Filter by:Since much is unknown about factors that lead to progression of the pre-neoplastic lesions and cancer. In addition, there is ongoing debate on the optimal surveillance intervals and techniques. To solve these important clinical questions, the establishment of a registry for a longitudinal study is planned.
This PMS is a non-interventional, prospective, single-arm, multi-center surveillance in accordance with Korean regulation, 'Standard for Re-Examination of New Drugs'. This PMS is to assess the safety and effectiveness after administrating Mucosta®SR Tab. Each subject would be observed for 2 weeks from baseline, if possible. As this PMS is an observational study in practical medical environment, the subject's follow-up is recommended but not obligatory and must be left up to the judgment of the investigator.
The primary objectives of this study are: - To identify clinical or histological factors associated with gastric cancer development in patients with IM and AG - To establish a machine learning algorithm for prediction of future gastric cancer risks and individual risk stratification in patient with IM and AG
All children from 1day to 18years of age, diagnosed with peptic ulcer disease due to H pylori at Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, Islamabad, from July 2020 to December 2021 will be included in the study. After informed written consent from parents/ guardians patients' bio data along with history and examination will be recorded on a proforma. They will be allocated into two groups, group A and group B randomly based on treatment regimen offered. Group A: Amoxicillin AMO + Clarithromycin CLA + Proton pump inhibitor PPI) Group B: Amoxicillin AMO+ Metronidazole MET+ Proton pump inhibitor PPI The history will include presenting symptoms along duration, remission of symptoms after therapy and clinical outcome will also be recorded.
The pathogenetic mechanisms of chronic gastritis and gastric carcinoma are different. Whether metabonomics play a role in the development of chronic gastritis and gastric cancer is still a question. So the investigators want to clarify this question by this subject.
Introduction: Gastric atrophy and intestinal metaplasia are the principal precursors for gastric cancer and, therefore, are considered gastric premalignant conditions. Although current guidelines recommend surveillance of individuals with these conditions, the best method for its identification and staging (histological vs endoscopy) and the best time schedule for follow-up are still controversial. Aims: To describe for the first-time patients with premalignant conditions both clinically (familial history), histologically (OLGA/OLGIM; complete/incomplete metaplasia) and endoscopically (EGGIM) using validated scales and to describe evolution of these parameters through time. To estimate prospectively the gastric cancer risk according to EGGIM stages. To define the best endoscopic surveillance follow-up for the several stages considering clinical, histological and endoscopic factors. Methods: Multicenter study involving different gastroenterology departments from several countries. Consecutive patients older than 45 years scheduled for upper endoscopy in each of these centers will be evaluated by High-Resolution- endoscopy with virtual chromoendoscopy and EGGIM will be calculated. Guided biopsies (if areas suspicious of IM) and/or random biopsies (if no areas suspicious of IM) in antrum and corpus will be made and OLGA/OLGIM stages calculated. Patients will be evaluated in clinical consultation and database will be fulfilled. All patients will be eradicated for Helicobacter pylori infection if positive. At that occasion, all the patients with EGGIM>5 and/or OLGA III/IV and/or OLGIM III/IV will be randomized for yearly (12 to 16 months) or every three years (32-40 months) endoscopic follow-up during a period of 6 years (SUPREME I). Endoscopic observational follow-up will be scheduled for patients with EGGIM 1-4 and OLGIM I/II at 3 and 6 years (SUPREME II). For individuals with no evidence of IM (EGGIM 0 and OLGIM 0, OLGA 0-II) a follow-up endoscopy 6 years after will be proposed (SUPREME III).
Gastric cancer afflicts 27,000 Americans annually and carries a dismal prognosis. One reason for poor outcomes is late diagnosis, as the majority of gastric cancers in the United States are diagnosed at a relatively advanced stage where curative resection is unlikely. Gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) is a precancerous change of the stomach which increases risk for subsequent gastric cancer multiple-fold. The Gastric Precancerous Conditions Study (GAPS) is an observational study with two over-arching objectives: 1) improve the non-invasive identification of patients with GIM, and 2) develop biological markers to predict the subset of GIM which will progress onto gastric cancer. To achieve Aim 1, a case-control study (N=300 pairs) matching cases of GIM with age-/gender-matched controls will be recruited form the population of subjects undergoing clinically-indicated endoscopy. Determination of gastric pathology will be made by two, independent gastrointestinal pathologists. At time of endoscopy, a detailed clinical questionnaire is administered by face-to-face interview. Saliva and blood is collected prior to endoscopy. At time of endoscopy, protocoled clinical biopsies (per Revised Sydney Protocol) as well as additional research specimens are collected. Scoring of GIM will be performed based on the Operative Link for GIM scoring system. To achieve Aim 2, patients with histologically-confirmed GIM (N=300) will be followed longitudinally. Biennial endoscopic surveillance will be performed, with repeat biopsies, specimen collection, and histologic scoring. Progression of GIM will be defined as upstaging of GIM score, or development of either dysplasia or carcinoma on any biopsy.
This is a multi-center prospective case control study aiming to compare different methods of risk stratification models in predicting the risk of gastric cancer development.
This study seeks to correlate microbiome sequencing data with information provided by patients and their medical records regarding Crohn's disease.
This study evaluates a range of endoscopic image enhancement techniques for assessing conditions involving the gastrointestinal tract. This study aims to determine: (i) the accuracy of different techniques to diagnose or grade severity of several gastrointestinal conditions (ii) if image-enhancement techniques could potentially replace investigations currently used in daily practice (e.g. biopsy) with a view to reduce costs and shorten the interval to initiate treatment
