Trial Title: Early Diagnosis of Gastric Cancer Cachexia

NCT ID: NCT06277986

Condition: Cachexia

Conditions: Official terms:
Wasting Syndrome
Cachexia

Study type: Observational

Overall status: Recruiting

Study design:

Time perspective: Retrospective

Intervention:

Intervention type: Other
Intervention name: cachexia
Description: Cachexia mainly manifests as weight loss. 1)weight loss >5% over past 6 months. 2)BMI<20 and any degree of weight loss >2%. 3)Appendicular skeletal muscle index consistent with sarcopenia and any degree of weight loss >2%.
Arm group label: Gastric cancer patients with cachexia
Arm group label: Gastric cancer patients with non-cachexia

Summary: Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies, the morbidity and mortality of which are among the highest. In cancer patients, the incidence of cachexia is very high, and even 80% of patients will eventually develop into cachexia. However, once gastric cancer patients develop cachexia, patients are unlikely to obtain clinically significant benefits from conventional treatment. Therefore, it is important to find biomarkers for early detection of cachexia. The investigators carried out a plasma-derived exosomal microRNA(miRNA) study for early diagnosis of cachexia in gastric cancer, and the development of early diagnosis kits for gastric cancer cachexia.
