What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MIEProcedure or surgery

    Also called esophagectomy

    The patients in this group would perform minimal invasive three-incision subtotal esophagectomy (thoracoscopic and/or laparoscopic)

  • Three-incision thoracotomyProcedure or surgery

    Also called esophagectomy

    The patients in this group would perform three-incision subtotal esophagectomy (thoracotomy and laparotomy)

  • Ivor-Lewis esophagectomyProcedure or surgery

    Also called esophagectomy

    The patients in this group would underwent Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy

  • Sweet esophagectomyProcedure or surgery

    Also called esophagectomy

    The patients in this group would underwent Sweet esophagectomy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MIE, Three-incision thoracotomy and Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy in people with Esophageal Cancer, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Nov 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Tan Lijie, MD (86-021-64041990 ext. 2914, tan.lijie@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Health related quality of life (time frame: postoperative 2 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 11 Nov 2011.
