Trial summary

A new Magnetic-controlled Capsule Endoscopy (MCE) was developed by ANKON and got SFDA's approval in China in 2013. It has recently been evaluated to compare the diagnostic accuracy of MCE with that of standard gastroscopy for gastric diseases in 70 patients with encouraging results (In Press).

About this study

Official title: Magnetic-controlled Capsule Endoscopy vs. Gastroscopy for Detection of Gastric Diseases: A Prospective Self-controlled Comparative Multicenter Trial

A new Magnetic-controlled Capsule Endoscopy (MCE) was developed by ANKON and got SFDA's approval in China in 2013. It has recently been evaluated to compare the diagnostic accuracy of MCE with that of standard gastroscopy for gastric diseases in 70 patients with encouraging results (In Press). To further testify the diagnostic accuracy of MCE for both the diffuse and focal diseases in stomach, we performed this single-blinded multi-center prospective study compared MCE with gastroscopy in patients with gastric symptoms and indication for upper GI Endoscopy.

Being tested
MCE, Standard gastroscopy
Medical subject headings
Stomach Diseases, Stomach Ulcer, Polyposis, Gastric, Stomach Neoplasms

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of subjects diagnosed with gastric diffuse lesions by MCE Versus Standard Gastroscopy

    Measured: 2 days

  2. Number of gastric focal lesions founded by MCE Versus Standard Gastroscopy

    Measured: 2 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Volume of water and drugs used for gastric preparation

    Measured: 1 hour

  2. Scores of the cleanliness of stomach after preparation

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Percentage of patients in whom there was complete visualization of the gastric surface in the antrum, body, and fundus and identification of the cardia and pylorus

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Examination times of MCE and standard gastroscopy

    Measured: 1 day

  5. Patient acceptance of MCE and standard gastroscopy

    Measured: 3 days

  6. Adverse events of both procedures

    Measured: 2 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing MCE and Standard gastroscopy in people with Gastric Diseases, and Gastric Ulcer,, run by Changhai Hospital 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 3 inclusion and 8 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jul 2015. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of subjects diagnosed with gastric diffuse lesions by MCE Versus Standard Gastroscopy (time frame: 2 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02219529, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 21 Jul 2015.
