Trial summary

Kono and collegues have described a new anastomotic technique to restore bowel contintuity after ileocecal resection for Crohn's disease (CD). This tecnique implies a hand-sewn ileocolic anastomosis, that involves exclusively the antimesenteric side of the bowel and that functionally acts as an end-to-end anastomosis.

About this study

Official title: A New Anastomotic Technique After Ileocecal Resection for Crohn's Disease. Kono-s Anastomosis vs Stapled Side-to-side Anastomosis: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Kono and collegues have described a new anastomotic technique to restore bowel contintuity after ileocecal resection for Crohn's disease (CD).

This tecnique implies a hand-sewn ileocolic anastomosis, that involves exclusively the antimesenteric side of the bowel and that functionally acts as an end-to-end anastomosis.

Read more

In a retrospective study, the authors have shown that this anastomotic tecnique, when compared to stapled side-to-side anastomosis, significantly reduces the severity of endoscopic recurrence at 1 year after surgery and the rate of reoperation for anastomotic recurrence at 5 years after surgery.

Aim of this trial is to compare the outcomes of the Kono anastomosis with the ones achieved by the stapled side-to-side anastomosis, within a prospective randomized study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Grade of endoscopic recurrence

    Severity of endoscopic recurrence (graded according to Rutgeerts' score) at the site of anastomosis at 6 months after surgery.

    Measured: 6 Months

  2. Surgical recurrence

    Rate of patients requiring resection for anastomotic recurrence within 5 years after surgery

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Endoscopic recurrence

    Presence of endoscopic recurrence

    Measured: 6 months up to 5 years

  2. Grade of endoscopic recurrence

    Severity of endoscopic recurrence at the site of anastomosis

    Measured: 6 months up to 5 years

  3. Clinical recurrence

    Presence of clinical recurrence (according to Crohn's disease activity index)

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  4. Operating time

    Duration of the operation (min)

    Measured: Intraoperatively

  5. Anastomosis time

    Time (min) required to perform the anastomosis

    Measured: Intraoperatively

  6. Anastomotic leak

    Incidence of anastomotic leak

    Measured: Up to 30 days

  7. Surgical re-intervention

    Rate of patients requiring surgical re-intervention

    Measured: Up to 30 days

  8. Postoperative morbidity rate

    Postoperative surgical (bleeding, obstruction, postoperative ileus, abdominal collection, wound infection) and medical morbidity as well as mortality will be documented and graded according to the Dindo Clavien classification

    Measured: Up to 30 days

  9. Recovery times

    Length of post-operative hospital stay, time to first flatus, time to first defecation, time to tolerance of liquid and solid diet will be documented

    Measured: Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 5 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Kono anastomosis and Stapled side-to-side anastomosis in people with Crohn Disease, run by Federico II University at 1 site in Italy.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Feb 2017. 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 Italy. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Luigi Bucci, Prof (00390817462850, luigi.bucci@unina.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Grade of endoscopic recurrence (time frame: 6 Months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02631967, which also lists 2 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 15 Feb 2017.
