Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The goal of this trial is to demonstrate that the use of Tri-Staple Technology for duodenal resection during open gastrectomy for cancer is safer than the use of other conventional methods of resection/closure of the duodenum and that the incidence of duodenal fistula can be decreased to that observed after the use of this technology in Laparoscopic and robotic gastrectomy, therefore almost three times lower than that currently reported in literature.
Participating centres must have an annual volume of at least 20 gastrectomies per year.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer is still one of the most frequent malignancies in Europe. In United States the estimated new cases in 2010 were 21000 (12730 male and 8270 female) with 10570 estimated deaths (6350 male and 4220 female)\[7,8\]. In Italy the estimated new cases in 2013 were 13200 (7900 males and 5300 female) (AIOM-AIRTUM, I numeri del cancro in Italia - 2013, www.registri-tumori.it) .The incidence rates in 2005-2009 were 21.6 and 10.8 per 100,000 in males and females respectively. The mortality rates in 2005-2009 were 14.9 and 7.3 per 100,000 in males and females respectively. (www.itacan.ispo.toscana.it).A total or subtotal gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection and R0 margins remains the standard of care for gastric cancer\[9,10\]. Despite this, in low-volume centers gastrectomy still remains a challenging procedure with a notable morbidity rate (33%-43%) and mortality rate (7%-12%)\[11,12\]. Duodenal stump fistula (DSF) represents an infrequent but severe complication after total or subtotal gastrectomy for gastric cancer, with incidence of 2,5 - 5% and mortality rate ranging from 7% to 67%(1-5). Several factors were identified as possible cause of DSF, such as local hematoma, inflammation, intra-operative inadequate closure of the duodenal stump, incorrect drain position, devascularization, post-operative distension of the duodenum and R1-R2 resections\[2,13\].
There are many DSF-related complications leading to longer hospitalization times, such as intra-abdominal abscesses, wound infections, diffuse peritonitis, sepsis, malnutrition, pancreatitis, abdominal bleeding, and pneumonia. (3) DSF is often difficult to treat because of the highly enzyme-rich duodenal juice and deep location of the fistula. In a retrospective multicenter study (2) 3,685 patients undergoing gastrectomy for malignancies who developed 68 DSFs were analyzed; it was reported that DSF features had changed in the last 30 years and that DSF alone no longer leads to death; some complications observed in the past, such as fluid and electrolyte loss and dermatitis, have disappeared owing to improvements( in particular parenteral nutrition and wound care). However, additional new complications such as bleeding and fistulas of neighboring organs were emerging. Although medical therapy is associated with better outcomes, surgery is still mandatory in cases of severe abdominal sepsis or bleeding not otherwise manageable.
However, reoperation is often ineffective owing to postoperative edema and inflammation, and the prognosis of patients undergoing surgery for DSF remains very poor. To improve the outcome of these patients, many surgical procedures have been proposed from washing the peritoneal cavity and abdominal drainage to tube duodenostomy (14,15), closure of the fistula, fistula repair with a rectus abdominis flap (16), fistula closure by Roux-en-Y duodenojejunostomy(17,18), biliogastric diversion, laparostomy, and pancreatoduodenectomy (19) but surgeons are often unsure about the best management and the result are often unsuccessful.
In a recent Korean national RCT (6) on open (ODG) vs laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LADG), the incidence of duodenal stump leakage after laparoscopyc gastrectomy was about 1%; in this population study the use of tri-staple technology for duodenal resection was mandatory. In our clinical practice, the incidence of DSF after open gastrectomy is about 3-5% adopting different techniques of duodenal stump resection/closure.
The aim of this study is to evaluate if duodenal stump resection/closure using tri-staple technology can significantly decrease the incidence of DSF after open gastrectomy as compared to the other conventional methods adopted in the clinical practice (1% vs 5%).
We have designed a national multicentre pragmatic (20) RCT to compare the use of endoGIA or Echelon (triStaple technology) to other conventional methods (GIA with or without manual reinforcement , manual suture, purse string) for duodenal resection/closure during open gastrectomy, with the assumption that Tri-staple technology without reinforcement ( as routinely used in LADG) is the safest method.

Participating centres must have an annual volume of at least 20 gastrectomies per year.
Design of the study This is a multicentre randomized controlled trial.
Patients with malignant tumor of the stomach, as primary diagnosis, requiring distal or total gastrectomy without anastomosis with the duodenum will undergo clinical preoperative workout and anaesthesiologist evaluation. All patients who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria and agree to sign the informed consent are registered into the trial and randomized to one of the two arms (a. Duodenal Stump Closure with TriStaple Technology - TST or b. Duodenal Stump closure with other conventional techniques - OCT ) as described in the chapter Randomization. In TST arm no manual reinforce of the mechanical suture should be perfomed; in OCT group, a manual reinforce of the suture can be done according to the preference of the operator, and recorded in the trial data base (DB).
Patients' postoperative course will be carefully monitored and all variables detailed below will be recorded in the DB.
DSF will be diagnosed by the presence of duodenal fluid in the surgical drainage and confirmed by a CT scan when needed (presence of intra-abdominal peri-duodenal collection of fluid and/or micro air bubbles).
Also the type of treatment (conservative, percutaneous drainage, reoperation, others ) of DSF should be recorded, as well as the length of hospital stay and other postoperative complications or in-hospital death ( as well as 30- and 90- days mortality)
Trial setting
This is an Italian national multicentre RCT; the Division of General Surgery from University of Turin, Department of Surgical Sciences, AOU San Luigi Gonzaga di Orbassano, will be the Coordinating Centre of the trial. The P.I. of the trial is Prof Maurizio Degiuli.
S.S.D. Epidemiologia, Clinica e Valutativa, AOU Città della Salute e della Scienza di Torino, will be responsible for this trial's central randomisation and statistical analysis.
Clinical monitoring and data managing will be performed by the P.I. and and co-investigators.

Patients refusing recruitment are treated with usual care and contribute to the database a limited set of pre-defined information.
Result of randomisation is communicated to the surgical team at the time of their entrance in the surgical theatre.
Sample size calculation and statistical analysis
Assuming an alpha error at the 5% level and power 80%, a total of 700 patients (350 per arm) are required in order to recognise a true difference of 5% in (a) vs 1% in (b).
Assuming an average case volume of 20 patients per year and 60% acceptance rate, about 30 Centres recruiting for two years will need to be involved.
Cox regression with multivariable analysis will be performed
Data property
