Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

• Demographic characteristics of patients with gastric cancer in Algeria

  The patient's demographic profile will include age (years) and sex. Body Mass Index (BMI) will be calculated using weight (kg) and height (m) according to the formula BMI = weight / height² (kg/m²).

  At Baseline ( Initial visit )

• Sociological characteristics of patients with gastric cancer in Algeria

  The patient's sociological profile will be described as a composite variable : Education level (primary, secondary, university, other), Profession (employed, unemployed, retired, student, other), Place of residence (current residence; urban or rural), Origin (wilaya of birth/origin)

  At Baseline ( Initial visit )

• Epidemiological characteristics of patients with gastric cancer in Algeria.

  Frequency (%) of epidemiological risk factors including family history of cancer, Helicobacter pylori infection, smoking status, alcohol consumption, dietary habits, and exposure to chemical substances.

  At Baseline (Initial Visit)

• Clinical characteristics of patients with gastric cancer in Algeria.

  Distribution of patients according to initial symptoms, tumor localization, histological characteristics, biomarker expression, presence of metastases, and tumor stage according to the AJCC classification.

  At Basline ( Initial Visit)

• Evolutionary characteristics of patients with gastric cancer.

  Distribution of treatment modalities including surgery (palliative or curative) and chemotherapy (adjuvant or treatment lines), as well as treatment response, complications, disease-free survival (DFS), and duration of response.

  At Baseline ( Initial Visit)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Diagnostic modalities in patients with gastric cancer in Algeria

  At Basline (Initial Visit)

• Therapeutic management modalities

  At Baseline (Initial Visit)
