Trial summary

Anesthetics agents has variety inflammation during the cancer surgery. This perioperative inflammation can influence to cancer metastasis or recurrence. The purpose of this study is to prove the variation of immune cell activity between preoperative and postoperative period. Read more about this study

About this study

Anesthetics agents has variety inflammation during the cancer surgery. This perioperative inflammation can influence to cancer metastasis or recurrence.

The purpose of this study is to prove the variation of immune cell activity between preoperative and postoperative period.

Read the detailed description

The patients were allocated randomly to receive propofol or sevoflurane. Also, a total of 18ml of blood sample was obtained for total 3 times in consecutive order.

  1. immediate before anesthesia induction
  2. postoperative 1 hours
  3. postoperative 24 hours

Serum in blood will be obtained and activity of helper T cell, natural killer cell and level of serum cytokine will be evaluated by flow cytometry or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay

Conditions
Colon Cancer
Being tested
propofol group, sevoflurane group
Medical subject headings
Colonic Neoplasms

What participants receive

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

  • propofol groupDrug

    Also called propofol

    Patient will be anesthetized by using propofol infusion during operation

  • sevoflurane groupDrug

    Also called sevoflurane

    Patient will be anesthetized by using sevoflurane inhalation during operation

What is being measured

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

  1. natural killer cell activity

    change of percentage of natural killer cell (scores range from 0 to 100)

    Measured: preoperative time. postoperative 1 hours and 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. helper T cell activity

    change of percentage of helper T cell (scores range from 0 to 100)

    Measured: preoperative time. postoperative 1 hours and 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing propofol group and sevoflurane group in people with Colon Cancer, run by Konkuk University Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Apr 2021. 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 South Korea. 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?

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?

natural killer cell activity (time frame: preoperative time. postoperative 1 hours and 24 hours). 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 20 Apr 2021.
