Official title
A Prospective, Multicentral, Open-label, Randomized, Controlled Clinical Trial to Compare the Survival, Morbidity and Mortality of Laparoscopic and Open Total Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer
Overview
The aim of the present study is to demonstrated the the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic total gastrectomy comparing with open total gastrectomy.
Detailed description
Gastric cancer is most common cause of cancer-related deaths in the world. Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy has been demonstrated to be safe and effective compared with open distal gastrectomy. With an increase in incidences of proximal gastric cancer over the last decades, total gastrectomy has been prefered by surgeons, and laparoscopic total gastrectomy has become the alternative option. However, the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic total gastrectomy have yet to be proved completely.
Interventions
- Procedure Total Gastrectomy
The laparoscopic or open total gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy was performed according to the Japanese gastric cancer treatment guidelines.
Primary outcome measures
- 3 year-DFS [Time frame: 3 year]
Secondary outcome measures (2)
- 3 year-OS [Time frame: 3 year]
- morbidity and mortality rates [Time frame: 30 days following surgeries]
