About this study

Official title: Combined Resection of Intra- and Extra-Hepatic Metastases From Colorectal Cancer: A Phase II Trial

This is a Phase II study of combined surgical resection for patients with both intra- and extra-hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer. The primary objective is to determine the two-year disease free survival (DFS) of patients who undergo surgical resection of both intra- and extra-hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer. The secondary objectives are to determine the overall survival rate (OS), patterns of treatment failure, treatment efficacy (R0 resection rate), peri-operative morbidity and mortality rates, health related quality of life, and hospital length of stay.

Read the detailed description

This phase II clinical study will examine the outcomes of surgical therapy for patients with both intra- and extra-hepatic CRC metastases.

The treatment protocol includes surgical resection of metastases from Colorectal cancer. Multi-modality co-interventions such as chemotherapy (neo-adjuvant, or post-operative), radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and/or portal vein embolization (PVE) will be permitted.

The eligibility criteria include: patients with both intra-hepatic and extra-hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer, the number of extra-hepatic metastases must be three or less on pre-operative imaging, all metastatic deposits must be resectable with R0 intent, there must be no contra-indications to major surgery and an ECOG performance status of 0, 1 or 2.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • surgical resection for patients with both intra- and extra-hepatic metastasesProcedure or surgery

    Simultaneous resection with R0 intent of intra-abdominal metastases from CRC. For patients with extra-abdominal disease, sequential resection will be permitted

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. two-year disease free survival (DFS)

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall survival rate (OS), patterns of treatment failure, treatment efficacy (R0 resection rate), peri-operative morbidity and mortality rates, health related quality of life, hospital length of stay

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing surgical resection for patients with both intra- and extra-hepatic metastases in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by University Health Network, Toronto at 1 site in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jan 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

two-year disease free survival (DFS) (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Jan 2014.
