Trial summary

Cirrhotic patients may be at high risk for esophageal cancer. Endoscopic resection is the standard treatment for superficial tumors. However, cirrhosis might be associated with upper gastrointestinal bleeding, particularly in case of portal hypertension or coagulopathy. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Endoscopic Resection of Early Esophageal Tumors in the Context of Cirrhosis or Portal Hypertension: a Multicenter Observational Study

Cirrhotic patients may be at high risk for esophageal cancer. Endoscopic resection is the standard treatment for superficial tumors. However, cirrhosis might be associated with upper gastrointestinal bleeding, particularly in case of portal hypertension or coagulopathy. This study aims to assess safety, efficacy and methods to prevent potential complications in cirrhosis or portal hypertension context for esophageal endoscopic resection.

This retrospective multicentric French-Belgian study includes all consecutive patients with cirrhosis or portal hypertension who underwent esophageal endoscopic resection from January 2005 to 2021.

Being tested
Endosocpic resection of early esophageal tumor

What is being measured

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

  1. technical success of early esophageal cancer resection

    defined by a complete macroscopic resection

    Measured: baseline

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. adverse events per procedure (immediate bleeding, perforation)

    Measured: baseline

  2. morbidity post procedure (delayed bleeding, infection, esophageal stenosis, 30-days related liver decompensation, 30-days related mortality)

    Measured: up to 4 weeks

  3. Potential risk factors for adverse events

    Measured: baseline

  4. preemptive methods to the risk of bleeding

    Measured: baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Esophageal Neoplasms and Cirrhosis, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France.

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 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 6 Aug 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?

technical success of early esophageal cancer resection (time frame: baseline). 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 6 Aug 2021.
