Trial summary

D2 gastrectomy is standard treatment of early gastric cancer in Japan but in other countries there is still some discord, especially in Europe and North America. Although the quantity of metastasis cancer in lymph node defines survival regardless of which country the patient is treated, the total number of lymph nodes… Read more about this study

About this study

D2 gastrectomy is standard treatment of early gastric cancer in Japan but in other countries there is still some discord, especially in Europe and North America. Although the quantity of metastasis cancer in lymph node defines survival regardless of which country the patient is treated, the total number of lymph nodes harvested is an important factor to predict accurate staging and/or D2 gastrectomy. Both of the number total lymph nodes and the metastasis lymph node status in gastric cancer are important factors to decide each prognosis. This study evaluated the correlation between total lymph nodes retrieved and metastasis node by lymph node ratio (LNR) status to determine the recurrence rate after curative resection of gastric

Read the detailed description

A retrospective chart review was made of all patients who presented with gastric cancer after curative surgery resection from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 2016 in Ramathibodi Hospital.Data of metastasis node by lymph node ratio (LNR) were evaluated. The total of lymph node less than 15 and more than 15 were evaluated. The Kaplan-Meier curve estimates recurrence survival (Log-rank test). The p-value < 0.05 is statistically significant.

OBJECTIVE :

The outcome of this study was evaluated lymph node ratio (LNR) status that determined by the ratio of total lymph node metastasis and the total lymph node which retrieved after performed the curative surgery and lymphadenectomy of gastric cancer. The correlation of LNR and prognosis of recurrence and survival of gastric cancer patients were evaluated and reported in this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. The correlation of lymph node ratio and survival of gastric cancer patients

    correlation of lymph node ratio and survival of gastric cancer patients.lymph node ratio was divided in to 5 ranges including 0.000-0.109, 0.110-0.209, 0.210-0.309, 0.410-0.609 and 0.610-1.000.

    Measured: 5 year

  2. The correlation of lymph node ratio and prognosis of recurrence of gastric cancer patients

    correlation of lymph node ratio and recurrence of gastric cancer patients.lymph node ratio was divided in to 5 ranges including 0.000-0.109, 0.110-0.209, 0.210-0.309, 0.410-0.609 and 0.610-1.000.

    Measured: 5 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The correlation of total of lymph node retrieved less than 15 and more than 15 nodes and survival of gastric cancer patients

    correlation of total of lymph node retrieved less than 15 and more than 15 nodes and survival of gastric cancer patients..lymph node ratio was divided in to 5 ranges including 0.000-0.109, 0.110-0.209, 0.210-0.309, 0.410-0.609 and 0.610-1.000.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastric Cancer, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

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 5 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 26 Mar 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 Thailand. 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 correlation of lymph node ratio and survival of gastric cancer patients (time frame: 5 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 26 Mar 2019.
