H. pylori and stomach growth features study
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at whether having H. pylori infection (a common stomach bacteria) and certain features of stomach growth can predict how early stomach cancer or pre-cancerous changes will behave and what your long-term outlook might be. You may be eligible if you are being treated with a camera-based removal procedure called endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD).
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have early stomach cancer, high-grade pre-cancerous changes, or a certain type of stomach growth that can be removed with an endoscope (camera through the mouth).
- You have or can get tests for H. pylori (a common bacteria in the stomach) and results from biopsies of your stomach tissue.
- Your medical records include key details about your stomach growth, such as its location, size, and whether it has spread.
- If you join the study in the future, you must be healthy enough for the endoscope procedure and willing to come back for follow-up check-ups over several years.

This study follows people with an H. pylori stomach infection over the long term after treatment to see how it changes stomach findings. It may help doctors understand whether eradicating the infection improves stomach health and prevents worsening over time.
This study looks at where H. pylori bacteria are found in the stomach. If you have tested positive for H. pylori through a stomach biopsy and haven't had stomach surgery or serious health issues, you may be able to join.
This trial compares the types of bacteria in the stomach of people infected with different strains of H. pylori (CagA positive vs. negative). It may help researchers understand how these bacteria affect health.
This study follows adults with past or current H. pylori infection to better understand stomach lining changes such as atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia, and to monitor for possible progression. It may help by improving how doctors track risk over time and use stored tissue samples to learn more.
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 uses high-definition endoscopy to look at early changes in the stomach lining that might lead to cancer. It aims to better understand these changes in people having a routine upper endoscopy for stomach-related symptoms.
