About this study

Official title: Validation of Serum Pepsinogen II and Helicobacter Pylori Test in the Detection of Gastric Cancer in South Korea

The aim of this study to validate the role of pepsinogens in gastric cancer screening.

Read the detailed description

Serum pepsinogens (PGs) are the biomarkers for gastric cancer (GC), especially atrophic gastritis which is a precursor of intestinal type GC and severe gastric inflammation which is an indicator for diffuse type GC in young age. So, test for serum PGs can be used to identify high risk patients for GC. The aim of this study is to validate the role of PGs in GC screening.

Sera and the data from esophagogastroduodenoscopy and questionnaires are collected from study subjects, and PGs and anti-H. pylori (HP) antibody are measured. Area under the curve and receiver operating characteristic curve are calculated to identify the optimal cutoff values for PGs.

To validate the usefulness of PGs to predict risk of GC, the subjects are divided into two groups based on each cut-off value for each PG value. Adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs are calculated using multivariate logistic regression. Risk stratification is conducted by combining each PG value and anti-HP antibody in GC subtype.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastric Cancer, run by Seoul National University Bundang 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 1 inclusion and 6 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2024. 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. 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?

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 level of serum pepsinogens (time frame: At the time of enrollment). 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 Nov 2024.
