About this study

Currently, there is no Brazilian or Latin American epidemiological data, such as clinical-pathological characteristics, standard treatments and outcomes of gastric cancer and pancreatic cancer in the region. The study aims to create a Latin American multicenter database to analyze epidemiological, clinical, and pathological data, treatments, outcomes, and biological information from patients with gastric and pancreatic cancer.

Read the detailed description

Patients diagnosed with gastric and gastroesophageal junction or pancreatic cancer after January 2019 at participating sites will be included. Data will be collected from medical records in selected centers that comprise different countries from Latin America. Data collection will begin on the time of site activation.

Patients recruited for this study will be identified in the participating sites. Data from clinical, demographic, and socioeconomic variables will be collected. Also, data on treatments performed and outcomes will be abstracted. The patient data sources will be the medical records of the patients. Patients will continue to receive treatment and clinical evaluations for gastric and gastroesophageal junction or pancreatic cancer according to what is determined by their medical team, according to the usual standards of treatment and clinical practice of each center.

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?

Describe the treatment patterns (time frame: During study duration (one year)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
