Trial summary

Indications for colostomy are rectal or anal cancer, diverticular disease, radiation enteritis, complex perirectal fistulas, anorectal trauma, severe incontinence, motility and functional disorders. It is frequently required in critically ill patients who may not be able to tolerate a laparotomy. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: ENDOSCOPICALLY ASSISTED COLOSTOMY WITH COLOPEXY FOR CRITICALLY ILL PATIENTS WITHOUT GENERAL ANESTHESIA OR LAPAROTOMY. EXPERIMENTAL STUDY

Indications for colostomy are rectal or anal cancer, diverticular disease, radiation enteritis, complex perirectal fistulas, anorectal trauma, severe incontinence, motility and functional disorders. It is frequently required in critically ill patients who may not be able to tolerate a laparotomy. Laparoscopic-assisted colostomy is an alternative method for colostomy without laparotomy, but require general anesthesia.

Additionally, percutaneous anterior colopexy under colonocopic control offers the possibility for improved and faster fixation of the anterior colonic wall to the anterior abdominal wall.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of performing fecal diversion with the help of a colonoscope and colopexy, without the additional morbidity of abdominal exploration.

Read the detailed description

The colonoscope will be passed transanally into the left colon. It will be identified the endoscopic transilluminating point to the abdominal wall. Percutaneous anterior colopexy will be performed, using a gastropexy device that is included in the percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) kit . This technique involves the placement of a threaded nylon fastener into the colon through a needle.

The endoscope will be manipulated until the light approaches the premarked site. A small skin disc will then be removed at this location and a loop colostomy will be made. The colonoscope will also be used as a guide to identify the proximal and distal limbs of the loop colostomy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ENDOSCOPICALLY ASSISTED COLOSTOMY WITH COLOPEXY in people with Colonic Neoplasms and Rectal Neoplasms, run by University of Sao Paulo at 1 site in Brazil.

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 4 Dec 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 Brazil. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Safety and Tolerability of the procedure (time frame: 7 days). 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 NCT02308631, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 Dec 2014.
