Official title
Randomized Controlled Trials on Clinical Outcomes of Total Robotic Versus Robotic Assisted Distal Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer
Overview
To evaluate the clinical efficacy (safety, feasibility and long-term efficacy) of total robotic versus robotic assisted distal gastrectomy for patients with gastric cancer (cT1-4a, N0/+, M0).
Detailed description
In the field of gastrectomy, Hashizume et al. first reported robotic gastrectomy in 2002. Since then, reports on the safety and feasibility of the application of robotic surgical system in the treatment of gastric cancer (GC) have gradually increased. Reports of robotic surgery for GC are increasing, especially in Asia. Several studies confirmed the advantages of robotic gastrectomy when compared with laparoscopic gastrectomy. However, whether total robotic gastrectomy is noninferior to robotic-assisted gastrectomy remains unclear. The investigator first carried out this study in the world to evaluate the efficacy of total robotic versus robotic assisted distal gastrectomy for GC.
Interventions
- Procedure Total Robotic Distal Gastrectomy
All the surgical procedures are performed using the robot system. - Procedure Robotic-Assisted Distal Gastrectomy
After finishing the lymphadenectomy, the digestive tract reconstruction is performed extracorporal.
Primary outcome measures
- Morbidity rates [Time frame: 30 days]
Secondary outcome measures (10)
- 3-year disease free survival rate [Time frame: 36 months]
- 3-year overall survival rate [Time frame: 36 months]
- 3-year recurrence pattern [Time frame: 36 months]
- intraoperative morbidity rates [Time frame: 1 day]
- overall postoperative serious morbidity rates [Time frame: 30 days]
- Total Number of Retrieved Lymph Nodes [Time frame: 1 day]
- postoperative recovery course [Time frame: 30 days]
- postoperative nutritional status [Time frame: 3, 6, 9 and 12 months]
- inflammatory immune response [Time frame: Preoperative 3 days and postoperative 1, 3, and 5 days]
- Time of digestive tract reconstruction [Time frame: 1 day]
