D2 Versus D1 Gastrectomy of Operable Gastric Cancer

June 10, 2020 updated by: Mohamed El Messiry, Alexandria University

Operative and Long Term Oncological Outcomes After D2 Versus D1 Gastrectomy of Operable Gastric Cancer

Surgery is the mainstay treatment of operable gastric carcinoma but the optimal extent of lymph node (LN) dissection is controversial. The aim of this observational study is to assess the outcomes after curative D2 compared to D1 gastrectomy of operable gastric carcinoma regarding operative and long term oncological outcomes.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

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.

Detailed Description

This observational study included 80 consecutive patients presented by operable gastric cancer treated by D2 gastrectomy at Alexandria University hospital between January 2010 and January 2016, (Group I). Another 68 consecutive patients presented by operable gastric cancer treated by D1 gastrectomy earlier during the same period were included as a control (Group II). All patients had undergone preoperative gastroscopy and biopsy, chest and abdomen computed tomography (CT). All surgeries were performed by surgeons experienced in both D1 and D2 dissection and a standardized protocol for D1 and D2 gastrectomy was followed in all patients. The type of gastrectomy (distal or total) was done according to the site of the tumor; distal gastrectomy was done if there is a free safety margin of 4 cm beyond the proximal resection line otherwise total gastrectomy was done. Resection of the spleen and/or pancreatic tail were done if directly invaded by the primary tumor or metastatic LN. Patients with p T2 or greater, or with positive LN received adjuvant chemotherapy. Follow up was done as outpatient visits for average 5 years. Both groups were compared regarding postoperative morbidity and mortality, disease recurrence and survival rates.

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Postoperative morbidity rate
Time Frame: 30 days after surgery
Frequency of early postoperative complications
30 days after surgery
Operative mortality rate

Frequency of early postoperative mortality
30 days after surgery

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.

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
