Brief Summary
This study is a multicenter, prospective cohort study, which are planned to enroll at least 600 patients who diagnosed the primary gastric cancer (GC); around 50 patients with premalignant gastric lesions (PGLs) and early gastric neoplasias (EGC) treated by endoscopy resection; and no less than 600 healthy normal cohort participants, for more than 18 months in the Spanish population. All participants who enrolled in this registry will be questioned by the life habits survey; and clinical data and biological samples of these participants were analyzed in order to look for new diagnostic tools. The aim of this study is to evaluate clinical, endoscopic and molecular approaches to identify individuals with high-risk of GC. Thus, it would be allow the adoption of preventive measures to reduce mortality through early detection and/or the reduction of its incidence.

Study Arms (4)
EPIGASTRIC
Patients with GC.
EDGAR 1
Symptomatic patients subjected to a diagnostic gastroscopy to study the prevalence of premalignant gastric lesions.
EDGAR 2
Patients with premalignant gastric lesions and early gastric neoplasias treated by endoscopy resection.
Negative control
Patients from "EDGAR 1" without gastric pathology or familial history of this neoplasia.
Interventions
Demographics, life habits and risk factors studies
Identification and characterization of premalignant gastric lesions through high definition endoscopic study. Concordance between endoscopic and histological classifications
Genomic studies for the identification of individuals with hereditary GC predisposition
Eligibility Criteria
This cohort study is designed to enroll the Spanish population patients who are diagnosed gastric cancer; symptomatic patients subjected to a diagnostic gastroscopy who have or not premalignant gastric lesions and early gastric neoplasias susceptible to be treated by endoscopy resection; and healthy control participants by multicenter-prospective registry. Nevertheless, the study will be open to international participation.
You may qualify if:
- Adults over 18 years-old.
- EDGAR 1 cohort: symptomatic patients undergoing a diagnostic gastroscopy for a prevalence study of PGLs.
- EDGAR 2 cohort: PGLs and early GC with indication for endoscopic resection.
- EPIGASTRIC cohort: patients diagnosed with GC.
- CONTROL cohort: patients without gastric pathology or a familial history of GC, obtained from the EDGAR 1.
You may not qualify if:
- Refusal of the patient to participate in the study.
- Medical, psychological or legal inability of the patient to enter the study.
- EDGAR1: Previous diagnosis of PGLs, previous gastric surgery, contraindication for gastroscopy or taking biopsies.
- EDGAR 2: Contraindication for resection/biopsy.
- EPIGASTRIC: gastric neoplasm other than adenocarcinoma.
