Comparing Two Imaging Methods for Stomach Lesion Diagnosis
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial compares two special camera methods (pCLE and EB) used during endoscopy to better see and diagnose early stomach changes. It may help doctors decide the best treatment for precancerous spots or very early cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with a precancerous change (low or high grade) or very early stomach cancer from a biopsy.
- You are scheduled to have a minimally invasive procedure (ESD) to remove the lesion.
- You do not have advanced stomach cancer or a history of stomach removal.
- You do not have severe heart, lung, liver, kidney, or bleeding problems.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you are willing and able to have an endoscopy.

This study compares two ways to check stomach growths: a special microscope test called pCLE and a standard tissue sample test. It aims to see which one finds problems more accurately before surgery.
This study compares two approaches after a non-curative ESD for early stomach cancer: one that removes sentinel lymph nodes (the first nodes where cancer might spread) and one that does not. Participating may help find out if removing these nodes improves outcomes.
This trial tests a combination of two surgical techniques for early-stage stomach cancer. It aims to remove the tumor and check nearby lymph nodes more precisely, which may help guide treatment and reduce side effects.
This trial tests a new technique that uses a special dye to highlight the first lymph nodes where stomach cancer might spread, allowing surgeons to remove only the necessary nodes during surgery. The goal is to reduce side effects while still effectively treating the cancer.
This study tests an artificial intelligence tool that analyzes images taken during stomach endoscopy to help diagnose early-stage stomach cancer or precancerous changes. The goal is to improve how doctors identify and treat these lesions early, when treatment is most effective.
This trial tests a surgical technique that combines two types of minimally invasive procedures (laparoscopy and endoscopy) to find and remove the first lymph node that might contain cancer (called the sentinel lymph node) in people with early stomach cancer. The goal is to remove only the necessary lymph nodes, potentially reducing side effects while ensuring the cancer hasn't spread.
