About this study

Official title: A Prospective Cohort Study for Gastric Cancer Prediction in Patients With Intestinal Metaplasia

In this study, we aim to establish a prospective cohort of patients with endoscopically and histologically confirmed intestinal metaplasia, collect gastric mucosal tissue samples from this cohort, and follow the development of gastric cancer over time.

Read the detailed description

Patients visiting Seoul National University Hospital, who have previously received an incidental diagnosis of intestinal metaplasia during a prior gastroscopy examination, will be considered as potential candidates for this study. Upon obtaining their informed consent to participate, the initial endoscopy procedure will involve the collection of biopsies to ensure an accurate histological diagnosis of intestinal metaplasia. These biopsies will be taken from the antrum and body of the stomach, according to the protocol of the updated Sydney system, to pathologically diagnose the extent and severity of intestinal metaplasia. One to two pieces of tissue remaining from this diagnostic process will be retained for future analysis. Subsequently, patients will be followed up on an outpatient basis to track the development of gastric cancer through routine screening endoscopies. In cases where patients develop gastric cancer, a comparative analysis will be conducted with those who do not develop gastric cancer, to determine the differences in expression of markers in the gastric mucosal tissue that was collected during the initial endoscopy. Our ultimate aim is to identify potential biomarkers that may serve as predictive indicators for the development of gastric cancer in patients with a preexisting diagnosis of intestinal metaplasia.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intestinal Metaplasia of Gastric Mucosa, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2024. 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 South Korea. 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?

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 Soo-Jeong Cho, MD, PhD (02-2072-4073, crystal5@snu.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Gastric Cancer Development (time frame: 10 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 29 Nov 2024.
