Trial summary

Spleen Deficiency Syndrome(SDS)is a widely researched issue, but due to the limitations of the research methods, the scientific mechanism of SDS is biased and not comprehensive. SDS would be researched in this project deeply and systematically with modern life-scientific methods. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: System Biology Research of Spleen Qi Deficiency Associated "Qi Deficiency Constitution-Disease"

Spleen Deficiency Syndrome(SDS)is a widely researched issue, but due to the limitations of the research methods, the scientific mechanism of SDS is biased and not comprehensive. SDS would be researched in this project deeply and systematically with modern life-scientific methods. Based on the previous work, the participants, with SDS, suffering from Qi deficiency syndrome--chronic superficial gastritis--chronic atrophic gastritis--gastric cancer would be included, and the corresponding research would be conducted at the molecular-cell-gastric tissue level, and at the same time, systematical biological database of SDS would be built by systematical biological methods, such as pioneered SPARS sequencing technology created in our research group, proteomics and metabonomics. Under the above work, the investigators would conduct data mining and molecular network analysis, and then verify the key functions. By analyzing the systematical biological features of syndrome and its relationships with constitution and disease, this study would provide a new basis for objective reality of syndrome, and also offer a crucial premise of revealing biological basis for syndrome correctly, which is of important theoretical and practical significance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Examination of the stomach with an endoscope.

    Endoscopic diagnosis standard of chronic gastritis according to Chinese Society of Digestive Endoscopy.

    Measured: at the beginning of the enrollment

  2. Pathological biopsy of gastric mucosa.

    Pathological diagnosis standard of chronic gastritis according to Chinese Society of Gastroenterology.Pathological diagnosis standard of gastric cancer according to Ministry of Health P.R.China

    Measured: at the beginning of the enrollment

  3. Detection of helicobacter pylori by Urea Breath Test(UBT)

    Measured: at the beginning of the enrollment

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Analysis of gastric mucosa/venous blood/urine by system biology techniques

    Measured: Three measurements within 1 year

  2. Constitutional classification of TCM assessed by the Traditional Chinese Medicine Physical Constitution Scale

    Measured: at the beginning of the enrollment

  3. TCM syndrome type diagnosed by two professional TCM doctors

    Measured: at the beginning of the enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastritis, Atrophic and Gastric Cancer, run by Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.

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 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Sep 2016. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xiaopu Sang (+86 15101021386, sxp@bucm.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Examination of the stomach with an endoscope. (time frame: at the beginning of the enrollment). The study lists 3 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 NCT02915393, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Sep 2016.
