Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • The performance of each single feature and the ensemble model with integrated features for early GC detection

    The efficacy of each single feature-based model and the ensemble model comparing with pathologic diagnostic results, the gold standard, and gastroscope diagnosis, including sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV).

    18 months

  • The performance of each single feature and the ensemble model with integrated features for early GC detection in each clinical stage

    The efficacy of each single feature-based model and the ensemble model comparing with pathologic diagnostic results, the gold standard, and gastroscope diagnosis, including sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV).

    18 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The performance of the ensemble model in combination of possible GC related biomarkers such as PG, G17, and/or Hp levels for early GC detection

    18 months

Study Arms (2)

malignant group

patients diagnosed with high grade Intraepithelial neoplasia or GC (\> 50% of patients in stage I and II)

Genetic: whole genomic methylation and fragmentation profile analysis of cfDNA

non-malignant group

healthy individuals and patients with non-atrophic gastritis, gastric ulcer, gastric polyp or other benign gastric diseases

Genetic: whole genomic methylation and fragmentation profile analysis of cfDNA

Interventions

The assay for gastric cancer early detection will be built based on low-depth methylone sequencing followed with a multi-dimensional model construction with analysing several features such as methylation, fragmentation, and chromosomal copy number alternation.

Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

This study will enroll about 360 individuals who receive gastroscopy in The First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University (Xijing Hospital), Xi'an, Shaanxi province, China. Two groups will be formed based on gastroscopy results, malignant group and non-malignant group. The malignant group includes patients diagnosed with high grade Intraepithelial neoplasia or GC (\> 50% of patients in stage I and II) while the non-malignant group contains healthy individuals and patients with non-atrophic gastritis, gastric ulcer, gastric polyp or other benign gastric diseases.

You may qualify if:

  • Complete clinical info;
  • Patients self-agree to join the study and with signed patient consent and good compliance.
  • According to the definition of AJCC's 8th Edition Cancer Staging Manual, patients with gastric adenocarcinoma confirmed by histopathology and with pathological stages of stage I-IV, including patients with esophageal gastric junction adenocarcinoma (EGJ);
  • Has not previously received any local or systematic anti-tumor treatment.

You may not qualify if:

  • Diagnosed previously with any kind of malignant tumor;
  • Have received total or partial gastrectomy;
  • Have received bone marrow or organ transplantation;
  • Have received blood transfusion in the past 6 months;
  • Incomplete clinical info or unqualified to participate in the study.
