Anti-Mesothelin TNaive/SCM hYP218 (TNhYP218) CAR T Cells in Participants With Mesothelin-Expressing Solid Tumors Including Mesothelioma

Background: Mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer that grows in the linings of the body; this can include the membranes that line the heart, lungs, and internal organs. Mesothelin (MSLN) is a protein that appears in high numbers in many tumors, including mesothelioma. Researchers are developing a new treatment that collects a person s own immune cells (T cells); the T cells are genetically modified to target and kill tumor cells with high levels of MSLN. Objective: To test a new treatment (TNhYP218 CAR T cells) in people with solid tumors including mesothelioma. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older with solid tumors including mesothelioma that returned or spread after standard treatment. Design: Participants will be screened. A small piece of tissue will be cut from a tumor (biopsy). The sample will be tested to see if it has enough MSLN. Participants will undergo leukapheresis: Blood will be taken from their body through a vein. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the T cells. The remaining blood will be returned to the body through a different vein. Participant s T cells will be modified in a lab to produce TNhYP218 CAR T cells. Participants will enter the hospital. For 7 days, they will receive drugs to prepare their bodies for the study treatment. TNhYP218 CAR T cells will be administered into a vein. Participants will remain in the hospital for at least 7 more days. After discharge, participants will have follow-up visits for 5 years. These visits may include imaging scans, blood and heart tests, and a new biopsy. Long-term follow-up will continue another 10 years....

Tissue Procurement and Natural History Study of Patients With Malignant Mesothelioma

Background: * Malignant mesothelioma is a malignancy arising from the mesothelial cells of the pleura, peritoneum, pericardium, or tunica vaginalis. * Mesothelioma accounts for 0.10% of deaths annually in the United States. Malignant pleural mesothelioma is the most common of these, comprising of 80% of the cases with an annual incidence of about 2,500 in the United States. * The median survival from diagnosis of pleural mesothelioma is approximately 12 months. The majority of patients present with stage III or IV disease with 85-90% of patients considered unresectable at diagnosis. * Peritoneal mesothelioma has a better prognosis than pleural mesothelioma; nevertheless, patients undergoing therapy for peritoneal mesothelioma have few well-studied treatment options due in large part to the rarity of the disease. * In addition to mesothelioma, mesothelin is highly expressed in several cancers, including pancreatic, biliary adenocarcinomas, gastric and ovarian cancers; mesothelin is also expressed in a significantly larger proportion of thymic carcinoma than thymoma. Objectives: -To allow sample acquisition for use in the study of mesothelioma. Eligibility: * All participants age greater than or equal to 2 years with malignant mesothelioma OR * All participants greater than or equal to 18 years with thymic carcinoma, pancreatic or biliary adenocarcinoma or lung, gastric or ovarian cancers or other solid tumor known to express mesothelin * Must be able and willing to provide informed consent if 18 or over; parent or guardian must be able and willing to provide consent for patients under the age of 18 Design: * Up to 1000 subjects will be enrolled. * Patients will be followed to determine the course of disease and to record any treatment received for mesothelioma. * Patients will undergo sampling of blood, urine, tumor and abnormal body fluids for tissue banking. * Studies which may be performed on banked material include genetic and genomic studies, establishment of cell cultures and immunologic studies.

TEAS Timing for Gastrectomy Recovery (TEAS-TIME Trial)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) works to help people recover faster after laparoscopic surgery for stomach cancer. TEAS is a treatment that uses small electrical pulses through sticky pads on the skin. It does not use needles. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does TEAS help people pass gas (a sign that the digestive system is waking up) sooner after surgery? Does TEAS help lower pain after surgery? Does TEAS reduce the need for extra pain medication after surgery? Researchers will compare three groups to see if TEAS works better when given before, during, and after surgery compared with only after surgery. Group 1 receives TEAS before, during, and after surgery. Group 2 receives a sham (inactive) treatment before and during surgery, and real TEAS after surgery. Group 3 receives sham treatment at all time points. All participants will receive the same standard pain relief and recovery care after surgery. Participants will: Be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to one of the three groups Receive TEAS or sham treatment for 30 minutes before surgery, during surgery, and for 30 minutes each day on the first 3 days after surgery Rate their pain on a 0-10 scale at 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours after surgery Complete quality-of-life questionnaires before surgery, on day 4 after surgery, and 30 days after surgery Have a follow-up visit or phone call 30 days after leaving the hospital This study includes 300 adults aged 18 to 80 years who are scheduled to have laparoscopic surgery for stomach cancer at 13 hospitals in Shandong Province, China.

Pathological Response to Perioperative FLOT in Gastric Adenocarcinoma

Perioperative chemotherapy with the FLOT regimen (5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin and docetaxel) is a standard treatment for resectable gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. However, real-world studies have reported lower pathological complete response rates than the pivotal trials, and Colombian evidence is limited, coming mainly from surgical series focused on operative outcomes. This descriptive retrospective study will review the medical records of adults with stage I to III gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who started perioperative FLOT at Fundación Santa Fe de Bogotá (Bogotá, Colombia) between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2025 (approximately 90 patients). It will describe pathological response (tumor regression grade by the Mandard system and pathological complete response), grade 3-4 toxicity, dose modifications, treatment adherence and completion, recurrence and overall survival. The investigators will not assign or modify any treatment, and no hypothesis testing will be performed.

Maintenance Therapy in Metastatic Gastric Cancer: A Multicenter Retrospective Study in Colombia

Metastatic gastric cancer has a poor prognosis, and the cumulative toxicity of first-line platinum and fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy limits how long treatment can be continued. Maintenance therapy, in which patients whose disease is at least stable after induction chemotherapy continue on a less toxic regimen, is increasingly used, most often with fluoropyrimidines (capecitabine, 5-fluorouracil or S-1) and, in selected molecular subgroups, with immunotherapy or targeted therapy. Evidence on the outcomes of these strategies in Latin American patients is scarce. This multicenter retrospective study will review the medical records of adults with metastatic gastric cancer treated between 2013 and 2023 at four high-complexity cancer centers in Bogotá, Colombia, who received maintenance therapy after achieving at least stable disease with induction chemotherapy. The study will describe the demographic, clinical, pathological and molecular characteristics of these patients and estimate overall survival, progression-free survival, treatment response, toxicity and mortality. The investigators will not assign or modify any treatment.

A Phase II Study of Irinotecan Liposome Plus Fruquintinib and Sintilimab in Second-Line PD-L1-Positive Advanced Gastric Cancer

English Translation (for ClinicalTrials.gov Patient-Friendly Summary): This is a Phase II clinical trial for patients with advanced gastric cancer (stomach cancer). We are looking for participants whose cancer has progressed after one prior standard chemotherapy regimen and whose tumors test positive for the PD-L1 protein. This study is testing the effectiveness of a combination of three medications: 1. Irinotecan liposome: A chemotherapy drug wrapped in tiny fat particles (liposomes) to target tumors more precisely and minimize damage to healthy tissues. 2. Fruquintinib: An anti-angiogenic medication that blocks the growth of new blood vessels feeding the tumor, cutting off its nutrient supply. 3. Sintilimab: An immune checkpoint inhibitor that helps the body's own immune system recognize and attack cancer cells. The primary goal of this study is to evaluate how well this three-drug combination works and to monitor its safety. Participants will receive the study drugs via intravenous infusion or oral tablets according to the protocol. Their progress will be tracked with CT scans and blood tests every three months. Regular follow-up visits will continue even after stopping treatment to monitor long-term outcomes. Who can participate? Participants must be adults diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer who have progressed after only one prior first-line standard therapy, have PD-L1-positive tumors, and have no severe heart, liver, or kidney disease. Pregnant or breastfeeding women cannot participate. Possible side effects Potential side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, hand-foot swelling, low blood cell counts (which can increase infection risk), and fatigue. The research team will closely monitor all participants and provide prompt treatment for any side effects. Important note This study is still in the clinical trial phase. While it offers a potential new treatment option beyond standard care, there is no guarantee that the drugs will be effective for every participant. For more information, please contact the research team.

A Preregistered Multi-Cohort Evaluation of the FATHOM AI System for Molecular Testing Prioritization to Support Clinical Trial Enrollment

Many clinical trials evaluating cancer treatments require patients to undergo testing for specific molecular markers as part of eligibility screening, typically using immunohistochemistry or sequencing. Because relatively few patients may carry a required marker, trial investigators often test large numbers of patients to identify the few who may ultimately qualify for enrollment. Pathology laboratories routinely produce hematoxylin-and-eosin (H\&E) slides during cancer diagnosis. Pathology foundation models-large neural networks pretrained on millions of histology images-have shown promise in predicting molecular characteristics from these slides. Researchers can use these models to build classifiers that predict specific molecular markers and prioritize patients for confirmatory testing. This study evaluates FATHOM (Facilitating Accrual through Tumor Histology and Omics Matching), an autonomous research system powered by large multimodal models. Its agents read registered clinical trial records, identify molecular markers used as enrollment criteria, build prediction models using pathology foundation models, select the individual models or model combinations that best meet prespecified criteria, set their decision thresholds, and determine whether to deploy them. Together, a prediction model, its decision threshold, and the decision to deploy it constitute an AI prediction policy. Before FATHOM runs, the investigators preregister the clinical trial records that its agents may read, the cutoff date that defines which trial information they may use, the rules governing the agents, and the analysis plan. The system timestamps and locks each policy immediately after an agent produces it. The investigators then apply the policies to archived patient slides and compare their predictions with existing molecular marker results. The primary outcome is the proportion of prespecified evaluation scenarios in which an agent-generated policy, compared with universal molecular testing, either enriches the population selected for confirmatory testing with marker-positive patients or safely spares patients from confirmatory testing while meeting prespecified performance criteria. This study analyzes existing pathology images and clinical trial records only. It does not enroll or contact patients, influence patient care, or affect participation in any clinical trial.

Malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction Study With Stomach Partitioning (GO-PART)

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether stomach-partitioning gastrojejunostomy (SPGJ) more effectively reduces postoperative delayed gastric emptying (DGE) compared to conventional gastrojejunostomy (CGJ) in patients with unresectable stage IV gastric cancer accompanied by malignant gastric outlet obstruction (MGOO). This multicenter randomized trial aims to establish a new surgical standard that enhances recovery and quality of life in advanced gastric cancer. The main questions are: 1. Does SPGJ significantly decrease DGE compared with CGJ? 2. Does SPGJ enable faster food tolerance, shorter hospital stay, and earlier chemotherapy? Researchers will compare two arms - SPGJ and CGJ - to determine differences in postoperative gastric emptying, hospital course, complications, and survival outcomes. Participants Eligible participants are adults aged 20-85 years with histologically proven unresectable gastric adenocarcinoma limited to the lower third of the stomach and endoscopic or radiologic evidence of obstruction. Patients with total bowel obstruction, middle-third tumor extension, emergency conditions, or severe malnutrition (albumin \< 2.5 g/L) are excluded. Interventions * CGJ arm: Standard laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy using a 60 mm stapler without partitioning. * SPGJ arm: Laparoscopic transverse gastric partitioning 5 cm proximal to the tumor with a 2 cm bridge at the lesser curvature, followed by stapled gastrojejunostomy. All operations follow standardized training videos and pretrial workshops to ensure consistency across 32 Korean university hospitals. Study Design This is a prospective, randomized controlled multicenter trial (KLASS 16). After intraoperative diagnostic laparoscopy confirms eligibility, participants are randomized by a secure web-based block system stratified by hospital. A total of 144 patients (72 per arm) will be enrolled, ensuring 90% statistical power based on expected DGE rates (CGJ 34.6% vs SPGJ 3.8%). Endpoints * Primary endpoint: Incidence of DGE within 30 days (ISGPS criteria). * Secondary endpoints: Day of oral tolerance (GOO score ≥ 2), hospital stay, Clavien-Dindo ≥ II complications, mechanical obstruction recurrence, 6 and 12 month overall survival, and quality of life. Data Collection and Analysis Data will include postoperative nutrition recovery, complication grades, and survival follow-up. Analyses will utilize Chi square or Fisher's exact test for DGE rates and Kaplan-Meier with log rank testing for survival. Logistic regression will identify DGE risk factors. Duration Total 3 years: 6 months preparation, 1 year enrollment, 1 year follow up, and 6 months for data analysis and reporting. Expected Outcomes SPGJ is expected to reduce DGE by \> 70%, shorten hospital stay by \~3 days, and enable earlier chemotherapy, thereby improving palliative care outcomes and overall patient quality of life. The KLASS 16 trial will provide the first multicenter, Level I evidence to determine whether SPGJ should replace CGJ as the standard palliative procedure for MGOO.

Methylation Profile Test (Methylscape) in Body Fluids for Multi-Cancer Detection and Monitoring in Colombia

DNA methylation changes occur early and broadly during carcinogenesis. Methylscape is a rapid assay that detects global DNA methylation patterns in body fluids (blood, urine, and saliva) and may detect a cancer signal and predict the cancer signal origin (CSO) from a single fluid sample, using the differential interaction between methylated and unmethylated DNA and gold nanoparticles. This prospective observational study evaluates the diagnostic performance (sensitivity and specificity) of the Methylscape test in Colombian patients with various biopsy-confirmed solid tumors compared with age- and sex-matched cancer-free (healthy) volunteers. The study is conducted in three parts: Phase 1 validates the assay in 250 patients with cancer; Sub-study 2a compares 1,500 patients with cancer against 1,500 matched cancer-free volunteers; and Sub-study 2b uses serial blood and urine sampling in 300 patients with early-stage disease to assess detection of disease relapse during follow-up, in parallel with standard imaging. The study also estimates positive and negative predictive values (PPV/NPV) and projects the budget impact and cost-effectiveness of Methylscape as a multi-cancer early detection (MCED) tool in an upper-middle-income Latin American setting.

A Study of SGN-CEACAM5C in Adults With Advanced Solid Tumors

This clinical trial is studying advanced solid tumors. Solid tumors are cancers that start in a part of your body like your lungs or liver instead of your blood. Once tumors have grown bigger in one place but haven't spread, they're called locally advanced. If your cancer has spread to other parts of your body, it's called metastatic. When a cancer has gotten so big it can't easily be removed or has spread to other parts of the body, it is called unresectable. These types of cancer are harder to treat. Participants in this study must have cancer that has come back or did not get better with treatment. Participants must have a solid tumor cancer that can't be treated with standard of care drugs. This clinical trial uses an experimental drug called PF-08046050. PF-08046050 is a type of antibody-drug conjugate or ADC. ADCs are designed to stick to cancer cells and kill them. They may also stick to some normal cells. This study will test the safety of PF-08046050 in participants with solid tumors that are hard to treat or have spread throughout the body. This study has 5 different study parts. Part A and Part B of the study will find out how much PF-08046050 should be given to participants. Part C will use the information from Parts A and B to see if PF-08046050 is safe and if it works to treat certain solid tumor cancers. Part D and E of the study, together with information from Parts A and B, will find out how much PF-08046050 should be given in combination with other anti-cancer agents. Part E will use the information from Parts A, B, and D to see if PF-08046050 is safe in combination with other anti-cancer agents and if it works to treat a certain solid tumor.

A Study of Sigvotatug Vedotin in Advanced Solid Tumors

This trial will look at a drug called sigvotatug vedotin (SGN-B6A) alone and with pembrolizumab, with or without chemotherapy, to find out whether it is safe for people who have solid tumors. It will study sigvotatug vedotin to find out what its side effects are. A side effect is anything the drug does besides treating cancer. It will also study whether sigvotatug vedotin works to treat solid tumors. The study will have four parts. * Part A of the study will find out how much sigvotatug vedotin should be given to participants. * Part B will use the dose found in Part A to find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is and if it works to treat solid tumors. * Part C of the study will find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is in combination with these other drugs. * Part D will include people who have not received treatment. This part of the study will find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is in combination with these other drugs and if these combinations work to treat solid tumors. * In Parts C and D, participants will receive sigvotatug vedotin with either: * Pembrolizumab or, * Pembrolizumab and carboplatin, or * Pembrolizumab and cisplatin.

A Phase IV Randomized Trial of Maxigesic® Versus Standard Analgesia After Radical Gastrectomy

Background: Radical gastrectomy causes moderate-to-severe pain during the first 48 hours after surgery. Opioids are effective but carry adverse effects and risks of prolonged use, so ERAS-based care recommends multimodal analgesia. Acetaminophen is the most commonly used non-opioid analgesic in gastrectomy patients; adding ibuprofen as a fixed-dose combination has shown improved analgesia and opioid-sparing effects compared with acetaminophen alone in other surgical populations, but direct evidence in gastrectomy patients is limited. Objective: To evaluate whether scheduled administration of an acetaminophen-ibuprofen fixed-dose combination (Maxigesic® IV) is superior to acetaminophen alone for pain relief after radical gastrectomy, with exploratory assessment of cost-effectiveness and of differences in analgesic efficacy according to genetic polymorphisms. Hypothesis: When given on an identical scheduled regimen, the acetaminophen-ibuprofen fixed-dose combination produces significantly lower pain scores (NRS) over the first 48 postoperative hours than acetaminophen alone (superiority). Study plan: This is a phase IV, multicenter, double-blind, randomized controlled trial in which 160 gastric cancer patients scheduled for minimally invasive radical gastrectomy (80 per arm) are randomized 1:1 with stratification by institution. In both arms, the assigned drug is given as a 15-minute intravenous infusion every 6 hours, starting 30 minutes before the end of surgery through 48 hours postoperatively. The primary endpoint is the between-group difference in the time-weighted average (TWA) of repeatedly measured resting and active NRS over 48 hours, analyzed using a mixed model for repeated measures (MMRM); secondary endpoints include opioid consumption (MME), the Quality of Recovery score (QoR-15K), the incidence of chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP), and in-hospital costs.

Perioperative Therapies in Locally Advanced Unresectable Gastric Cancer

Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most commonly diagnosed cancer, with over one million cases diagnosed annually worldwide. Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression in GC (seen in 4.4% to 53.4% of patients in different reports) is predictive biomarker of response to HER2-targeting therapies. Trastuzumab in combination with cisplatin or oxaliplatin, and a fluoropyrimidine (capecitabine or 5-fluorouracil \[5-FU\]), is approved anti-HER2 therapy for first-line treatment of HER2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer. Rilvegostomig 750 mg Q3W was selected as recommended Phase 2 dose based on all available ARTEMIDE-01 clinical safety, efficacy, PK, RO data as well as modeling analysis. The dose of 750 mg Q3W is predicted to achieve intra-tumoral RO of ≥ 90% in the majority of participants across a broad spectrum of conditions. This is a phase II study to initially assess the efficacy of perioperative Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd) and Capecitabine combination with or without Rilvegostomig in patients with HER2 positive locally advanced unresectable GC and potentially by subsequent protocol amendment in HER2 low locally advanced GC. Other agents may also subsequently be assessed in this protocol, by protocol amendments . \---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Therefore, these studies provide robust evidence that immune checkpoint inhibitors plus chemotherapy, specifically the perioperative durvalumab plus FLOT regimen, can increase pCR rate and significantly improve long-term survival outcomes for patients with resectable gastric, GEJ, or esophageal cancer.

One-Click Autofocus Versus Segmented Focus in Gastric Endoscopy

Magnifying endoscopy provides high-resolution images that enhance the detection of early gastrointestinal lesions. However, conventional manual zoom techniques require frequent focal adjustments, which can be technically demanding and may compromise image stability, especially in complex anatomical settings. This study evaluates a novel one-click autofocus system based on image recognition and computer vision algorithms. The system automatically adjusts focal distance within seconds, eliminating the need for manual operation. This trial aims to compare the efficiency and image quality of one-click autofocus versus segmented manual focus in patients undergoing magnifying endoscopy for gastric diseases. A tandem randomized controlled trial will be conducted to assess procedure time, image clarity score, and operator satisfaction between the two techniques.

Conversion Therapy Plus Surgery and Radiotherapy for Retroperitoneal Nodal Metastases in Gastric Cancer

This is a randomized, controlled, multicenter phase II clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of conversion therapy combined with radical gastrectomy and adjuvant radiotherapy targeting para-aortic (station 16) lymph nodes in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma and isolated station 16 nodal metastases. Eligible participants must have no evidence of peritoneal dissemination, visceral metastases, or non-regional lymphatic spread. Based on PD-L1 combined positive score (CPS), patients in the experimental arm will receive systemic therapy with SOX (S-1 plus oxaliplatin) with or without a PD-1 inhibitor, followed by D2 gastrectomy and postoperative adjuvant SOX chemotherapy, then intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) to the para-aortic region. The control arm will receive standard chemotherapy with CAPEOX or SOX, with or without immunotherapy, according to CPS status. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS), with secondary endpoints including overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and safety. This study aims to explore whether the addition of locoregional treatment to systemic therapy improves long-term outcomes in this select patient population.

Prevalence of Helicobacter Pylori Infection and Gastric Cancer in the West Indies

Estimating the prevalence of Helicobacter Pylori infection in newly diagnosed stomach cancers in the West-Indies will help to understand the epidemiology of this cancer, which is over-incident in the West Indies compared to France. In addition, the constitution of a biobank (tumor tissues, healthy tissues and serum) will allow to set up in a second time etiological studies to identify other risk factors in particular in connection with the exposure to environmental pollutants to adapt the prevention measures.

Proximal Versus Total Gastrectomy for Locally Advanced Siewert Type II-III Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer

This multicenter prospective randomized clinical trial aims to compare the safety and oncological effectiveness of proximal gastrectomy and total gastrectomy in patients with locally advanced Siewert type II-III gastroesophageal junction cancer. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to undergo either proximal gastrectomy or total gastrectomy using open, laparoscopic, or robotic surgical approaches according to clinical suitability. The primary outcome of the study is 3-year disease-free survival. Secondary outcomes include postoperative mortality, postoperative complications, and the number of metastatic lymph nodes retrieved. Patients will be followed for up to five years after surgery to evaluate long-term oncological outcomes.

Argon Plasma Coagulation Versus Endoscopic Mucosal Resection for Gastric Adenoma (CLER-GA)

Gastric adenomas with low-grade dysplasia (LGD) are considered precancerous lesions of the stomach. While these lesions carry a lower risk of progressing to gastric cancer compared with high-grade dysplasia, there is still uncertainty about the best way to manage them. International medical guidelines differ in their recommendations, and for very small lesions (1 cm or smaller), some guidelines provide no clear direction. This creates uncertainty for both patients and physicians about whether to treat these lesions or simply observe them over time. Two endoscopic treatment methods are widely used in clinical practice: endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and argon plasma coagulation (APC). EMR involves lifting and cutting out the lesion. Its major advantage is that it removes the lesion completely and allows for detailed pathological examination. However, EMR can be technically more demanding, takes more time, and may carry higher risks of complications such as bleeding or perforation. It also usually involves higher medical costs. In contrast, APC is a technique that uses ionized argon gas and electrical current to coagulate tissue without direct contact. APC is simpler to perform, takes less time, and is generally less invasive. Patients undergoing APC may have shorter hospital stays, lower costs, and fewer complications. However, APC does not provide a specimen for pathology, so complete removal of the lesion cannot be confirmed. This means there is a possibility of local recurrence. Several retrospective studies have examined APC for gastric LGD, and results have suggested it may be effective for small lesions. However, recurrence rates reported in previous studies have varied widely, from less than 2% to more than 20%. Importantly, no large randomized controlled trial has directly compared APC with EMR for small gastric LGD lesions. This study seeks to fill that gap. The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness and safety of APC and EMR for treating gastric adenomas that are 1 cm or smaller with low-grade dysplasia. Specifically, the study aims to determine whether APC is "non-inferior" to EMR in preventing local recurrence of these lesions. In other words, researchers want to know if APC works just as well as EMR in controlling the disease, while also offering potential advantages such as fewer complications, shorter procedure time, and lower costs. Participants in this study will: Be adults (age 20 or older) diagnosed with a gastric adenoma 1 cm or smaller with low-grade dysplasia. Be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to receive either APC or EMR. Receive standard medical care after the procedure, including medications to help the stomach heal. Return for follow-up endoscopy at 3 months and 12 months after the procedure. During these visits, the treated area will be checked carefully, and biopsies may be taken to determine whether the lesion has recurred. Provide information about any complications, the duration of the procedure, and their recovery experience. The main question is whether APC can prevent recurrence of gastric adenomas as effectively as EMR. Secondary questions include how the two treatments differ in terms of complications (such as bleeding or perforation) and procedure time. Both APC and EMR are already established and commonly used treatments for gastric lesions. By directly comparing these two methods in a randomized controlled trial, this study will provide important evidence to guide future recommendations for patients with small gastric adenomas. The findings may help physicians and patients choose the best treatment option, balancing safety, effectiveness, and convenience.
