About this study

Official title: Prospective Multicenter Trial for Anti-adhesion Effect of GUARDIX-SGⓇ Following Radical Gastrectomy in Patients With Gastric Cancer.

This study is to evaluate the efficacy of GUARDIX-SGⓇ for patients with gastrectomy in Korea and the investigators hypothesized applying of adhesive preventing agent would reduce incidence of adhesive obstruction after gastrectomy.

Read the detailed description

Adhesive bowel obstruction is relatively often complication in patients after abdominal surgery

Gastric cancer is the most frequent cancer in Korea.

The incidence of adhesive bowel obstruction would be increased in patients with gastric cancer, especially associated radical lymphadenectomy.

The causes of postoperative adhesive obstruction include adhesion of the wound, adhesion of small intestine to small intestine, adhesion of the small intestine to other abdominal organs, and internal hernia.

Several studies reported efficacy of adhesive preventing agent after colorectal resection.

Gastrectomy is associated with a high risk (incidence, 11.7%-38.5%) of bowel obstruction.

To date, however, no randomized study has shown that GUARDIX-SGⓇ reduces the rate of small bowel obstruction after gastrectomy with radical lymphadenectomy for gastric cancer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing GUARDIX-SG in people with Adhesive Intestinal Obstruction, run by The Catholic University of Korea 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 5 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 16 Aug 2017. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

incidence of adhesive intestinal obstruction (time frame: up to 1 years after operation (every 3 month)). 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 16 Aug 2017.
