Trial summary

The results of this study will make it possible, thanks to better understanding of the natural history of colorectal cancer, to define new treatment and surveillance strategies for colorectal cancers resected with curative intent, so as to improve management and thus improve patient survival.

About this study

The results of this study will make it possible, thanks to better understanding of the natural history of colorectal cancer, to define new treatment and surveillance strategies for colorectal cancers resected with curative intent, so as to improve management and thus improve patient survival.

These data will also make it possible to calculate the prevalence of patients who require treatment or surveillance because of their disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. data concerning evolving relapse

    • the date of recurrence
    • the site
    • the finality of the surgical treatment (resection with curative intent defined as macroscopically complete resection, without involvement of the surgical margin in the histological examination)
    • the non-surgical adjuvant or palliative treatments (radiotherapy, chemotherapy).

    Measured: during the 10 years following resection for colorectal cancer with curative intent

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.
