Stomach Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of immunological heterogeneity of tumor microenvironment in the short-term outcome and long-term outcome of patients with gastric cancer.
Detailed description
A prospective cohort study will be performed to explore the effect of immunological heterogeneity of tumor microenvironment in the short-term outcome and long-term outcome of patients with gastric cancer. The evaluation parameters are perioperative clinical efficacy, postoperative complications, and 3-year survival and recurrence rates.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 3-year disease free survival rate | 36 months | 3-year disease free survival rate |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Morbidity rates | 30 days | This is for the incidence of early postoperative complications, which defined as the event observed within 30 days after surgery. |
| Mortality rates | 30 days | This is for the early mortality, which defined as the event observed within 30 days after surgery. |
| Total number of retrieved lymph nodes | One month after surgery | Total number of retrieved lymph nodes after surgery |
| Intraoperative morbidity rates | 1 day | The intraoperative postoperative morbidity rates are defined as the rates of event observed within operation. |
| The variation of white blood cell count | Preoperative 7 days and postoperative 1, 3, and 5 days | The values of white blood cell count from peripheral blood before operation and on postoperative day 1, 3, 5 are recorded to access the inflammatory and immune response. |
| The variation of hemoglobin | Preoperative 7 days and postoperative 1, 3, and 5 days | The values of hemoglobin in gram/liter from peripheral blood before operation and on postoperative day 1, 3, 5 are recorded to access the inflammatory and immune response. |
| 3-year overall survival rate | 36 months | 3-year overall survival rate |
| 3-year recurrence pattern | 36 months | Recurrence patterns are classified into four categories at the time of first diagnosis: locoregional, hematogenous, peritoneal, and mixed type |
| Time to first ambulation | 30 days | Time to first ambulation in days is used to assess the postoperative recovery course. |
| Time to first flatus | 30 days | Time to first flatus in days is used to assess the postoperative recovery course. |
| Time to first liquid diet | 30 days | Time to first liquid diet in days is used to assess the postoperative recovery course. |
| Time to first soft diet | 30 days | Time to first soft diet in days is used to assess the postoperative recovery course. |
| Duration of postoperative hospital stay | 30 days | Duration of postoperative hospital stay in days is used to assess the postoperative recovery course. |
| The variation of C-reactive protein | Preoperative 7 days and postoperative 1, 3, and 5 days | The values of C-reactive protein in milligram/liter from peripheral blood before operation and on postoperative day 1, 3, 5 are recorded to access the inflammatory and immune response |
