Albumin infusion to reduce complications after gastric cancer surgery
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving albumin (a protein in the blood) during and after surgery can help prevent complications in people with stomach cancer. It is for those who have surgery to remove their tumor and have normal or near-normal blood albumin levels before surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old and have stomach cancer confirmed by biopsy.
- Your cancer is stage I to III (has not spread to distant organs) and you will have surgery to remove it.
- Your blood albumin level is 30 g/L or higher, and your nutritional risk score is low (NRS-2002 score ≤ 2).
- You are in generally good health (ASA class I-III, ECOG score 0-2) and have no serious heart, lung, liver, or kidney disease.
- You have not had chemotherapy or radiation before surgery, and you are not on long-term immunosuppressants or have HIV.
- You have no known allergy to albumin, and you do not need to have other organs removed during surgery.

This trial tests whether adding a protein called albumin to standard fluids given during surgery helps patients with advanced cancer in the abdomen (from the ovaries, uterus, or digestive system) recover better. You would receive either the usual fluids or fluids plus albumin during your operation.
This trial studies whether a program of exercise and liquid nutrition given through a tube (enteral nutrition) after surgery for stomach cancer can help people live longer. It may help you recover better and improve survival.
This study tests whether giving an iron infusion before surgery can improve outcomes for people with gastric cancer who are going to have their stomach removed. The goal is to see if it helps with recovery or reduces complications.
This study looks at proteins in your blood to find different types of stomach cancer. The goal is to match you with the best treatment before surgery, which may improve outcomes.
This trial tests whether giving albumin (a protein in the blood) along with standard fluids helps patients with septic shock after a surgical infection. The goal is to see if it improves recovery and survival compared to fluids alone.
This trial tests a new protein treatment made from rice to help patients recover from low blood protein levels that sometimes occur after liver surgery. The treatment may help your body heal better after the procedure.
