Feasibility Study of Sentinel Navigation Surgery in Early Gastric Cancer Using Fluorescence (SENORITA4)

July 31, 2023 updated by: Hong Man Yoon, National Cancer Center, Korea

Feasibility Study of Sentinel Navigation Surgery in Early Gastric Cancer Using Fluorescence (SENORITA4 Trial)

SENORITA 1 trial showed laparoscopic sentinel lymph node biopsy and stomach preserving surgery in early gastric cancer can increase the quality of life. (Ryu KW et al. JCO 2022) The radioactive isotope is difficult to use because of the hazard of radiation and shortage of materials. The aim of this study is to investigate whether laparoscopic sentinel lymph node biopsy and stomach-preserving surgery using only fluorescence is feasible.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Not yet recruiting

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

  1. Injection of Indocyanine Green (ICG)

    • Endoscopic injection of 0.25mg/ml of ICG on 4 sites around gastric cancer
    • Identification of sentinel basin using fluorescence laparoscopy
    • Laparoscopic sentinel basin dissection and identification of sentinel node at the back table

  2. Surgical considerations

    • Conventional gastrectomy is performed if positive sentinel nodes are diagnosed in the frozen section.
    • If micrometastasis or isolated tumor cells in sentinel basin lymph nodes were diagnosed in permanent pathology, re-operation of conventional gastrectomy is not performed.
    • However, re-operation of conventional gastrectomy should be performed in case of macrometastasis, deep and lateral margin positive, more than pT2 lesion in the permanent pathology.

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.

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.

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.

Experimental: Laparoscopic sentinel navigation surgery
compare the detection rate of sentinel lymph nodes to that of previous study (SENORITA1 trial)

If the frozen biopsy of sentinel lymph nodes are all negative using fluorescence, stomach-preserving surgery is performed

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

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.

Time Frame: 5 years
Survey for quality of life will be performed regularly for three years after surgery. Measurement tool is the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ) C30 and STO22. In EORTC QLQ C30, there are 1 global health status scale, 5 functional scales, and 9 symptom scales/items. EORTC QLQ STO22 includes 5 symptom scales and 4 single items. Each scale and item ranges 0 to 100. Higher score of global health status and functinoal scales indicate better quality of life and lower score of symptom scales indicates better quality of life. There is no summed score in these questionnaires.
