About this study

This is a large multicenter retrospective French cohort conducted in seven French centers that had performed at least five G-POEM procedures at the end of 2017. All patients treated by G-POEM for refractory gastroparesis since April 30, 2014 (first case of GPOEM in France) in these seven centers were included in this study and followed until April 2019. The data were collected retrospectively regarding medical and technical data, and then prospectively for the following data, which were included in a database for each center and combined for analysis.

Gastric Cardinal Symptoms Index (GCSI) was used to evaluate symptoms and their severity. It applies a Likert scale ranging from 0 to 5 (5 being the highest score) for three subscales: satiety (mean of four items), nausea/vomiting (mean of three items), and bloating (mean of two items). The total GCSI score was the mean of the three subscales. A GCSI score ≥ 2.6 is considered moderate gastroparesis and ≥ 3 is considered severe.

Gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) was used to confirm delayed gastric emptying, since it is considered the gold standard according to the American Society of Neurogastroenterology. Patients consume a radiolabeled meal, receive imaging at specific time-points to determine gastric retention. The exam is pathological when retention is > 90% after 1 hour, > 60% after 2 hours (H2), > 30% after 3 hours (H3), and > 10% after 4 hours (H4). All but one center performed the GES according to the US guidelines: that center performed a 3-hour GES with a local validation of a threshold of 30% retention at H3 to define delayed gastric emptying. A %H4 retention > 30% was defined as severe delayed gastric emptying.

What participants receive

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

  • Gastric Peroral Endoscopic MyotomyProcedure or surgery

    Creation by submucosal dissection of a tunnel in the gastric wall at the level of the antrum, then of a pyloric and antral myotomy, before closing the mucosal access by clips.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical success of G-POEM

    evaluate the clinical success at the 1-year follow-up, defined by a decrease in the GCSI score by at least 1 point compared to baseline.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Incidence of adverse events of pylorotomy

    analysis of adverse events during the two years following the pylorotomy (including perforation per-gesture, bleeding post-gesture). ASGE lexicon will be used to grade these adverse events

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Clinical success of G-POEM

    evaluate the clinical success at the 1-year follow-up, defined by a decrease in the Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptoms Index score by at least 1 point compared to baseline. GCSI is a Likert scale ranging from 0 to 5 (5 being the worst score) for three subscales: satiety (mean of four items), nausea/vomiting (mean of three items), and bloating (mean of two items). The total GCSI score was the mean of the three subscales. A GCSI score ≥ 2.6 is considered moderate gastroparesis and ≥ 3 is considered severe.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Delayed gastric emptying after the procedure

    Gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) was used to confirm delayed gastric emptying, since it is considered the gold standard according to the American Society of Neurogastroenterology. Patients consume a radiolabeled meal, receive imaging at specific time-points to determine gastric retention. The exam is pathological when retention is > 90% after 1 hour, > 60% after 2 hours (H2), > 30% after 3 hours (H3), and > 10% after 4 hours (H4). Percent retention at 2hours and 4hours will be compared before and after the procedure.

    Measured: 2 years

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?

Clinical success of G-POEM (time frame: 1 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 NCT04024709, which also lists 7 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 18 Jul 2019.
