November 7, 2023 updated by: Il Ju Choi, National Cancer Center, Korea

Effect of Helicobacter Pylori Eradication on Glandular Atrophy and Metachronous Cancer in Patients Undergoing Endoscopic Mucosal Resection for Gastric Cancer

This study evaluates whether Helicobacter pylori eradication improves precancerous lesions including glandular atrophy and intestinal metaplasia as well as metachronous cancers or dysplasias after endoscopic mucosal resection for gastric cancer.

Detailed Description

Helicobacter pylori is a primary etiological agent leading to chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer. The organism is also associated with gastric cancer in epidemiological studies. However detailed mechanism of carcinogenesis remains unknown. Histolopathological studies indicate that chronic H. pylori infection progresses over decades through stages of chronic gastritis, atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia and cancer. Gastric atrophy and intestinal metaplasia are considered as precancerous lesions, but whether H. pylori eradication improves these lesions and prevents metachronous gastric cancer is controversial. And the issue has not been evaluated in gastric cancer patients. However, despite the conflicting evidences from two open labelled randomized controlled trials, current guidelines from various regions recommend H. pylori eradication treatment in patients who were treated for gastric cancer by surgically or endoscopically. Thus, it is important to evaluate whether H. pylori eradication can improve known precancerous lesion, i.e. glandular atrophy and intestinal metaplasia in gastric cancer patients. Such histological improvement can eventually reduce secondary gastric cancer development and provide evidence for current guidelines.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
