About this study

Official title: Randomized Phase II Tiral of Using SIB-IMRT in Preoperative Radiotherapy for Locally Advanced Rectum Cancer

Pathological complete response, (pCR) correlates with a favorable overall prognosis in locally advanced rectal cancer patients underwent preoperative chemoradiation, so obtaining a pCR might be beneficial. The aim of the study is to investigate safety and efficacy of preoperative SIB-IMRT(56Gy) combine with capecitabine. primary endpoint is pathological complete remission rate.

What is being measured

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

  1. • Pathological complete remission rate (pCR)

    Measured: after pathological examination of surgical speciments (6-8 weeks after chemoradiation)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of participants with adverse events (according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) - Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0 (CTCAE)

    Acute toxicities will be assessed every week during chemoradiation period , one week before surgery(6 weeks after chemoradiation) and every 3 months after surgery for 2 years.Late toxicities will be assessed every 6 months from the 3rd year for 3 years.Adverse eventswill be evaluated according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) - Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0 (CTCAE)

    Measured: during preoperative treatment and after surgery for 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing conventional fraction and SIB in people with Rectal Cancer, run by Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences at 1 site in China.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2015. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Jing Jin, Professor (87788280, jingjin1025@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

• Pathological complete remission rate (pCR) (time frame: after pathological examination of surgical speciments (6-8 weeks after chemoradiation)). 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 4 Feb 2015.
