Patients Who Underwent Gastrectomy With Lymph Node Dissection for Gastric CancerNCT01919242
Postoperative Morbidity and Mortality After Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer: Prospective Cohort Study
An observational study of Patients Who Underwent Gastrectomy With Lymph Node Dissection for Gastric Cancer, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.
Trial summary
Gastric cancer is still one of the main health care issue and gastrectomy with lymph node dissection is the only chance to be cure. Even though the development and standardization of gastric cancer surgery, the morbidity of gastric cancer surgery was reported around 20% with less than 1% of mortality in East.

About this study
Gastric cancer is still one of the main health care issue and gastrectomy with lymph node dissection is the only chance to be cure. Even though the development and standardization of gastric cancer surgery, the morbidity of gastric cancer surgery was reported around 20% with less than 1% of mortality in East. In contrast, around 40% of morbidity and 10% of mortality was reported in West. There has been several indexes which can define the complications after surgery, but adapting it into clinical practice is sometimes difficult due to the heterogeneous opinion between surgeons. Thus for clear defining the complications after surgery, consensus between many surgeons and prospective cohort study is necessary. The purpose of this study is collecting the complications data after gastric cancer surgery and defining it with every week meeting by at least 6 or more surgeons' discussion.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
gastrectomyProcedure or surgery
gastrectomy with D1 + lymph node dissection for clinically early gastric cancer, and gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection for clinically advanced gastric cancer
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| with morbidity | patients who suffered from any type of morbidity after surgery Receives: Procedure: gastrectomy | |
| without morbidity | patients who did not suffer from any type of morbidity after surgery Receives: Procedure: gastrectomy |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
the type of complications and the incidence of it
the types of complication is classified into as follows: wound complications, intra-abdominal fluid collection or abscess, intra-luminal bleeding, intra-abdominal bleeding, intestinal obstruction, ileus, stricture of anastomosis, anastomosis leak, pancreatitis, pulmonary complications, urinary tract infection, renal dysfunction, hepatic dysfunction, cardiac dysfunction, endocrine dysfunction, miscellaneous complications. Each complication will be graded according to Clavian-Dindo classification. Re-admission or visiting emergency room will be checked and recorded.
Measured: within 30 days after operation, any case of re-admission

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Patients Who Underwent Gastrectomy With Lymph Node Dissection for Gastric Cancer, run by Yonsei University 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 2 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 Jan 2019. 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.
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 Woo Jin Hyung, MD (82-2-2228-2100, wjhyung@yuhs.ac), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
the type of complications and the incidence of it (time frame: within 30 days after operation, any case of re-admission). 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 NCT01919242, which also lists 11 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 11 Jan 2019.
