About this study

The aim of this observational study was to understand the effect of radiofrequency ablation on subjects with moderate to severe gastric atrophy with enterocolitis with or without low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia who underwent radiofrequency ablation. The main question it aims to answer is:

Does radiofrequency ablation therapy reduce gastric mucosal atrophy and enterosis in subjects with moderate to severe gastric atrophy with enterosis with or without low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia?

Read the detailed description

Outpatient or inpatient collection of study participants was done by recruiting participants who met the inclusion criteria and did not meet the exclusion criteria and signed an informed consent form. Study participants were identified for enrollment and a case report form was completed. The basic demographic information of the study participants was recorded, along with the results of existing routine laboratory tests, and symptom-related clinical characteristics. Gastroenterology reports and pathology reports were retained for enrolled study participants to score and grade each study participant specifically, and all study participants were treated with radiofrequency ablation after enrollment. Follow-up gastroscopy was performed on study participants 3 months after treatment, adverse reactions during the two gastroscopies were recorded and case report forms were supplemented, gastroscopy reports and pathology reports of study participants were retained again, and gastroscopy reports and pathology reports of study participants were evaluated, and data on changes were summarized. Follow-up gastroscopy was performed on study participants 3 months after treatment, adverse reactions during the two gastroscopies of study participants were recorded and additional case report forms were completed, gastroscopy reports and pathology reports of study participants were again retained and gastroscopy reports and pathology reports of study participants were evaluated, and data on changes were summarized. Study participants who failed treatment but did not develop new intraepithelial neoplasia summarized the reasons for their failure and were re-treated with radiofrequency ablation 3 months later, and this was repeated until treatment was successful; study participants who developed new low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia were treated with radiofrequency ablation at post-treatment follow-up, and this was repeated until treatment was successful; and study participants who developed new intermediate- and high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia were treated with ESD at post-treatment follow-up, and this was repeated until treatment was successful. All data were summarized at the end of enrollment for all study participants and statistically analyzed.

What participants receive

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

  • Radiofrequency ablation aloneProcedure or surgery

    Endoscopic radiofrequency ablation (RFA) consists of delivering a 465 KHz energy waveform to the diseased tissue through an array of bipolar electrodes. The electrodes are mounted externally to the balloon, on an articulating platform attached to the distal end of the endoscope, or on a flexible catheter that penetrates the scope. The principle of radiofrequency ablation is that the action of high-frequency alternating current (HFAC) induces the movement of charged particles within the tissue to generate heat, which results in evaporation of water inside and outside the cell, drying, and solidifying and shedding to the point of aseptic necrosis.RFA has been demonstrated to safely, effectively, and durably eradicate early stage tumors of Barrett's esophagus as well as gastric low-grade endoepithelial neoplasia, and is said by a consensus of experts to be capable of treating moderately severe atrophic enterocolitis that has not yet progressed to gastric low-grade intraepithelial neoplasi

What is being measured

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

  1. Eradication and remission rates after radiofrequency ablation therapy in study participants with moderate to severe gastric atrophic enterosis with or without low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia

    Measured: 3 Months After Participants Underwent Radiofrequency Ablation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Procedure time for radiofrequency ablation therapy in study participants with moderate to severe gastric atrophic enterocolitis with or without low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia

    Measured: Within 24 hours after the participant underwent radiofrequency ablation

  2. Length of hospitalization for radiofrequency ablation in study participants with moderate to severe gastric atrophic enterocolitis with or without low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia

    Measured: Within 24 hours after participants were successfully discharged from the hospital after undergoing radiofrequency ablation procedures

  3. Incidence of adverse reactions to radiofrequency ablation therapy in study participants with moderate to severe gastric atrophic enterocolitis with or without low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia

    Measured: 3 Months After Participants Underwent Radiofrequency Ablation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrophic Gastritis, run by Xiuli Zuo.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 27 Dec 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 Xiuli Zuo Zuo (15665780271, zuoxiuli@sdu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Eradication and remission rates after radiofrequency ablation therapy in study participants with moderate to severe gastric atrophic enterosis with or without low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (time frame: 3 Months After Participants Underwent Radiofrequency Ablation). 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 27 Dec 2024.
