Trial summary

In this population-based cohort study, data on patients diagnosed with nmGaC in 2004 through 2016, managed with resection and chemotherapy, followed up until the end of 2016, and surviving ≥1 month were retrieved from the US Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-18 Program.

Study population: Cases of non-metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma (nmGaC) were defined as patients with microscopically-confirmed first primary invasive adenocarcinoma of the stomach (International Classification of Diseases for Oncology, Third Edition (ICD-O-3) code: C16) without distant metastasis. Only those who underwent resection in January 2004 through December 2016 were included.

Cases of non-metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma (nmGaC) were defined as patients with microscopically-confirmed first primary invasive adenocarcinoma of the stomach (International Classification of Diseases for Oncology, Third Edition (ICD-O-3) code: C16) without distant metastasis. Only those who underwent resection in January 2004 through December 2016 were included. Cancers of other histology types including squamous cell carcinoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor or sarcoma, neuroendocrine tumor or carcinoid, lymphoma, and germ-cell tumor were ineligible, as were patients with non-gastric cancers involving the stomach, with benign or in situ tumors, or with other malignancies before gastric cancer. We further excluded patients with diagnosis based on death certificate only or autopsy, with missing follow-up period, survival status, or cause of death, or with unknown metastasis status. Cancers with distant metastasis were excluded since resection is not routinely recommended for them. Data before 2004 were not included, as the TNM stage information was unavailable. To minimize the effect of perioperative events on survival, we excluded patients surviving <1 month. No restrictions were applied to age, and patients ≥80 years only comprised 5% of those receiving both resection and chemotherapy.

About this study

Official title: Long-term Heart-specific Mortality in the Presence of Competing Risks Among Patients With Non-metastatic Gastric Adenocarcinoma Undergoing Resection and Chemotherapy A Population-based Cohort Study of 21,257 Cases, 2004-2016

In this population-based cohort study, data on patients diagnosed with nmGaC in 2004 through 2016, managed with resection and chemotherapy, followed up until the end of 2016, and surviving ≥1 month were retrieved from the US Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-18 Program. Cumulative mortality functions were calculated. Prognostic factors for heart-specific mortality were evaluated using both multivariable-adjusted Fine-Gray subdistribution and cause-specific hazard functions.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cumulative mortality

    Cumulative incidence functions (CIFs), which, unlike the standard Kaplan-Meier method, allow for estimation of the incidence of the occurrence of an event while taking competing risks from other causes of death into account, were computed and plotted for cause-specific mortalities.

    Measured: Jan 12, 2020-Mar 5, 2021

  2. Prognostic factors for disease-specific mortalities

    Evaluated using both multivariable-adjusted Fine-Gray subdistribution and cause-specific hazard functions.

    Measured: Jan 12, 2020-Mar 5, 2021

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Long-term Heart-specific Mortality in the Presence of Competing Risks Among Patients With Gastric Adenocarcinoma Undergoing Resection and Chemotherapy, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 29 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Cumulative mortality (time frame: Jan 12, 2020-Mar 5, 2021). 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 29 Mar 2021.
