Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient 18 years of age or older
  • Pathologically confirmed Gastric, Gastroesophageal Junction (GEJ) or Esophageal, adenocarcinoma at either MSKCC or a participating site (biopsy may be performed at other institutions but slides must be confirmed at MSKCC or a participating site, as is routine care at our institution)
  • Patient undergoing any resection requiring an anastomosis to the esophagus for curative intent. Including but not limited to esophagectomy or total gastrectomy.
  • Subject is willing to provide written informed consent
  • Subject is willing and able to comply with the follow-up regimen

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnant or lactating women
  • Intraoperative evidence of metastatic or locally-unresectable disease
  • Patients with known sensitivity or allergy to porcine materials.
  • Patients undergoing any resection requiring an anastomosis to the esophagus for palliative intent.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Surgical intervention
Patients will undergo standard resection and gastrointestinal anastomosis and will then have reinforcement of the anastomosis with MatriStem PSM. Patients undergoing esophagectomy, PG or TG will be evaluated with one routine postoperative contrast swallow study at post-operative day #4-10.
Device: MatriStem PSM
All esophageal anastomoses will be reinforced circumferentially with ACell MatriStem PSM.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Anastomotic Leak.
Time Frame: up to 10 days
Anastomotic leak will be assessed by clinical observation and one postoperative contrast study (thin-barium Gastrografin or Omnipaque swallow)
up to 10 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Stricture Formation Clinically and by Determination of Dysphagia Score
Time Frame: 90 days postoperatively
Patients will be evaluated in the outpatient clinic and will be assigned a dysphagia score from 0-4 by the RSA. Patients reporting symptoms consistent with stricture will be evaluated with radiographic contrast swallow study or endoscopy.
90 days postoperatively
Number of Participants Who Developed Anastomotic Stenosis
Time Frame: 90 days post op
If during the follow up period, patients report any symptoms suggestive of anastomotic stricture, a contrast study (esophagram) or endoscopy will be obtained at that time to evaluate for stricture. These tests will be performed as per standard postoperative assessment by the surgeon.
90 days post op
