Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Gastroenterostomy for Malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Malignant gastric outlet obstruction is a very disabling complication of patients with gastric, duodenal, ampullary, pancreatic, or bile duct cancer and worsens their prognosis. Current treatments have reported a similar complication rate and higher mortality in surgically treated patients. Recently, the creation of endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS) has shown promising results in these patients. The aim of this research is to determine the safety and efficacy of EUS-guided gastro-enterostomy in the treatment of patients with malignant gastric outlet obstruction.

Detailed Description
Malignant gastric outlet obstruction is a very disabling complication that occurs in 15% to 25% of patients with gastric, duodenal, ampullary, pancreatic, or bile duct cancer and worsens their prognosis. Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy is considered the gold standard treatment with technical success of 98.6% (97-3% -99.9%) and clinical success of 80.1% with patency of 169.2 (136.8-201.7) days. On the other hand, the technical success reported for self-expanding metal stents is 96.2% (94.1% vs. 98.4%), technical success is 79.4%, and patency at 6 months was only 57%. However, complications occur in a similar way in both forms of treatment (major complications in 6% and late complications in 17% in both, but mortality is higher in the group treated with Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy (29% vs. 17%). , p <0.001) Recently, the creation of endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy has shown success rates of over 90% in case series, but prospective studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of the procedure are lacking. The aim of this research to determine the safety and efficacy of EUS-guided gastro-enterostomy in the treatment of patients with malignant gastric outlet obstruction.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: EUS-guided gastroenterostomy in malignant gastric outlet obstruction The patients with malignant gastric outlet obstruction will be confirmed as follows: Histopathological report of cancer, thoracoabdominal tomography and impaired tolerance to oral feeding (tolerance to liquids only or null). |
Procedure: EUS-guided gastroenterostomy
First after an upper endoscopy is performed, a catheters passed throughout the endoscope channel and with x-ray verification, a guide wire is passed up to the third portion of duodenal loop. then small intestinal is filled with saline solution up to 1500cc and contrast solution. Then an endoscopic ultrasound examination will be carried out where a loop of the small intestine that is located less than 2 cm apart from the gastric wall will be looked for. Once the intestinal loop is identified a direct antegrade puncture will be performed with a luminal apposition prosthesis release system . Finally, correct position is verified with x-ray and we will look for any misplacement or leakage during this process or the presence of bleeding. Endoscopic treatment will be performed if necessary. Subsequently, the participants will go to monthly follow-up with clinical evaluation, laboratory and radiological test will be carried out until the participants dies.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of immediate adverse events in patients with gastric outflow tract obstruction treated by EUS-guided gastro-enterostomy. [Adverse events will be recorded during the first 24 hours of the procedure]
To evaluate the proportion of patients that presents with bleeding , prostheses misplacement or perforation.
- Incidence of early-term adverse events in patients with gastric outflow tract obstruction treated by EUS-guided gastro-enterostomy. [Adverse events will be recorded after the first day up to 30 days of the procedure]
we will record the proportion of patients that presents with migration, clogging, stenosis at gastro-enterostomy site or leakage.
- Incidence of mid-term adverse events in patients with gastric outflow tract obstruction treated by EUS-guided gastro-enterostomy. [Adverse events will be recorded from the first month up to the third month after procedure]
we will record the proportion of patients that presents with migration, clogging, stenosis at gastro-enterostomy site or leakage.
- Incidence of long-term adverse events in patients with gastric outflow tract obstruction treated by EUS-guided gastro-enterostomy. [Adverse events will be recorded after the third month of the stent placement up to study completion, an average of 6 months]
we will record the proportion of patients that presents with migration, clogging, stenosis at gastro-enterostomy site or leakage.
- Incidence of the correct stent placement for endoscopic ultrasound gastro-enterostomy anastomosis creation at the desired loop [During each procedure correct stent placement will be assessed]
Technical success: We will determine the ability to place the stents in the desired loop and in a correct position.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Improvement in tolerance to oral feeding assessed by the gastric outlet obstruction scoring system (GOOSS) in patients with gastric outflow tract obstruction treated by EUS-guided gastro-enterostomy [Immediately after the intervention/procedure/surgery and every month through study completion, an average of 6 months]
Clinical success: Defined as an increase in tolerance to oral feeding, assessed by GOOSS: 0 = no/inadequate oral intake, 1 = liquids/thickened liquids, 2 = semisolids/low residue diet, 3 = unmodified diet. A higher score means a better outcome.
- Changes in quality of life assessed by the self-report health-related quality of life questionnaire in patients with gastric outflow tract obstruction treated by EUS-guided gastro-enterostomy. [Baseline and every month after the intervention/procedure/surgery through study completion, an average of 6 months.]
Quality of life will be measured with the short form survey (SF-36 questionnaire). It consists of physical and mental component scores ranging from 0 to 100; a higher scores means a better outcome, a score of zero is equivalent to maximum disability and a score of 100 is equivalent to no disability.
- Changes of functional impairment assessed by Karnofsky Performance Scale Index in patients with gastric outflow tract obstruction treated by EUS-guided gastro-enterostomy. [Baseline and every month after the intervention/procedure/surgery through study completion, an average of 6 months.]
The Karnofsky Performance Scale Index allows patients to be classified as to their functional impairment. The lower scores means worst prognosis: 100-80 means that the patient is able to perform normal activities; 70-50 points means that the patient is unable to work; able to live at home and care for most personal needs, and 40-0 points means that the patient is unable to care for self; requires equivalent of hospital care and disease may be progressing rapidly.
- Changes in functional status with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance scale in patients with gastric outflow tract obstruction treated by EUS-guided gastro-enterostomy. [Baseline and every month after the intervention/procedure/surgery through study completion, an average of 6 months.]
The ECOG Scale of performance status describes patients functionality. Lower points means best outcomes.0: fully active. 1: Restricted in some physical activities. 2: Capable of all self-care but unable to carry our any work activities, more than 50% of walking hours. 3: limited self-care, confined to bed or chair more tan 50% of walking hours. 4: Completely disabled. Totally confined to bed or chair. 5: Dead.
