About this study

Official title: Two-arm Phase III Trial Comparing Different Time of Endoscopic Photodynamic Therapy on Esophageal and/or Gastric Cardiac Cancer

The therapy of photofrin PDT was effective in improving life quality of patients with advanced esophageal and/or gastric cardiac cancer and the time optimizing for employing laser irradiation was of great importance.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and adverse effects of Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) on esophageal and/or gastric cardiac cancer during different time after inject photofrin.

Read the detailed description

The investigators plan to recruit the patients who were pathologically confirmed with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma or gastric cardia adenocarcinoma from the Oct.2015. The patients will be divided into two groups. Group 1: Following intravenous administration of photofrin at dose of 2 mg/kg.b.w. as the photosensitizer, 630 nm laser irradiation (DIOMED) with 400 mW/cm was applied on each part of tumor for 750 seconds through cylinder diffusing quartz fibers localizing in the biopsy channel of a flexible endoscope at 24th. Group 2: Following intravenous administration of photofrin at dose of 2 mg/kg.b.w. as the photosensitizer, 630 nm laser irradiation (DIOMED) with 400 mW/cm was applied on each part of tumor for 750 seconds through cylinder diffusing quartz fibers localizing in the biopsy channel of a flexible endoscope at 48th.

What is being measured

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

  1. Partial remission rate

    Photodynamic therapy for 3 months after the review of gastroscope for pathologic examination, to check the response rate

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The recent incidence of adverse reactions

    Observe 7-10 days postoperatively in patients with the ratio of pain and difficulty swallowing

    Measured: 7-10 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing photosensitizer(photofrin) and 630 nm laser irradiation (DIOMED) in people with Stage I Esophageal Adenocarcinoma and Stage II Esophageal Adenocarcinoma, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Science and Technology 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 4 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Shegan Gao, Doctor (18638859977, gsg112258@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Partial remission rate (time frame: 3 months). 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 NCT02628665, which also lists 2 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 11 Dec 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
