NCT ID NCT02738294

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tested whether a special endoscopy technique called ME-NBI (magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging) can better diagnose early stomach cancer than the standard white light biopsy. Researchers looked at 211 patients with suspicious stomach lesions. They compared the accuracy of ME-NBI targeted biopsy against standard forceps biopsy, using final surgical specimens as the gold standard.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ME-NBI (magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging) device
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that ME-NBI targeted biopsy is more accurate than standard white light biopsy for diagnosing early gastric cancer, potentially reducing unnecessary biopsies.
What could go wrong
This is a completed study with 211 participants, so results are available but may not apply to all patients or settings. The technique requires specialized equipment and training.
