The Efficacy of Serum Pepsinogen for Prediction of Metachronous Gastric Neoplasm

February 10, 2016 updated by: Seong Woo Jeon, Kyungpook National University Hospital

Prediction for the Development of Metachronous Gastric Cancer After Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection by Serum Pepsinogen

After endoscopic resection of early gastric cancer (EGC), there remained concerned about the development of the metachronous gastric neoplasm (MGN). The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of H. pylori eradication for reducing MGN after ESD and the efficacy of serum pepsinogen (PG) for predicting development of MGN after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for EGC and to evaluate other risk factors for the incidence of MGN. The investigators enrolled the participants who were tested serum PG I and II at the time of ESD for EGC, from January 2007 to May 2013 in single tertiary center, retrospectively. The baseline characteristics of the participants, H. pylori status, and serum pepsinogen were analyzed for the development of the MGN.

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 85 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

Probability Sample

Study Population

This study was designed to enroll patients in our ESD data registry, prospectively. Finally, we analyzed the data retrospectively. We enrolled about more than 1000 patients in our ESD registry. For this cohort study, we enrolled about 800 patients for analysis.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • The patients who tested serum PG concentration test and H. pylori status at the time of ESD and revealed pathologically complete en bloc resection after ESD for EGC.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • previous history of ER; proven pathologically incomplete resection or lympho-vascular invasion on the resected ESD specimen; additional treatment after ESD; and follow-up loss less than 2 years.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Negative H. pylori group
The participants revealed negative findings of H pylori IgG and other invasive methods (rapid urease test or histology) at the time of ESD for EGC
Previous H. pylori infection group
The participants revealed positive findings of H pylori IgG and other invasive methods (rapid urease test or histology) at the time of ESD for EGC
Eradicated H. pylori group
The participants revealed to success for H. pylori eradication in those who were positive findings of H pylori IgG and other invasive methods (rapid urease test or histology) at the time of ESD for EGC
Drug: H pylori eradication
The regimen of H. pylori eradication was like that: 1-week conventional proton pump inhibitor (PPI) based triple therapy (lansoprazole 40 mg b.i.d., clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d., and amoxicillin 1 g b.i.d. for a week) after confirmation of H. pylori infection. If the participants who initially failed to respond to the first eradication, they recommended to underwent second-line eradication therapy with the regimen of 7-day bismuth containing quadruple regimen [lansoprazole 40 mg b.i.d., tripotassium dicitrate bismuthate (Denol; Greencross Co., Seoul, Korea) 300 mg q.i.d. (three tablets 30 min before meals and one tablet 2 hours after dinner), metronidazole 500 mg t.i.d., and tetracycline 500 mg q.i.d. for 1 week]
Persistent H. pylori group
The participants revealed to fail in H. pylori eradication in those who were positive findings of H pylori IgG and other invasive methods (rapid urease test or histology) at the time of ESD for EGC
Drug: H pylori eradication
The regimen of H. pylori eradication was like that: 1-week conventional proton pump inhibitor (PPI) based triple therapy (lansoprazole 40 mg b.i.d., clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d., and amoxicillin 1 g b.i.d. for a week) after confirmation of H. pylori infection.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To estimate the incidence (number of participants) of metachronous gastric neoplasm after ESD between H. pylori eradicated group and H. pylori persistent group
Time Frame: Up to 8 years after ESD for EGC
The investigators were estimated the number of participants who found metachronous gastric neoplasm after ESD for EGC during follow up endoscopic surveillance. Then, the investigator will evaluate the statitistical difference in the incidence of the development of metachornous gastric neoplasm between H. pylori eradicated group and H. pylori persistent group.
Up to 8 years after ESD for EGC

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To evaluate the incidence of metachronous gastric neoplasm after ESD based on diffferent cut off point of serum pepsinogen.
Time Frame: Up to 8 years after ESD for EGC
The investigators will evaluate the incidence of metachronous gastric neoplasm after ESD using several cut off level of serum pepsinogen: 30, 50 and 70 ng/mL for PG I and 3 for PG I/II ratio. The appropriate cut off level could be found for indicating the development of metachronous gastric neoplasm using serum PG
Up to 8 years after ESD for EGC
