Confocal Laser Microendoscopy (CellTouch) for the Diagnosis of Early Gastric Cancer: A Multicenter Clinical Study

November 22, 2023 updated by: Changhai Hospital
This study is A prospective, randomized, multicenter clinical trial: The study intends to include subjects suspected of early gastric cancer, including 378 subjects with neoplastic lesions and 200 subjects with non-neoplastic lesions. The subjects are divided into two groups by random envelopes, A and B, and the endoscopic diagnosis in different groups is performed in different order (including: White light endoscopy,CellTouch, Magnifying endoscopy with NBI(ME-NBI)). Finally, the gold standard of histopathology was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of CellTouch in the diagnosis of early gastric cancer.The study hypothesized that the sensitivity and specificity of CellTouch in the diagnosis of early gastric cancer could reach more than 90% and more than 95%.

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.

Detailed Description

Objectives:

1. Histopathology was used as the gold standard to evaluate the diagnostic performance of CellTouch in the diagnosis of early gastric cancer.

Secondary Objectives

  1. Using histopathology as the gold standard, the diagnostic performance of CellTouch and ME-NBI in the diagnosis of early gastric cancer was compared and analyzed.
  2. Histopathology was used as the gold standard to evaluate the diagnostic performance of CellTouch combined with ME-NBI and ME-NBI alone in the diagnosis of early gastric cancer.
  3. Histopathology was used as the gold standard to evaluate the diagnostic performance of CellTouch and ME-NBI in the differential diagnosis of low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia and high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia.

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

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

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
Histopathology was used as the diagnostic gold standard to evaluate the diagnostic performance of CellTouch in the diagnosis of early gastric cancer.
Time Frame: 30 min
The diagnostic properties of CellTouch include: sensitivity and specificity.
30 min

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.
