Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are individuals diagnosed with GIST who can provide informed consent and willing to share medical information for research.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who do not wish to share their medical information or who do not meet consent requirements may not benefit from participation.

What this trial studies
The Life Raft Group GIST registry is an observational database that gathers medical information from individuals diagnosed with GIST and related cancers. It aims to improve understanding of disease patterns, outcomes, and potential links to treatments or molecular targets. Data may come from medical records, surveys, and a linked tissue bank, with separate consent required for tissue samples. Participation involves providing consent and sharing information; joining the registry does not require involvement in other LRG activities. The registry facilitates research by aggregating real-world experiences to support future studies and patient care improvements.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: Participants may contribute to research that could enhance understanding and management of GIST and related illnesses, potentially benefiting future patients.
How similar studies have gone: Other disease registries have successfully used real-world data to inform understanding and care, though this specific registry is observational and focused on GIST.

Two-tooth endoscopic clip to help remove and close stomach GISTs
Doctors will try a new two-tooth endoscopic clip used with a clip-and-line traction method during ESD and EFTR to see if it makes removing and closing gastric GISTs (2–5 cm) faster and safer for adults.
-
Regorafenib plus envafolimab versus physician's choice for metastatic GIST with KIT exon 17 mutation

-
Comparing EFTR versus STER for removing small gastric GISTs
This trial will test whether endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) or submucosal tunneling endoscopic resection (STER) is better at completely removing small (1.0–3.5 cm) gastric GISTs in adults.
