Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 30 participants
Allocation: N/A
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Prospective Clinical Study on Safety and Effectiveness of Endoscopic Full Thickness Resection for Treatment of Patients With Gastric Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST)
Actual Study Start Date : August 1, 2014
Estimated Primary Completion Date : December 31, 2024
Estimated Study Completion Date : December 31, 2024


Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Endoscopic Full Thickness Resection
Resection of the gastric GIST by ESD techniques followed by endoscopic closure of defect with suturing or clips and loop
Procedure: Endoscopic Full Thickness Resection
Endoscopic full thickness resection achieved by resecting the submucosal tumor using retraction techniques and submucosal dissection, followed by closure




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Complete resection of GIST [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
    Complete resection of the GIST defined by en-bloc resection in one piece by endoscopy with clear resection margins


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Adverse event rate [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
    Adverse event as defined by presence of either postoperative bleeding or leakage after closure

  2. Perioperative mortality [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
    Death within 30 days after procedure

  3. Histolology assessment [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
    Histology outcome as defined by any involvement of the tumor margins after resection

  4. Hospital stay [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
    Length of stay in hospital

  5. technical success in complete resection [ Time Frame: 1 day ]
    Technical success defined by complete endoscopic resection, closure of the defect and delivery of the specimen per orally without need of conversion to laparoscopic surgery
