About this study

Official title: Operative and Long Term Oncological Outcomes After D2 Versus D1 Gastrectomy of Operable Gastric Cancer

Surgery is the mainstay treatment of operable gastric carcinoma but the optimal extent of lymph node (LN) dissection is controversial. The aim of this observational study is to assess the outcomes after curative D2 compared to D1 gastrectomy of operable gastric carcinoma regarding operative and long term oncological outcomes.

Read the detailed description

This observational study included 80 consecutive patients presented by operable gastric cancer treated by D2 gastrectomy at Alexandria University hospital between January 2010 and January 2016, (Group I). Another 68 consecutive patients presented by operable gastric cancer treated by D1 gastrectomy earlier during the same period were included as a control (Group II). All patients had undergone preoperative gastroscopy and biopsy, chest and abdomen computed tomography (CT). All surgeries were performed by surgeons experienced in both D1 and D2 dissection and a standardized protocol for D1 and D2 gastrectomy was followed in all patients. The type of gastrectomy (distal or total) was done according to the site of the tumor; distal gastrectomy was done if there is a free safety margin of 4 cm beyond the proximal resection line otherwise total gastrectomy was done. Resection of the spleen and/or pancreatic tail were done if directly invaded by the primary tumor or metastatic LN. Patients with p T2 or greater, or with positive LN received adjuvant chemotherapy. Follow up was done as outpatient visits for average 5 years. Both groups were compared regarding postoperative morbidity and mortality, disease recurrence and survival rates.

    Frequency of early postoperative complications

    Measured: 30 days after surgery

  2. Operative mortality rate

    Frequency of early postoperative mortality

    Measured: 30 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. 5 years Recurrence rate

    Frequency of tumor recurrence within 5 years after curative surgery

    Measured: 5 years after surgery

  2. 5 years Cancer specific mortality rate

    Frequency of Cancer specific mortality within 5 years after curative surgery

    Measured: 5 years after surgery

  3. 5 years Disease free survival rate

    Percentage of patients survived for 5 years after surgery without tumor recurrence

    Measured: 5 years after surgery

  4. 5 years Overall survival rate

    Percentage of patients survived for 5 years after surgery with/without tumor recurrence

    Measured: 5 years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastric Cancer, run by Alexandria University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 4 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 12 Jun 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 Egypt. 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?

Postoperative morbidity rate (time frame: 30 days after surgery). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04429841, which also lists 2 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 12 Jun 2020.
