Trial summary

The current commonly used for distal gastri cancer in gastrointestinal anastomosis is Roux-en-Y. However, the complications after Roux-en-Y reach an incidence of over 30% which involve nausea, vomiting, and abdominal distension. The underlying mechanism might be the result of interruption of intestine peristalsis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Uncut Roux-en-Y Gastrojejunostomy on Quality of Life After Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy for Early Gastric Cancer Patients

The current commonly used for distal gastri cancer in gastrointestinal anastomosis is Roux-en-Y. However, the complications after Roux-en-Y reach an incidence of over 30% which involve nausea, vomiting, and abdominal distension. The underlying mechanism might be the result of interruption of intestine peristalsis. In 2013, Kim reported total laparoscopic uncut Roux-en-Y anastomosis could reduce Roux stasis syndrome incidence by keeping the continuity of jejunum. In September 2014, we carried out this operation in 30 cases in our centre. Our previous results showed that this operation had a low postoperative complication and short hospitalization time, indicating uncut Roux-en-Y anastomosis might be a safe procedure. However, some limitations are noticed. The report from South Korea is a retrospective study and the evaluation of QOL is certain subjective. Here, we aimed to perform the first randomized controlled clinical study on uncut Roux-en-Y anastomosis to improve QOL of patients after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Conventional Roux-en-Y Gastrojejunostomy and Uncut Roux-en-Y Gastrojejunostomy in people with Gastric Cancer, run by The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical 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 7 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 11 Aug 2016. 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 Hao Xu, Doctor (0086 13851530117, hxu@njmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Quality of life (time frame: one year). 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 NCT02644148, 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 11 Aug 2016.
