About this study

Official title: A Single Center Randomized Prospective Study on the Criteria for Lymph Node Sorting for Pathological Examination After Curative Surgery for Gastric Cancer

The aim of this study is intending to provide the optimal procedures of lymph node sorting for pathological examination after curative surgery for gastric cancer, which can discriminate the differences of the status of lymph node metastasis, pTNM classification and prognostic outcome of gastric cancer patients.

Being tested
lymph node sorting for pathological examination
Medical subject headings
Lymphatic Metastasis, Stomach Neoplasms, Coma

What participants receive

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

  • lymph node sorting for pathological examinationProcedure or surgery

    In this study, intervention methods include two kinds of lymph node sorting for pathological examination in gastric cancer samples after curative surgery. One is the fine sorting lymph nodes, representing the lymph nodes should be sorted one by one from the tissues around the stomach, celiac axis, and the main brunches of celiac axis. The other is the group sorting lymph nodes, representing the lymph nodes should be simply sorted in the soft tissues around the stomach, celiac axis, and the main brunches of celiac axis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Migration of pN stage in gastric cancer patients

    According to the overall survival of all included patients, we will evaluate the optimal lymph node sorting method to obtain the accurately pathological stage of lymph node metastatic counts (pN stage) for prediction the prognosis of patients after curative surgery for gastric cancer.

    Measured: 60 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing lymph node sorting for pathological examination in people with Lymph Node Metastases and Gastric Cancer, run by Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital 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 13 inclusion and 10 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 13 Nov 2020. 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?

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?

Migration of pN stage in gastric cancer patients (time frame: 60 months). 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 13 Nov 2020.
