About this study

Official title: Randomized Controlled Trials on Clinical Outcomes of Total Robotic Versus Robotic Assisted Distal Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer

To evaluate the clinical efficacy (safety, feasibility and long-term efficacy) of total robotic versus robotic assisted distal gastrectomy for patients with gastric cancer (cT1-4a, N0/+, M0).

Read the detailed description

In the field of gastrectomy, Hashizume et al. first reported robotic gastrectomy in 2002. Since then, reports on the safety and feasibility of the application of robotic surgical system in the treatment of gastric cancer (GC) have gradually increased. Reports of robotic surgery for GC are increasing, especially in Asia. Several studies confirmed the advantages of robotic gastrectomy when compared with laparoscopic gastrectomy. However, whether total robotic gastrectomy is noninferior to robotic-assisted gastrectomy remains unclear. The investigator first carried out this study in the world to evaluate the efficacy of total robotic versus robotic assisted distal gastrectomy for GC.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Total Robotic Distal GastrectomyProcedure or surgery

    All the surgical procedures are performed using the robot system.

  • Robotic-Assisted Distal GastrectomyProcedure or surgery

    After finishing the lymphadenectomy, the digestive tract reconstruction is performed extracorporal.

What is being measured

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

  1. Morbidity rates

    This is for the early postoperative complication, which defined as the event observed within 30 days after surgery.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. 3-year disease free survival rate

    3-year disease free survival rate

    Measured: 36 months

  2. 3-year overall survival rate

    3-year overall survival rate

    Measured: 36 months

  3. 3-year recurrence pattern

    Recurrence patterns are classified into five categories at the time of first diagnosis: locoregional, hematogenous, peritoneal, distant lymph node, and mixed type.

    Measured: 36 months

  4. intraoperative morbidity rates

    The intraoperative postoperative morbidity rates are defined as the rates of event observed within operation.

    Measured: 1 day

  5. overall postoperative serious morbidity rates

    Refers to the incidence of early postoperative complication which is graded as Clavien-Dindo IIIA or higher

    Measured: 30 days

  6. Total Number of Retrieved Lymph Nodes

    Total Number of Retrieved Lymph Nodes

    Measured: 1 day

  7. postoperative recovery course

    Duration of postoperative hospital stay in days is used to assess the postoperative recovery course.

    Measured: 30 days

  8. postoperative nutritional status

    The variation of weight on postoperative 3, 6, 9 and 12 months are used to access the postoperative nutritional status.

    Measured: 3, 6, 9 and 12 months

  9. inflammatory immune response

    The variation of white blood cell count from peripheral blood before operation and on postoperative day 1, 3, 5 are recorded to access the inflammatory and immune response

    Measured: Preoperative 3 days and postoperative 1, 3, and 5 days

  10. Time of digestive tract reconstruction

    From the beginning to the end of digestive tract reconstruction

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Total Robotic Distal Gastrectomy and Robotic-Assisted Distal Gastrectomy in people with Gastric Cancer and Robotic Gastrectomy, run by Fujian Medical University 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 7 inclusion and 14 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2021. 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?

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 Chang-ming Huang, MD (+86-13805069676, hcmlr2002@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Morbidity rates (time frame: 30 days). 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 12 Mar 2021.
