Abstract:
The CLASS group's vision carries out "research, standardization and promotion of new technologies for laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery, cooperation, mutual benefit, hand in hand to the international academic frontier, leading the scientific development of minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer in China, and benefiting people's health with high-level clinical research". In the past ten years, CLASS group has become a pioneering force in promoting the progress of laparoscopic surgery for gastric cancer in China. The successful implementation of the CLASS - 01 trail has created a new standard in the clinical research of minimally invasive gastrointestinal surgery and cultivated a high - level surgical clinical research team all over the country. After the successful CLASS - 01 trial, the trials from CLASS - 02 to - 05 has been successfully implemented, CLASS - 06 to - 10 series are in an orderly advancement. On the tenth anniversary of the establishment of the CLASS group, we would like to thank the help from peer, review the development process, look forward to future cooperation, and work together to create a new situation of minimally invasive surgery.
