About this study

Official title: Long-term Outcomes of Open Versus Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy for T4a Gastric Cancer: a Propensity Score-matched Cohort Study

There are more than 75% of patients with gastric cancer who are diagnosed in advanced stage in Vietnam, most of cases in T4a. The purpose of this study was to compare short- and long- term outcomes of open and laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma in surgical T4A stage.

Read the detailed description

Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers in Vietnam . Despite recent advances in multimodality treatment and targeted therapy, surgery remains the first option of treament for this disease. For resectable gastric cancer, complete removal of macroscopic and microscopic lesions and/or combined resections and also regional or extended lymphadenectomy should represent worldwide now.

Laparoscopic gastrectomy for locally advanced gastric cancer AGC have commonly used for treatment of AGC, especially in Japan, Korea and China. However, the real role of laparoscop for treament of (AGC) is still controversial in term of technical feasibility, safety and oncologic aspect for T4a stage.

Paragastric inflammatory strands may occur in T4a tumor so that laparoscopic technique is difficult to radically perform. Peritoneal seeding of malignant cells, intra- and postoperative complications, trocarts metastasis may risk during procedures. Despite, some studies have demonstrated the safety and the short-term benefits of LG for T4a gastric cancer, the number of these studies and sample sizes have been still inadequate to give good evidence for applying it. and long-term oncologic outcomes There are more than 75% of patients with gastric cancer who are diagnosed in advanced stage in Vietnam, most of cases in T4a. The purpose of this study was to compare short- and long- term outcomes of open and laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma in surgical T4A stage.

  • Laparoscopic distal gastrectomyProcedure or surgery

    Distal gastrectomy and standard D2 lymphadenectomy

Study groups in NCT05493358
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Open distal gastrectomyAn incision of 15~20 cm length is made in the abdominal midline . Standard distal gastrectomy and omentectomy will be performed with D2 lymph node dissection (around common hepatic artery, celiac artery, proximal part of splenic artery, proper hepatic artery) . As a general rule, Billroth I, Billroth II or Roux en Y method was used for gastric reconstruction.
Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy5 trocar were used. The gastrocolic ligament was divided along the border of the transverse colon. ligating the left gastroepiploic vessels to remove group 4sb. The right gastroepiploic vein was divided and the right gastroepiploic and the inferior pyloric artery were vascularized and cut at their origin from the gastroduodenal artery, just above the pancreatic head, to dissect group 6. The dissection was continued along the hepatoduodenal ligament to removed group 5 and group 12a and along the common hepatic artery to remove group 8a and along the celiac axis to remove group 9. The left gastric vein was prepared and separately divided and then the left gastric artery was vascularized to remove group 7. The dissection was continued upward along the proximal branches of splenic vessels to remove group 11p and along the lesser curvature to remove group 1,3. As a general rule, Billroth I, Billroth II or Roux en Y method was used for gastric reconstruction.
Receives: Procedure: Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastric Cancer, run by University Medical Center Ho Chi Minh City (UMC) at 1 site in Vietnam.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 May 2023. 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 Vietnam. 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?

5 year overall survival by Kaplan Mayer (time frame: 5 year 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?
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 May 2023.
