About this study

Official title: Protocol for Comparing the Efficacy of Three Reconstruction Methods of the Digestive Tract (Kamikawa Versus Single-Tract Jejunal Interposition Versus SOFY Reconstruction) After Proximal Gastrectomy

The efficacy of three different reconstruction methods after proximal gastrectomy will be investigated in this study through a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial.

Read the detailed description

In the trial, 180 patients with proximal early gastric cancer will be enrolled and then randomly assigned to one of three groups: Group A (Kamikawa, n = 60), Group B (single-tract jejunal interposition, n = 60), or Group C (SOFY reconstruction, n = 60). The general information, past medical history, laboratory and imaging findings, and surgical procedures of each patient will be recorded. Patients in Group A, Group B and Group C will receive Kamikaze reconstruction, single-tract jejunal interposition reconstruction and SOFY reconstruction respectively after standard proximal gastrectomy and lymph nodes dissection. The primary endpoint will be the incidence of reflux esophagitis, while the incidence of anastomotic leakage, anastomotic stenosis, operative time, and intraoperative blood loss will be secondary endpoints to compare the efficacy of these three reconstruction methods after proximal gastrectomy.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. incidence of reflux esophagitis

    The percentage (%) of patients developing postoperative reflux esophagitis after surgery in each group.

    Measured: 24 months after surgery

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. incidence of anastomotic leakage

    The percentage (%) of patients developing postoperative anastomotic leakage after surgery in each group.

    Measured: 14 days after surgery

  2. incidence of anastomotic stenosis

    The percentage (%) of patients developing anastomotic stenosis after surgery in each group.

    Measured: 24 months after surgery

  3. operative time

    The duration, measured in minutes, spent on reconstructing the digestive tract using specific method (Kamikawa, STJI or SOFY) following proximal gastrectomy.

    Measured: 1 day after surgery

  4. intraoperative blood loss

    The amount of blood, measured in milliliters, lost during the reconstruction of digestive tract using specific method (Kamikawa, STJI or SOFY) following proximal gastrectomy.

    Measured: 1 day after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Kamikawa, STJI and SOFY in people with Proximal Gastric Adenocarcinoma and Gastrectomy, run by Changzhi People's Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College.

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 9 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 5 Oct 2023. 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?

Contact Dr.Hu (+8613509754125, beibeihejiyy@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

incidence of reflux esophagitis (time frame: 24 months after surgery). 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 5 Oct 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
