About this study

Official title: Risk of Gastric Cancer in High-risk Carriers of Helicobacter Pylori: an Observational Cohort Study

This study is intended to be a prospective observational cohort study. The incidence of gastric cancer and progression of gastric precancerous lesions will be compared between groups through prospective follow-up of a population with baseline negative gastric endoscopy, harboring high-risk Hp SNP subtypes and non-high-risk subtypes.

Read the detailed description

Primary study objective: to assess the difference in the incidence of gastric cancer between carriers of high-risk SNP subtypes of H. pylori and the non-high-risk population during the follow-up period.

Secondary research objectives: 1. To observe and compare the cumulative incidence and progression of gastric precancerous lesions (e.g., atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia, etc.) in each population group during the follow-up period.2. To explore the interaction of high-risk SNPs on the risk of gastric cancer in the context of different age, gender or other risk factors (e.g. diet, smoking, alcohol abuse, family history, etc.).

What participants receive

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

  • observational studyOther

    By prospectively following a population of asymptomatic carriers carrying high-risk Hp SNP subtypes and non-high-risk subtypes, the incidence of gastric cancer and progression of gastric precancerous lesions were compared between the groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in incidence of gastric cancer between the three groups (HP positive high-risk, HP positive non-high-risk, and HP negative) during a 3-year follow-up.

    Evaluate the difference in the incidence of gastric cancer between high-risk and non-high-risk groups, while considering the comparison with the HP negative group. The comparison between the three groups (HP positive high-risk, HP positive non-high-risk, and HP negative) will assess the difference in gastric cancer incidence during a 3-year follow-up. Gastric cancer incidence will be determined based on pathological confirmation (biopsy results).

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of the study in 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Difference in incidence of gastric cancer between the three groups (HP positive high-risk, HP positive non-high-risk, and HP negative) at 5-, and 10-year follow-up time points.

    Evaluate the difference in the incidence of gastric cancer between high-risk and non-high-risk groups, while considering the comparison with the HP negative group. The comparison between the three groups (HP positive high-risk, HP positive non-high-risk, and HP negative) will assess the difference in gastric cancer incidence at 5-, and 10-year follow-up time points. Gastric cancer incidence will be determined based on pathological confirmation (biopsy results).

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of the study in 10 years

  2. Differences in the incidence of gastric precancerous lesions among three groups (Hp-positive high-risk, Hp-positive non-high-risk, and Hp-negative) at 3-, 5-, and 10-year follow-up time points.

    Evaluate the difference in the incidence of precancerous lesions between high-risk and non-high-risk groups at 3-, 5-, and 10-year follow-up time points, while considering the HP negative group. This comparison will also help assess the effect of HP infection on the development of precancerous lesions.

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of the study in 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastric (Stomach) Cancer and Helicobacter Infection, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 5 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 25 Feb 2026. 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 China. 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 Dazhi Xu, PhD (86-18121299796, xudzh@fudan.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Difference in incidence of gastric cancer between the three groups (HP positive high-risk, HP positive non-high-risk, and HP negative) during a 3-year follow-up. (time frame: From enrollment to the end of the study in 3 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 25 Feb 2026.
