Helicobacter pylori a bacteria which causes infection in the stomach is the most important causative agent of inflammation of the stomach, and subsequent atrophic gastritis.\n\nThe difficulty with diagnosing patients with gastric cancer is that a lot of patients will suffer from heartburn and pain around the stomach, but very few of those will have gastric cancer. This makes it difficult for GPs to know who to refer for further testing as the current cancer referral criteria are very broad.\n\nTo reduce the need for invasive diagnostic methods such as endoscopy where a flexible tube with camera is inserted into the gullet and stomach via the mouth, a commercially available blood test (GastroPanel ®) designed to measure the levels of certain key stomach hormones to detect atrophic gastritis has been developed. It is extremely rare for gastric cancer to develop without there first being gastric atrophy.\n\nA real word study is needed assess the performance of this blood test in a group of patients referred via an urgent cancer pathway for endoscopy in the UK. Scoring systems have been created to help us triage referrals to endoscopy in those with difficulty swallowing, but no similar score is available for those presenting with other upper abdominal symptoms. By using this blood test as well as collecting patient information we hope to create an improved referral criteria for those needing investigation for gastric cancer.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '100 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'The study population will consist of those patients referred primarily from their general practice for a cancer pathway endoscopy at the study site.', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\nPatients referred for a 2 week wait cancer pathway endoscopy for the following indications Or Upper abdominal mass consistent with stomach cancer Or Stable upper gastrointestinal bleeding Or\n\nAged 55 and over with weight loss and any of the following:\n\n* Upper abdominal pain\n* Reflux\n* Dyspepsia\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Referrals for therapeutic OGD (e.g. polypectomy, feeding tube insertion)\n* Previous gastro-duodenal surgery,\n* Any co-morbidity that may impair ability to provide information or give valid consent (e.g. dementia, cerebral vascular disease)'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06305169', 'briefTitle': 'Measuring the Negative Predictive Value and Specificity of Serum Biomarkers in Gastric Cancer', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Sandwell & West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust'}, 'officialTitle': 'Measuring the Negative Predictive Value and Specificity of Serum Biomarkers in Gastric Cancer Along With Creating a Predictive Model for the Identification of Patients That Need Urgent Endoscopy', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '1.4'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Referrals to endoscopy via the 2 week wait cancer pathway for all indications other than dysphagia', 'description': 'This group will have their serum biomarkers measured by gastropanel a commercially available blood test, along with full blood count and complete a questionnaire.', 'interventionNames': ['Diagnostic Test: Gastropanel']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Gastropanel', 'type': 'DIAGNOSTIC_TEST', 'description': 'Gastropanel is a commercially available blood test which given serum levels of pepsinogen I and II and gastrin 17 along with helicobacter pylori infection status', 'armGroupLabels': ['Referrals to endoscopy via the 2 week wait cancer pathway for all indications other than dysphagia']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': 'B71 4HJ', 'city': 'Birmingham', 'state': 'West Midlands', 'country': 'United Kingdom', 'facility': 'Sandwell General Hospital', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 52.48142, 'lon': -1.89983}}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO', 'description': 'Anonymised aggregated data can be requested by other researchers'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Sandwell & West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Consultant Gastroenterologist', 'investigatorFullName': 'Nigel Trudgill', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Sandwell & West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust'}}}}
