Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patient with Gastrointestinal neoplasmPt referred for resection of gastrointestinal neoplasm. Observational data collected from endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), submucosal-tunnelling endoscopic resection (STER) or endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) of gastrointestinal neoplasm

What is being measured

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

  1. Effectiveness of endoscopic resection of UGI neoplastic lesions: completeness of resection

    Determined based on clear margins in histology review

    Measured: 2 weeks

  2. Safety: intra and post procedural; bleeding; perforation; anaesthetic

    Intraprocedural bleeding, clinically significant post-polypectomy bleeding, deep mural injury, post polypectomy coagulation syndrome

    Measured: 30 day

  3. Long term outcomes: recurrent and residual disease

    Determined at subsequent procedures

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Endoscopic sessions, procedure time (in minutes) and overall time (in weeks) needed to achieve the primary objectives

    Determined after follow up procedure to confirm no recurrence

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Need for more than one endoscopic therapy

    Determined after follow up procedures

    Measured: 3 years

  3. Need for surgery

    Determined after follow up procedures, histological review

    Measured: 2 months

  4. Post ESD, EFTR, STER defect features

    Determined after complete resection

    Measured: 1 day

  5. Patient interviews/questionnaires

    Determined after follow up procedures

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cancer of Stomach and Oesophageal Cancer, run by Western Sydney Local Health District at 1 site in Australia.

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 5 inclusion and 4 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 27 Mar 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 Australia. 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 Michael Bourke (02 8890 5555, michael@citywestgastro.com.au), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effectiveness of endoscopic resection of UGI neoplastic lesions: completeness of resection (time frame: 2 weeks). 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?
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 Mar 2025.
