About this study

Official title: Billroth II With Braun Anastomosis Versus Billroth II Anastomosis After Radical Distal Gastrectomy With D2 Lymphadenectomy for Gastric Cancer: a Randomized Controlled Trial

The primary aim of this trial is to rigorously evaluate the comparative benefits and potential risks associated with Billroth II reconstruction with Braun anastomosis versus Billroth II reconstruction alone following distal gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy in patients diagnosed with gastric cancer. This assessment focuses on delineating the therapeutic efficacy, safety profile, and overall clinical outcomes of these two surgical approaches in treating this condition.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Billroth II reconstructionProcedure or surgery

    Billroth II reconstruction, in which a loop of jejunum is mobilized and anastomosed to the gastric remnant

  • Braun AnastomosisProcedure or surgery

    This is an additional surgical connection (anastomosis) created between two parts of the small intestine, specifically between the afferent (incoming) and efferent (outgoing) limbs of the jejunum near the gastrojejunostomy (the new connection between the stomach and small intestine created during a Billroth II procedure).

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of reflux gastritis assessed according to RGB classification

    by endoscopic evaluation

    Measured: 6 months, 12 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Quality of life assessed by the PGSAS-45 Scale

    The preoperative and postoperative QoL of patients between the two groups.

    Measured: 6 months, 12 months

  2. Nutritional status

    Changes in body weight (kg) or BMI from baseline

    Measured: 6 months, 12 months

  3. Time to first passage of flatus/stool

    Time taken to pass first stool or flatus

    Measured: within 30 days after surgery

  4. Postoperative complications (assessed according to the Clavien-Dindo)

    e.g., anastomotic leakage, anastomotic bleeding assessed by laboratory test in combination with clinical features, radiological diagnostic methods, endoscopy, diagnostic laparoscopy.

    Measured: within 30 days after surgery

  5. Long-term complications

    e.g., food residue and bile reflux (assessed according to the RGB classification).

    Measured: 6 months, 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Billroth II reconstruction and Braun Anastomosis in people with Gastric Cancer and Surgery, run by Sichuan University.

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 7 inclusion and 12 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 29 Jan 2024. 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 Zhaolun Cai, MD, PhD (+86-028-85423610, caizhaolun@foxmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of reflux gastritis assessed according to RGB classification (time frame: 6 months, 12 months). 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 Jan 2024.
