About this study

Official title: The Effect of Mosapride Citrate on Gastrointestinal Motility After Laparoscopic Gastrectomy: Prospective, Double Blind Placebo-controlled Study

"Mosapride citrate is a 5-hydroxytryptamine 4 receptor agonist, and is widely used as an agent to increase intestinal motility. Mosapride citrate has been demonstrated in in vitro and in vivo studies to increase both gastric and colon motility. In a case-control study of patients undergoing colonectomy, mosapride citrate was found to significantly reduce gas passing and defecation time.

Recently, a study reported that mosapride citrate acts on the α7nACh receptor and, consequently, suppresses the inflammatory response of macrophages, thereby suppressing the mechanism that induces paralysis after surgery.

To date, this study is intended to analyze whether mosapride citrate significantly affects the improvement of bowel movement after surgery after gastrectomy."

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mosapride citrate in people with Stomach Cancer, run by Gangnam Severance Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jan 2025. 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 South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

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?

The number of radiopaque markers transferred to the large intestine 3 days after surgery (time frame: 3 Days after surgery). 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 8 Jan 2025.
