Influence of Tumor Associated Immunity on the Number of Lymph Node Retrieved After Colorectal Cancer Surgery (Preliminary Study)
An observational study of Colorectal Cancer, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.
Trial summary
Hypothesis of this study is that increased immunity of primary tumor affects the increased number of lymph node retrieved. This study investigates whether immunity-related cytokine expression on primary tumor, colonic mucosa, and serum is associated with the number of lymph node retrieved in colorectal cancer patients.

| Colorectal cancer patients | Colorectal cancer patients undergoing elective colorectal resection |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Association between immune related cytokine and number of lymph nodes retrieved.
Immunity related cytokine - IL-12, IFN-r, GM-CSF, IL-4, TNF-a, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TGF-b1, CXCR4, SDF1, HGF, VEGF - expression is assessed using Bioplex assay. Patient serum is taken one day before surgery. Primary tumor and colonic mucosal tissue are taken just after surgery. Bioplex assay is performed after patients' enrollment
Measured: 2 months after surgery

An observational study of Colorectal Cancer, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.
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 1 inclusion and 1 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 30 Jan 2013. 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 South Korea. 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.
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?
Association between immune related cytokine and number of lymph nodes retrieved. (time frame: 2 months after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01629524, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 30 Jan 2013.
