Filter by:Study objectives are to investigate the efficacy and safety of activated autologous dendritic cells (DCs) in treatment of gastric cancer. DCs are activated by the proteins from autologous tumor cell membrane and cytokines in vitro. The efficacy endpoints include objective response, immune-cell response, recurrent rate after a radical surgery, progression-free survival and overall survival, and the safety endpoints include adverse events, laboratory tests, ECG, ECOG-PT, etc.
Our study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of Chemotherapy Alone Versus D2 distal gastrectomy and metastasectomy plus Chemotherapy for gastric cancer (GC) with one non-curable Factor
Osteoporosis after gastrectomy, which is characterized by both the loss of bone mass and the deterioration of bone architecture, is a serious complication in the long course after gastrectomy. The aim of the present study was to evaluate osteoporosis by using high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) in the long course after gastrectomy. In total gastrectomy and distal gastrectomy groups, at least 5 years should have elapsed since gastrectomy.
Despite the theoretical superiority of robotic technology, surgical outcomes following robotic surgery have shown little benefit over conventional laparoscopic surgery. At present, studies have evaluated the value of robotic technology in clinical practice, including EndoWrist®, TilePro®, Firefly®, and Single-Site®, and have demonstrated the possibility of added clinical value, specifically in regards to decreased postoperative pancreatic fistula, usefulness as a multi-display education system, visualization of lymphatic channels, and implementation of reduced-port robotic gastrectomy. However, these technologies have only been applied independently and not in a well-organized manner. Maximizing radicality and safety while minimizing invasiveness are critical to bettering cancer surgery. We hypothesize that robot technology can affect these factors positively and that the use of appropriate parameters thereof could help shed more light on the benefits of a robotic system in gastric cancer surgery. 1. Radicality: added benefit of Firefly® for lymph node visualization Number of retrieved lymph nodes can be considered a surrogate marker of long-term survival. In our proposed study, we will focus on the number of retrieved (lymph nodes as the primary outcome. Additionally, bleeding, which is known to be associated with poor overall survival, will be measured as a secondary outcome. Three-year recurrence free survival and 5-year overall survival will be followed up. 2. Safety: benefit of Firefly® in differentiating lymph nodes from other organs and benefit of a magnified view and EndoWrist® Although robotic surgery reportedly shows less in-hospital and outpatient complication rates, a higher number of enrolled patients is needed to statistically validate these results. In the currently proposed study, these would be secondary outcomes. We have experienced the benefit of using fluorescence imaging to differentiate lymph node from biliary trees and pancreas parenchyma. As a reflection thereof, bleeding would be measured as parameter of unintended injury to a normal organ. To evaluate injury to pancreas parenchyma and postoperative pancreatic fistula, amylase/lipase levels in serum and drainage fluid will be measured. 3. Invasiveness: value of Single-Site® Serum CRP (C reactive protein) levels (day 0, day 3, day 5, and 4 weeks after surgery) and pain scores (at 6 hr, 12 hr, 24 hr, 48 hr, and 72 hr after surgery) will be measured to evaluate surgical trauma to the patients. Satisfaction on the wound will be evaluated using Korean version of the body image scale at one month after surgery.
Using random case assignment to investigate the analgesic and sedative effect of intravenous dexmedetomidine and dexmedetomidine as a local anesthetic adjuvant in ultrasound-guided subcostal TAP block in gastric cancer patient undergoing gastrectomy or partial gastrectomy.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether raltitrexed concurrent with IMRT is safe, tolerable and effective in the treatment for patients with local-advanced gastric cancer after D0/D1 radical resection.
This study is designed to investigate the incidence of pancreatic fistula after radical gastrectomy in gastric cancer patients.
Although Laparoscopic gastrectomy for both early and locally advanced gastric cancer has gained popularity, the use of laparoscopic total gastrectomy for proximal advanced gastric cancer is still limited to some experienced surgeons, because of its technical difficulties in D2 lymph node dissection and anastomoses. Some retrospective and cohort studies regarding laparoscopic total gastrectomy with lymph node dissection suggested the likelihood of application of laparoscopic surgery for proximal gastric cancer. However, there has been no randomized clinical trial comparing results of laparoscopic total gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection with open conventional surgery. Therefore, we aimed to verify the efficacy of laparoscopic total gastrectomy with D2(D2-10) lymph node dissection, technical and oncologic safety compared with open surgery via multicenter randomized clinical trial.
