About this study

Official title: Interest in Studying Fibroblast Before and After Neoadjuvant Chemo-radiotherapy in Patient With Locally Advanced Rectal Adenocarcinoma : Exploratory Study

Single center interventional study to explore activity of fibroblasts in the tumor and away in the healthy rectal tissue.

Read the detailed description

Patients included in the trial will have new biopsy performed before starting the Radiation Therapy and Chemotherapy (RT-CT). These biopsies will study the activity of fibroblasts in the tumor and away in the healthy rectal tissue. Within 8 to 10 weeks after the end of RT-CT, patients will have cancer surgery by proctectomy (with complete removal of the meso-rectum). On the resection specimen, new samples will be taken at the level of the tumor and away from the rectum.This study is single center interventional exploratory .

What is being measured

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

  1. Proteomic level evaluation in intra-tumor fibroblast

    Proteomic level is assessed before and after radiochemotherapy using SILAC technic (Stable Isotope Labeling by Amino acids in Cell culture)

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Study of fibroblast impact on colorectal tumor cells (in vitro)

    In vitro analysis including tumor cells characteristics: proliferation, invasive potential, stem cells phenotype).

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Biopsy in people with Rectum Adenocarcinoma, run by Institut Curie at 3 sites in France.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in France. 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?

Proteomic level evaluation in intra-tumor fibroblast (time frame: 3 years). 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 4 Dec 2023.
