Trial summary

Near-focus with narrow-band imaging is a novel technique to improve the quality of images of the irregular mucosal structures and microvessels of gastric neoplasms. The investigators compare this technique with indio carmin spray, commonly used tool to determine tumor margin. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Usefulness of Near-focus With Narrow-band Imaging for Determining Gastric Tumor Margin

Near-focus with narrow-band imaging is a novel technique to improve the quality of images of the irregular mucosal structures and microvessels of gastric neoplasms. The investigators compare this technique with indio carmin spray, commonly used tool to determine tumor margin. The subject are patients who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection for gastric neoplasms. Participants are randomized into near-focus with narrow-band imaging and indigo carmin groups. First, marking is performed at the tumor margins determined by each modality. The distance from the marking dots to the tumor margin is measured histopathologically in the resected specimens. Finally, the investigators will compare the accuracy between two groups based on the distance from marking dots to tumor margin measured by histopathologic examination.

Receives: Device: Near focus with narrow band imaging
Indigo carminNo interventionAfter indigo carmine was sprayed over the lesion, marking is performed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Accuracy (accurate if the distance (between margin dots and tumor margin measured by histopathology) was less than 1 mm)

    Marking was diagnosed as accurate if the distance (between margin dots and tumor margin measured by histopathology) was less than 1 mm

    Measured: 1 week after procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Near focus with narrow band imaging in people with Gastric Tumors, run by Kyunghee University Medical Center at 7 sites 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 4 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites 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?

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?

Accuracy (accurate if the distance (between margin dots and tumor margin measured by histopathology) was less than 1 mm) (time frame: 1 week after procedure). 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 NCT02661945, which also lists 3 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 4 Jun 2019.
