About this study

Official title: Effect of Helicobacter Pylori Eradication on the New Tumor Development After Endoscopic Resection of Gastric Tumors

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Helicobacter pylori eradication could reduce the new tumor development after endoscopic resection of gastric tumor.

Read the detailed description

The association between Helicobacter pylori infection and development of gastric cancer has been established by epidemiologic studies. Conversely, eradication of H. pylori showed no significant reduction of the incidence of gastric cancer in a large-scale, double-blind, randomized controlled trial. Eradication of H. pylori to prevent cancer was only effective in the subgroup without precancerous lesions (i,e, dysplasia, intestinal metaplasia, and atrophy). In contrast, randomized prospective study in Japan showed that H. pylori eradication after endoscopic resection of early gastric cancer significantly reduced metachronous gastric cancer. To solve this conflicting issue is critical because gastric cancer is the second leading cancer incidence worldwide, particularly Korea, Japan, and China have highest cancer incidence, and its incidence might decrease by H. pylori eradication treatment.

With respect to therapeutic modality, endoscopic resection for early gastric cancer is currently the established treatment of choice in Korea and Japan because it has been proven to be both minimally invasive and effective in the curative treatment of early gastric cancer.

Endoscopic resection has also been performed in the gastric dysplasia because dysplasia has to some extent malignant potential although firm evidence is lacking. In comparison with surgical resection, endoscopic resection conserves remnant stomach. Accordingly, patients treated with endoscopic resection have higher possibility for metachronous gastric cancer than those treated with surgical resection.

So far, it has not yet been clearly established whether H pylori eradication for gastric tumors (early gastric cancer and gastric dysplasia) could reduce metachronous cancer. We performed randomized controlled, open-label trial on the effect of new cancer development after H pylori eradication for gastric tumors.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Effect of eradication of Helicobacter pylori on incidence of metachronous gastric carcinoma after endoscopic resection of gastric tumor.

    Primary outcome is the incidence of new cancer development after endoscopic resection of gastric tumors between eradication and control groups. Previous reports showed the incidence of new cancer between two groups differs at least 3years.

    Measured: we set the time frame as at least three years.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. effect of eradication of Helicobacter pylori on incidence of High grade dysplasia development after endoscopic resection of gastric tumor.

    Gastric high grade dysplasia has high malignant potential. Considering this, we set high grade dysplasia as secondary outcome measurement.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing eradication treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection in people with Gastric Tumor and Helicobacter Pylori, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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 14 Mar 2012. 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 South Korea. 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?

Effect of eradication of Helicobacter pylori on incidence of metachronous gastric carcinoma after endoscopic resection of gastric tumor. (time frame: we set the time frame as at least three years.). 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 NCT01510730, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 14 Mar 2012.
