Official title: DESI- Düsseldorfer ESD Register Study

Safety and effectiveness of endoscopic submucosal dissection

Read the detailed description

Background and study objective The standard of care for premalignant and malignant mucosal lesions in the gastrointestinal track with limited submucosal invasion is an endoscopic resection. A curative resection of the neoplasia often necessitates an en-bloc resection, where the resection ends within healthy tissue (R0 resection). Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a highly sophisticated resection technique for lesions in the oesophagus, stomach, duodenum, colon and rectum. Multiple studies in Asia already established the safety and efficacy of ESD. In several spezialized centres in the western world the ESD already replaced the endoscopic mucosal resectiona (EMR) as standart of care. The en-bloc resection facilitates an exact histopathological evaluation, thus leading to lower recurrence rates. Besides specified mucosal lesions, there is an increase in the use of ESD to resect expansive and submucosal lesions. Specialised centres like Evangelisches Krankenhaus Düsseldorf have a high number of ESD cases and use ubiquitous in the gastrointestinal tract. Besides the many advantages over EMR there is still the risk of peri- and postinterventional complications with ESD due to the highly demanding technique and the longer procedure duration. This is why patient selection is crucial factor (in this study). To evaluate the safety and efficacy of ESD more prospective data analysis in western centres are necessary. This data will be useful to develop new approaches to improve the method concerning safety and efficacy and patient selection.

What is being measured

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

  1. Technical success rate

    TSR, defined as rate of procedures with endoscopic en-bloc resection

    Measured: during the procedure

  2. Complication rate

    Serious complications, (according to AGREE criteria), intraprocedural or late onset

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 5 years

  3. Histopahological result

    Histopathological result of R0 resection (margins are clean, vertical and lateral)

    Measured: up to 14 days after Procedure

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Complete resection rate (endoscopic)

    Measured: up to 14 days after Procedure till histopathological results

  2. Clinical success rate (curative resection according to standard of care guidelines)

    Measured: up to 14 days after Procedure till histopathological results

  3. Enhances clinical success rate (no curative resection according to standard of care guidelines, but no further treatment necessary (after individual discussion of cases in tumorboard)

    Measured: about 4 weeks after the ESD

  4. Complication rate (total)

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  5. Contributing factors on the technical and clinical success rate originating with patient and investigator aspects

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  6. Dissection speed and rate of complications with different ESD devices

    Measured: during the procedure / 1 day

  7. Recurrence rate after 3, 6, 12, 24 and 60 months (if available)

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 5 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Oesophageal Tumour and Gastric Tumours, run by Torsten Beyna at 1 site in Germany.

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 1 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 May 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 Germany. 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?

Technical success rate (time frame: during the procedure). 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 28 May 2025.
