Trial summary

Recently, laparoscopic gastrectomy has been gradually accepted by surgeons worldwide for gastric cancer treatment. Complete dissection of the lymph nodes and the establishment of the surgical margin are the most important considerations for curative gastric cancer surgery. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: To Evaluate Whether the Clinical Efficacy of Laparoscopic Lymph Node Dissection With Indocyanine Green Tracer is Better Than Without Indocyanine Green Tracer

Recently, laparoscopic gastrectomy has been gradually accepted by surgeons worldwide for gastric cancer treatment. Complete dissection of the lymph nodes and the establishment of the surgical margin are the most important considerations for curative gastric cancer surgery. Previous studies have demonstrated that indocyanine green (ICG)-traced laparoscopic gastrectomy significantly improves the completeness of lymph node dissection. However, it remains difficult to identify the tumor location intraoperatively for gastric cancers that are staged ≤T3. Here, the investigatorsinvestigated the feasibility of ICG fluorescence for lymph node mapping and tumor localization during totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.Preoperative and perioperative data from consecutive patients with gastric cancer who underwent a laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy were collected and analyzed. The investigators want to know if near-infrared fluorescence imaging with ICG can be successfully used in laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy, and if it contributes to both the completeness of D2 lymph node dissection and confirmation of the gastric transection line. The application of ICG labeled near infrared imaging fluorescence laparoscopic technology is still in the stage of exploration and experience accumulation, and it needs to be comprehensively evaluated through a large number of prospective randomized controlled studies.

However, it remains difficult to identify the tumor location intraoperatively for gastric cancers that are staged ≤T3. Here, the investigatorsinvestigated the feasibility of ICG fluorescence for lymph node mapping and tumor localization during totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.Preoperative and perioperative data from consecutive patients with gastric cancer who underwent a laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy were collected and analyzed. The investigators want to know if near-infrared fluorescence imaging with ICG can be successfully used in laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy, and if it contributes to both the completeness of D2 lymph node dissection and confirmation of the gastric transection line. The application of ICG labeled near infrared imaging fluorescence laparoscopic technology is still in the stage of exploration and experience accumulation, and it needs to be comprehensively evaluated through a large number of prospective randomized controlled studies.By recruiting patients and signing informed consent, randomized control was used to divide patients into the experimental group (fluorescently labeled fluorescently laparoscopic proximal gastric cancer surgery) and the control group (fluorescently labeled fluorescently laparoscopic proximal gastric cancer surgery). In the experimental group, indocyanine green fluorescence labeling was performed under gastroscope before surgery and internal jugular vein puncture was performed routinely for better fluid replenishment after surgery. Lymph nodes and diseased stomach tissues were collected during operation. Postoperative assessment was made for ICU support, routine acid-suppressing therapy, prophylactic antibiotics, analgesia, and nausea suppression. The patients were followed up for 3 years. The primary outcome was 3-year disease-free survival, and the secondary outcome was lymph node positive rate, early complication rate and surgical mortality. The investigators plan to obtain more precise evidence-based medical evidence through this project.

What is being measured

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

  1. Three-year disease-free survival rate

    To evaluate the difference of 3-year disease-free survival rate between the experimental group and the control group

    Measured: Through study completion,an average of 3 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. lymph node positive rate

    To evaluate the difference oflymph node positive rate between the experimental group and the control group

    Measured: up to 1 week

  2. Incidence of early complications

    The incidence of lymphatic leakage, shock and gastric stump leakage were used as secondary outcome measures

    Measured: up to 1 week

  3. operative mortality

    To investigate whether the mortality of laparoscopic proximal gastric cancer surgery marked with indocyanine green was lower than that of the control group

    Measured: up to 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing indocyanine green labeled fluorescent laparoscopy in people with Gastric Cancer, run by Guangyong Zhang.

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 6 inclusion and 8 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 May 2022. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Three-year disease-free survival rate (time frame: Through study completion,an average of 3 years). 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 27 May 2022.
