About this study

Official title: Risk Assessment and Syndrome Evolution Models Combining Traditional Chinese Medicine and Modern Medicine Indicators for Chronic Atrophic Gastritis Malignant Transformation: a Registry Study

Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is acknowledged as the precancerous stage of gastric cancer (GC). The present study aims to developed risk assessment and syndrome evolution models of CAG malignant transformation events combining TCM indicators with modern medicine indicators. The proposed study is a registry study based participant survey conducted in 4 hospitals in Beijing, China. After obtaining informed consent, a total of 2000 study patients diagnosed with CAG will be recruited. 10-year follow-ups are carried out on-site in hospitals and off-site by telephone to track malignant transformation events.

Read the detailed description

Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is acknowledged as the precancerous stage of gastric cancer (GC). Active treatment of CAG is vital in arresting malignant transformation. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been widely used in treating CAG and preventing GC. To date, no study has been conducted to assess the risk and syndrome evolution features of CAG malignant transformation by establishing models combining both TCM and modern medicine indicators.

The present study aims to developed risk assessment and syndrome evolution models of CAG malignant transformation events combining TCM indicators with modern medicine indicators. The proposed study is a registry study based participant survey conducted in 4 hospitals in Beijing, China. After obtaining informed consent, a total of 2000 study patients diagnosed with CAG will be recruited. 10-year follow-ups are carried out on-site in hospitals and off-site by telephone to track malignant transformation events. Comparative analysis of prevalence of malignant transformation events and presenting TCM or modern medicine features in different groups is conducted using frequency analysis and chi-squared tests, and expressed with composition ratios. Correlation analysis of malignant transformation events and TCM or modern medicine factors will be performed using logistic regression, and multivariate Cox proportional hazard model respectively. Exploratory factor analysis, correspondence analysis, association rule analysis, hierarchical clustering analysis, and complex system entropy clustering analysis will also be performed respectively for validating features of syndrome evolution in CAG malignant transformation process.

Previous reports on modern medicine indicators based risk assessment model for ischemic stroke endpoint events exist, but no studies have been undertaken combining TCM features. The risk assessment model combining both TCM and modern medicine indicators has the potential to facilitate early warning, early intervention and early control of CAG malignant transformation. The syndrome evolution model will help evaluate the core TCM pathogenesis of CAG malignant transformation so as to promote optimization of treatment strategies.

What is being measured

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

  1. malignant transformation events of chronic atrophic gastritis

    The primary outcome measures will be the malignant transformation events of chronic atrophic gastritis, including gastric mucosal atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, gastric intraepithelial dysplasia, and gastric carcinoma, according to the definition given by "Chronic Gastritis Diagnosis and Treatment Consensus of China (version 2012)", as promulgated by the Society of Gastroenterology, Chinese Medical Association.

    Measured: 10 years follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Risk Assessment of Chronic Atrophic Gastritis Malignant Transformation, run by Beijing University of Chinese Medicine at 2 sites 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 29 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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 Yin Zhang, MD (86-17710830835, coolzhangyin@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

malignant transformation events of chronic atrophic gastritis (time frame: 10 years follow-up). 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 29 Dec 2020.
