What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • capecitabine plus oxaliplatinDrug

    The neoadjuvant chemotherapy consisted of oxaliplatin, 130 mg/m² on day 1, with capecitabine, 1000 mg/m² twice daily for 14 days every 3 weeks (the XELOX regimen)

Study groups in NCT02415829
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Neoadjuvant chemotherapyExperimentalA total of 55 cases of locally advanced colon cancer will be enrolled in this arm. After radiological staging, patients were treated first with 3 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy consisting of oxaliplatin, 130 mg/m² on day 1, with capecitabine, 1000 mg/m² twice daily for 14 days every 3 weeks (the XELOX regimen), followed by tumor resection, and then with another 5 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy with the XELOX regimen. Radiological response was evaluated after 2 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy . A total of 3 cycles neoadjuvant chemotherapy was completed unless there was unacceptable toxicity, emergency operation condition or tumor progression during the period. Tumor responses, toxicities, and surgical complications were recorded. The pathological tumor response in the primary tumor was evaluated according to tumor regression grade (TRG) score.
Receives: Drug: capecitabine plus oxaliplatin

What is being measured

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

  1. The tumor regression grade of all the patients enrolled

    Measured: from the first cycle of treatment (day one) to tumor resection

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants receiving complete tumor resection

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of the last patients receiving the surgery

  2. Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    Measured: from the first cycle of treatment (day one) to six month after the last cycle

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing capecitabine plus oxaliplatin in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Fudan University 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 9 inclusion and 4 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 14 Apr 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The tumor regression grade of all the patients enrolled (time frame: from the first cycle of treatment (day one) to tumor resection). 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 NCT02415829, 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 14 Apr 2015.
