Multicenter Phase III Trial of Laparoscopic Sentinel Node Biopsy

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Laparoscopic sentinel lymph node biopsy and stomach preserving surgery in early gastric cancer is less invasive method which can increase quality of life. For last two years, multicenter quality control study (Phase II) has been performed in Korea and tolerable results were observed. Based on these results, multicenter phase III trial is required to validate the clinical role of laparoscopic sentinel lymph node biopsy.

Clinical Trial Description

The final analyses include the modified intention to treatment analysis (full analysis set) and Per Protocol analysis (including patients who underwent assigned surgery without agreement withdrawal). 1. Injection of tracer and sentinel basin dissection - Tracer: Tc 99m HSA (Human serum albumin, 2ml, 0.1mCi/ml) + ICG (indocyanine green, 2ml, 5mg/ml) - Endoscopic injection of tracer on 4 sites around gastric cancer - Identification of sentinel basin using laparoscopic probe (Neoprobe) - Laparoscopic sentinel basin dissection and identification of sentinel node at back table 2. Surgical considerations - If positive sentinel nodes were diagnosed in frozen section, conventional gastrectomy is performed. - If micrometastasis or isolate tumor cells in sentinel basin lymph nodes were diagnosed in the permanent pathology, re-operation of conventional gastrectomy is not performed. - However, re-operation of converntional gastrectomy should be performed in case of macrometastasis, deep and lateral margin positive, more than pT2 lesion in the permanent pathology. 3. H.pylori eradication - There was no clear evidence that H.pylori eradication reduced development of metachronous gastric cancer. H.pylori eradication was planned to perform according to physician's decision or patient's need. However, recently, the effect of H.pylori eradication in development of metachronous gastric cancer was published in NEJM (Choi et al. 2018). Therefore, from now on, H. pylori eradication will be recommended to enrolled patients with H.pylori. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
