About this study

Official title: Screening for Synchronous Metastases in Colorectal Cancer With DW-MRI.

Eligible patients with high risk colorectal malignancy (T3/4, spread greater than 5mm, EMVI positive) will have additional surveillance of breath hold T1, T2 and DW-MRIs (no IV contrast) post surgery six monthly for three years.

Findings of liver MRIs as reported by radiology PI will be shared with their local MDT who make decisions as appropriate, including the management of any identified liver metastases, according to local protocol.

Read the detailed description

A phase II multicentre, interventional study to determine if additional staging at diagnosis with liver DW-MRI will diagnose more synchronous metastases than CT alone in patients with high risk colorectal cancer. Liver metastases found on the additional DW-MRI scans will be discussed at MDT and treated according to local policy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Liver metastases found on the additional DW-MRI scans will be discussed at MDT and treated according to local site policy.

    Proportion of additional patients diagnosed with liver metastases on DW MRI compared with CT.

    Measured: 5 years after last recruit (end of trial)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. To compare the baseline risk factors of the primary tumour against the timing and pattern of metastatic disease relapse in the liver.

    % of patients diagnosed with liver metastases according to known prognostic risk factors

    Measured: 5 years after last recruit (end of trial)

  2. To determine the sensitivity and specificity of DW-MRI as a screening method for liver lesions in patients with high risk colorectal cancer.

    % lesions suspected as metastatic on DW MRI confirmed by subsequent 'gold standard' of contrast enhanced MRI and/or surgical resection, and/or progressive enlargement of the lesion.

    Measured: 5 years after last recruit (end of trial)

  3. To describe the cancer specific disease free survival and overall survival outcomes in patients with and without liver metastases.

    Survival and recurrence outcomes according to presence or absence of liver metastases

    Measured: 6mth, 12mth, 18mth, 2yr, 3yr

  4. To characterise the patients diagnosed through screening with liver metastasis in the SERENADE study using the Fong criteria.

    Fong score of all patients with liver metastases

    Measured: 5 years after last recruit (end of trial)

  5. To describe the impact of MR screening on treatment received by patients who are diagnosed with liver metastases.

    Proportion of patients undergoing curative treatment and methods of treatment

    Measured: 5 years after last recruit (end of trial)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Diffusion Weighted MRI scan in people with Colorectal Neoplasms and Neoplasm Metastases, run by Imperial College London at 13 sites in United Kingdom.

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 5 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in United Kingdom. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Caroline Martin (+44 (0) 7749 655 817, c.martin1@imperial.ac.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Liver metastases found on the additional DW-MRI scans will be discussed at MDT and treated according to local site policy. (time frame: 5 years after last recruit (end of trial)). 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 17 Oct 2024.
