<body><p>Gillen and McColl correctly point out the problems of a retrospective study and we do state in the article that we were unsure as to why some patients had been prescribed antisecretory therapy while others had not. We feel it might be difficult to justify a prospective study on ethical grounds when the consequences of missing just one cancer would be enormous in the context of a clinical trial, not to mention any medicolegal implications. To a large extent, the argument about advanced cancer patients having different symptoms is irrelevant if patients with ulcer like symptoms are being missed when the diagnosis is really “ulcer cancer”. As Gillen and McColl suggest, these patients are less likely to have advanced disease but surely this is precisely the group we should be diagnosing as early as possible (and hence at the first gastroscopy). If “symptomatic treatment” turns out to be healing treatment, masking the true diagnosis, this is a cause for serious concern. The extent to which proton pump inhibitors might do this is even more worrying.</p>
<p>With regard to their second point, there is ample evidence in the literature that the stage at which gastric cancer is diagnosed affects five year survival and very early disease is curable.<xref rid="B1-1" ref-type="bibr">1-1</xref>
In our health district the vast majority of gastric cancers are beyond stage II, and the point of our paper was to highlight the fact that a significant number of patients had previously been investigated and told they had benign disease. The patients reasonably expect that their prognosis would have been better if they had been diagnosed six months or one year earlier. As 87% of our patients do not have early stage disease<xref rid="B1-2" ref-type="bibr">1-2</xref>
and the authors do not operate on patients, the outcome of surgery was not the prime focus of the paper. We know that very few will be cured by surgery. The only effective way of improving outcome is to diagnose the condition earlier and the crucial question is whether this is achievable in the UK.</p>
<p>Finally, we are not proposing any changes which would have “huge resource implications” or result in “major changes in clinical practice”. Our message is that proton pump inhibitors should not be prescribed to patients with dyspepsia over the age of 45 years without a gastroscopy. It follows, therefore, that patients should not have to wait an unnecessarily long time for this simple investigation. Is a randomised, controlled trial really needed to confirm that this is good clinical practice?</p>
