Mixed Gel of Hydrocortisone and Aluminium Phosphate Preventing Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection Postoperative Stenosis for Patients With Large Esophageal Carcinoma

January 18, 2021 updated by: Huang Yonghui, Peking University Third Hospital

Effectiveness Evaluation of Mixed Gel of Hydrocortisone and Aluminium Phosphate Preventing Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection Postoperative Stenosis for Patients With Early Esophageal Cancer Invading More Than 2/3 Esophageal Perimeter

Endoscopic submucosal dissection as the fastest growing endoscopic treatment technology in the past decade has been widely used in the treatment of early esophageal cancer and gastric cancer without local lymph node metastasis. The main complications of ESD treatment of early esophageal cancer are hemorrhage, perforation, postoperative esophageal stenosis, infection, etc. Postoperative esophageal stenosis is the most common and major complication after ESD treating patients with lesion involving more than 2/3 esophagus cycle. It is very important to prevent esophageal stricture after ESD. Glucocorticoid is gradually concerned by clinical research because it can inhibit local inflammatory response and reduce the formation of connective tissue in order to prevent postoperative stenosis. The specific usages include endoscopic injection of corticosteroids, oral corticosteroids and combination of them. The study shows that the incidence of esophageal stricture after using glucocorticoid can be reduced effectively. Currently, there is no uniform consensus on the use of glucocorticoids, such as specific drugs, dosage, course of treatment, route of administration. In particular, efficacy comparison of different routes of administration is laking. Studies have shown that endoscopic injection triamcinolone acetonide in some patients with intractable esophageal stricture is not very effective, but it can be treated with oral corticosteroids. Aluminium Phosphate Gel is a kind of neutral buffer. The main component aluminum phosphate can form a strong ion buffer system in acidic environment. The structure of its auxiliary components agar and pectin is similar to that of natural mucus. It forms a mucous layer in the esophagus to restore and protect the esophageal mucosa. Therefore, investigators assume the hydrocortisone sodium succinate aluminum phosphate mixed gel can be used for preventing postoperative ESD stenosis of patients with a large area of early esophageal cancer. This study will design a randomized controlled trial to compare the effect of oral hydrocortisone sodium succinate mixed Aluminium Phosphate Gel and local injection of triamcinolone acetonide plus oral prednisone for the prevention of ESD postoperative esophageal stricture in patients with a large area of early esophageal cancer.

Detailed Description

Endoscopic submucosal dissection as the fastest growing endoscopic treatment technology in the past decade has been widely used in the treatment of early esophageal cancer and gastric cancer without local lymph node metastasis. The main complications of ESD treatment of early esophageal cancer are hemorrhage, perforation, postoperative esophageal stenosis, infection, etc. Postoperative esophageal stenosis is the most common and major complication after ESD treating patients with lesion involving more than 2/3 esophagus cycle. It is very important to prevent esophageal stricture after ESD. Glucocorticoid is gradually concerned by clinical research because it can inhibit local inflammatory response and reduce the formation of connective tissue in order to prevent postoperative stenosis. The specific usages include endoscopic injection of corticosteroids, oral corticosteroids and combination of them. The study shows that the incidence of esophageal stricture after using glucocorticoid can be reduced effectively. Currently, there is no uniform consensus on the use of glucocorticoids, such as specific drugs, dosage, course of treatment, route of administration. In particular, efficacy comparison of different routes of administration is laking. Studies have shown that endoscopic injection triamcinolone acetonide in some patients with intractable esophageal stricture is not very effective, but it can be treated with oral corticosteroids. Aluminium Phosphate Gel is a kind of neutral buffer. The main component aluminum phosphate can form a strong ion buffer system in acidic environment. The structure of its auxiliary components agar and pectin is similar to that of natural mucus. It forms a mucous layer in the esophagus to restore and protect the esophageal mucosa. Therefore, investigators assume the hydrocortisone sodium succinate aluminum phosphate mixed gel can be used for preventing postoperative ESD stenosis of patients with a large area of early esophageal cancer. This study will design a randomized controlled trial to compare the effect of oral hydrocortisone sodium succinate mixed Aluminium Phosphate Gel and local injection of triamcinolone acetonide plus oral prednisone for the prevention of ESD postoperative esophageal stricture in patients with a large area of early esophageal cancer.

The investigators will recruit patients according to admission criteria and exclusion criteria. The patients will be randomly divided into oral hydrocortisone mixed Aluminium Phosphate gel group (experimental group) and local injection of triamcinolone acetonide plus oral prednisone group (control group). The test group begin to take hydrocortisone sodium succinate mixed with Aluminium Phosphate gel after 24 hours and gradually reduse the dose. The control group will get local injection of triamcinolone acetonide in wound during the operation, and begin to take oral prednisone after 24 hours and gradually reduse the dose. The main result is esophageal stenosis rate 3 months after ESD.

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.

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.
