyle (consideration must be made to the duration of the clinical trial); however, periodic or occasional abstinence, the rhythm method, and the withdrawal method are not acceptable. It is strongly recommended for the female partners of a male patient to also use at least one highly effective method of contraception throughout this period. In addition, male patients should refrain from fathering a child, or freezing or donating sperm from the time of randomization/enrolment, throughout the study and for 4 months after the last dose of IMP.

All of the following criteria are required to define an HIV infection that is well controlled: 1. undetectable viral RNA, 2. CD4+ count ≥350 cells/μL, 3. no history of AIDS-defining opportunistic infection within the past 12 months, and stable for at least 4 weeks on the same anti-HIV medications (meaning there are no expected further changes in that time to the number or type of antiretroviral drugs in the regimen). If an HIV infection meets the above criteria, monitoring of viral RNA load and CD4+ count is recommended. Participants must be tested for HIV if acceptable by local regulations or an institutional IRB/IEC. - 11. Patient with any of the following cardiac criteria: 1.
