About this study

Official title: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial Examining the Differences of Quality of Life of Patients Undergoing Total Gastrectomy or Proximal Gastrectomy for Adenocarcinoma of Esophagogastric Junction

The purpose of this study is to find out more about differences of the quality of life in patients undergoing total gastrectomy or proximal gastrectomy for adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction. To find a better reconstruction for patients who received total gastrectomy.

Read the detailed description

Overall, the incidence of stomach cancer worldwide is declining with geographical variation. However, an increase in the incidence rate of adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction, called cardia or AEG has been observed in recent years. AEG may represent a specific histopathological and biologic entity. In the treatment AEG there is argument over whether proximal gastractomy(PG) or total gastractomy (TG) should be done. The quality of life (QOL) of the patients following TG or PG arouses people's attention. The purpose of this study was to evaluate differences of the quality of life in patients undergoing total gastrectomy or proximal gastrectomy for adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Total Gastrectomy or Proximal Gastrectomy in people with Adenocarcinoma of Esophagogastric Junction., 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 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Oct 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 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Wang Ya Nong, MD, PhD (+86-21 64175590 ext. 1208, huahuang@fudan.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in QOL (Quality of Life) (time frame: 5years). 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 2 Oct 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
