Stool test for early signs of stomach cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a new stool (poop) sample test that looks for DNA changes and a bacteria called H. pylori. It may help find early warning signs of stomach cancer and could lead to a simpler way to check for risk.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a new way to screen for stomach cancer by looking for special DNA markers in your stool. It might help find cancer early without needing an endoscopy right away.
This trial looks at how gene changes called methylation can help doctors track how well treatment is working for gastric cancer. If you are newly diagnosed and have not had surgery or chemotherapy yet, you may be able to join.
This study looks for markers in the blood that could show if someone is at risk for stomach cancer or pre-cancerous changes. It aims to help catch problems earlier.
This study is looking for people with stomach discomfort who are coming to this hospital for an endoscopy. Researchers will use the test results to help catch stomach cancer early and keep an eye on it after surgery.
This trial is testing a new way to identify people at higher risk for stomach cancer using a gene test for Helicobacter pylori. It may help detect cancer early in people aged 40 and older.
This study tests whether a stool sample can help detect early signs of cancers in the stomach, colon, and related organs. Researchers will compare stool test results with findings from standard camera procedures to see if this non-invasive approach might catch cancer earlier.
