About this study

Official title: Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate Splenectomy in Total Gastrectomy for Proximal Gastric Carcinoma: JCOG0110

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of splenectomy in potentially curative total gastrectomy for proximal gastric carcinoma in terms of survival benefit and post-operative morbidity.

Read the detailed description

European clinical trials of gastrectomy showed that splenectomy is an important risk factor for post-operative morbidity and mortality. Retrospective comparisons suggested that splenectomy is associated with poor long term survival. However, Japanese studies revealed that 20 - 30 % of patients with non-early carcinoma in the proximal stomach have nodal metastasis in the splenic hilum and therefore, pancreas-preserving splenectomy is part of the standard operation in specialized centers where splenectomy is not considered a risk factor for operative mortality. There have been no prospective randomized trials to evaluate the survival benefit of splenectomy in total gastrectomy for proximal gastric cancer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Surgery: Splenectomy and Surgery: Spleen-preservation in people with Gastric Neoplasm, run by Haruhiko Fukuda at 35 sites in Japan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 35 sites in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival (time frame: During the study conduct). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00112099, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Sep 2016.
