Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to conduct a study on genetic pathology, obtaining of pure cancer tissues is mandatory. Although the endoscopy with biopsy has been a gold standard for diagnosing gastric cancer, percentage of cancer cells in biopsy samples is usually 30% or less. Recently, confocal laser endomicroscopy has been introduced for real-time histopathologic diagnosis in various cancers. In previous pilot study in our institution, pCLE-targeted biopsy provided superior results in terms of the proportion of cancer cells in biopsy samples compared to WLE-targeted biopsy, especially for gastric cancers with undifferentiated histology. However, there was a limitation because of small sample size. Therefore, the investigators aim to evaluate that biopsy using probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy for undifferentiated gastric cancer will increase the percentage of cancer cells and expression ratio of tumor marker in biopsy samples.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: pCLE group

The intervention group

Device: GastroFlex UHD, Cellvizio; Mauna Kea Technologies, Paris, France
The patients who enrolled the pCLE group will undergo endoscopic biopsy using pCLE. The cancerous lesion is observed using probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy. The biopsy was done at the most suspicious parts of the cancerous lesion.

Active Comparator: WLE group

The control group

Device: white light endoscopy (WLE)
The patients who enrolled this group will undergo endoscopic biopsy under standard white light endoscopy

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The percentage of cancer cells in biopsy samples [Day 3]

    The percentage of cancer cells in biopsy samples according to the method of endoscopic method, probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy versus white light endoscopy

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. The expression ratio of tumor marker in biopsy samples [Day 3]

    The expression ratio of tumor marker in biopsy samples according to the method of endoscopic method, probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy versus white light endoscopy
