Posterior-line Treatment With Disitamab Vedotin Plus PD-1 in Advanced HER2-low Expressing Gastric Cancer

This is a single-arm, prospective, non-randomized, multi-center/single-center, open-label, phase I clinical study aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of Disitamab Vedotin in combination with PD-1 as posterior line treatment for patients with advanced HER2-low expressing gastric cancer.
