Clinical Trial: Clinical Management Strategies for Patients With Cirrhosis and Esophagogastric Varices Complicated by Early-stage Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer

U.S., Jan. 27 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07368309) titled 'Clinical Management Strategies for Patients With Cirrhosis and Esophagogastric Varices Complicated by Early-stage Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer' on Jan. 11.

Brief Summary: Managing early-stage upper gastrointestinal cancer in patients with liver cirrhosis and esophagogastric varices (EGV) poses substantial clinical challenges. Although endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an established treatment for these early cancers, its efficacy and safety in this high-risk population are poorly defined. Therefore, this study aims to investigate optimal screening and treatment strategies for early-stage upper gastrointestinal cancer in cir...
