Study Summary

This trial tests if robotic cytoreduction & HIPEC can improve survival & reduce complications in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-80 with gastric cancer that has spread only to the lining of their abdomen, responding well to chemotherapy, and in good nutritional health can join. They must have a certain level of blood cells, kidney function, and body weight. People with cancer outside the abdomen or severe reactions to chemo can't participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing robotic surgery combined with heated chemo delivered directly into the belly (HIPEC) for stomach cancer patients with limited spread. It aims to see if this approach reduces complications compared to traditional open surgery.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include typical surgical risks like infection and bleeding, as well as those from chemo such as nausea, fatigue, hair loss, nerve damage and increased risk of infections due to lowered immunity.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (gastrectomy, HIPEC)Experimental Treatment9 Interventions
Patients undergo collection of stool and blood sample before and after surgery. Patients also undergo robotic gastrectomy and HIPEC with docetaxel and cisplatin on study. Patients undergo CT, MRI, or PET/CT scans throughout the trial.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is this research endeavor accepting individuals beyond the age of 30?

"This medical trial is open to any individual aged 18 or older and below the age of 80."

Answered by AI

To whom does this medical experiment extend its invitation?

"To be eligible to participate, applicants must have a diagnosis of stomach cancer and fall within the age bracket of 18-80 years old. The trial is hoping to recruit 20 participants in total."

Answered by AI

What is the primary objective of this investigation?

"This experiment's key metric is the 30 day readmission rate over an approximate one year period. To complement this goal, two other measurements shall be assessed; Peritoneal recurrence free survival (via descriptive statistics and Kaplan-Meier estimation) and Open conversion rate (using descriptive stats). Lastly, a measure of Overall Survival will also be used to determine differences between groups through log-rank testing."

Answered by AI

What potential risks are associated with the gastrectomy and HIPEC treatments?

"The safety of this treatment (gastrectomy, HIPEC) was scored a 2 on our risk assessment scale since there is evidence for its security but no data confirming efficacy."

Answered by AI

Is there still room to join this research initiative?

"Confirmed. This clinical trial, which was originally advertised on February 28th 2023 and had its most recent update two days later, is no longer seeking patients. However, there are 3125 other medical studies actively enrolling individuals at the present time."
