About this study

Official title: Preliminary Efficacy Analysis of Cheng's Giraffe Reconstruction After Proximal Gastrectomy in Early Adenocarcinoma of Esophagogastric Junction : A Prospective Open-label Study

In the past years, the adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) has been increasing obviously in China. It may be caused by the reason of increased body weight, alcohol consumption, gastroesophageal reflux disease and premalignant. In western countries, the 5-year rate of advanced AEG was less than 30%, it was the same in China. There was significant difference in epidemiology, pathogenic mechanism, biological characteristics and prognosis between AEG and antrum tumors, so AEG was regarded as a kind of independent disease. Up till now, the scope of lymph node dissected, the selection of operation approach, the resection range and the digestive tract reconstruction for the treatment of AEG were in dispute, especially in the reconstruction of digestive tract after operation. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of the proximal gastrectomy combined with Giraffe anastomosis for early adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction.

In the past years, the adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) has been increasing obviously in China. It may be caused by the reason of increased body weight, alcohol consumption, gastroesophageal reflux disease and premalignant. In western countries, the 5-year rate of advanced AEG was less than 30%, it was the same in China. There was significant difference in epidemiology, pathogenic mechanism, biological characteristics and prognosis between AEG and antrum tumors, so AEG was regarded as a kind of independent disease. Up till now, the scope of lymph node dissected, the selection of operation approach, the resection range and the digestive tract reconstruction for the treatment of AEG were in dispute, especially in the reconstruction of digestive tract after operation.

The digestive tract reconstruction methods for AEG II were determined by the surgical approach. The controversy exists regarding whether reconstruction method with low esophageal reflux should be used to treat AEG patients. The gastric tube reconstruction, the antrum-preserving double-tract reconstruction and the Roux-en-Y reconstruction were the common methods. Some studies showed that the 24-h pH profile in the patients with gastric tube reconstruction was similar to the healthy person, but it may be related to the increasing incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease in the healthy person and the anti-reflux medication used in the patients. Although the antrum-preserving double-tract reconstruction have a good function of anti-reflux, the complicated operation and too many anastomotic stomas increased the rate of postoperative happened. The common physiological mechanism of anti-reflux was caused by the lower esophageal sphincter, esophagogastric junction, His angle and so on. Therefore, in our center, we use a new reconstruction which combine the advantages of gastric tube reconstruction with rebuilding the His angle and fundus of gastric. We call it Gastric tube interposition esophagogastrostomy with reconstruction of His angle and fundus (Giraffe anastomosis).

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of reflux esophagitis after operation

    The rate of reflux esophagitis after operation will be assessed by gastrointestinal endoscopy with Los Angeles (LA) classification and the reflux disease questionnaire (RDQ) scores were used to evaluate postoperative gastroesophageal reflux.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Postoperative quality of life: European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC)

    Assessed by European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) quality of life questionnaire (QLQ) - C30 questionnaire, the total score ranges from 30 to 126, and higher values represent a worse outcome.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Postoperative recovery

    postoperative complication rate according to the Clavian-Dindo classification, postoperative death rate with 30 days

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Postoperative nutrition status

    Change of Hemoglobin, Vitamin B12 cumulative supplement quantity

    Measured: 12months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing proximal gastrectomy combined with Cheng's Giraffe reconstruction in people with Gastric Cancer and Reflux Esophagitis, run by Zhejiang Cancer 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 6 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 8 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 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.

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 Xiangdong Cheng, MD (+86-05714758155013, zyq201003@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of reflux esophagitis after operation (time frame: 12 months). 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 Dec 2020.
