Must have had CT of the chest/abdomen/pelvis with IV contrast (or PET/CT if unable to receive iodinated contrast). * Medically eligible to receive SOC chemotherapy. * At least 18 years of age. * ECOG performance status ≤ 2. * Adequate bone marrow and organ function as defined below: * Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 K/cumm * Platelets ≥ 100 K/cumm * Creatinine clearance \> 50 mL/min by Cockroft Gault calculation * The effects of the various chemotherapy agents used in this study on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason, women of childbearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control, abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation.

Exclusion Criteria: * Prior surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy for gastric or esophageal cancer. * Prior surgery to the esophagus or stomach. * Siewert I-II GE junction tumor. * Prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen. Patients with prior or concurrent malignancy that does NOT meet that definition are eligible for this trial. * Currently receiving any other investigational agents. * A history of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to the SOC chemotherapy used in the study. * Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to: ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, or cardiac arrhythmia that are considered clinically significant as determined by the treating physician. * Pregnant and/or breastfeeding.
