About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Endoscopic Submucosal Tunnel Dissection for Superficial Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: a Prospective Multicenter Study

To evaluate the efficacy and safety profile of endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection for superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Read the detailed description

This multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the tunnel technique in ESD of superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Specifically the tunnel technique would be compared to conventional method on the procedure time and the muscular layer injury rate in patients scheduled for ESD with indication of ESCC.

Being tested
ESTD, ESD
Keywords
Endoscopic submucosal dissection, Endoscopic submucosal tunnelling dissection, procedure time

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ESTDProcedure or surgery

    During the ESTD procedure,after marking and submucosal injection, incisions were made at both the anal and oral sides of the lesion, and the submucosa under the lesion was then dissected to create a tunnel between the distal and proximal incisions. When the endscope reached the lower incision, the distal end of the esophageal lumen could be visualized , then two lateral mucosal incisions were made, thus completing the ESD procedure.

  • ESDProcedure or surgery

    The ESD procedure involved marking,injection,circumferential cutting, submucosal dissection.

What is being measured

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

  1. The procedure time

    Procedure time was defined as the time from marking of the lesion until complete removal of the specimen,including hemostasis.

    Measured: day 1

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The rate of bleeding during operation

    The hemorrhage observed during the operation

    Measured: day 1

  2. The rate of injury to the muscular layer

    The injury to the muscular layer observed during the operation

    Measured: day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ESTD and ESD in people with Esophageal Superficial Mucosal Lesion, run by Xijing Hospital of Digestive Diseases 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 3 inclusion and 13 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 17 Jul 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 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.

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?

The procedure time (time frame: day 1). 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 NCT03404921, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Jul 2019.
