About this study

Official title: Multimodal Assessment of Liver Volume and Function in Patients With Colorectal Liver Metastases

In liver surgery peroperative assessment och the future liver remnant (FLR) is pivotal in order to avoid posthepatectomy liver failure. To date this is mainly performed by measuring the volume of the FLR. Of course FLR volume acts as a surrogate measure of FLR function and the correlation between volume and function is not always accurate. Several techniques to assess FLR function has been proposed. Hepatobiliary scintigraphy (HBS) and Dynamic MRI are the two such methods. In this study we compare HBS and MRI, in addition to contrast-enhanced CT and ICG, repeatedly performed before and after right hepatectomy in patients with colorectal liver metastases treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

What participants receive

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

  • Multimodal liver function assessmentDiagnostic test

    HBS, MRI, CE-CT and ICG

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between HBS and MRI in assessment of FLR function preop

    HBS, MRI, CT and ICG performed the day before surgery

    Measured: Preop

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Correlation between HBS and MRI in assessment of FLR function POD 7

    HBS, MRI, CT and ICG performed 7 days after surgery

    Measured: POD 7

  2. Correlation between HBS and MRI in assessment of FLR function POD 28

    HBS, MRI, CT and ICG performed 28 days after surgery

    Measured: POD 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Cancer and Liver Metastases, run by Karolinska University Hospital at 1 site in Sweden.

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 26 Nov 2019. 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 Sweden. 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?

Correlation between HBS and MRI in assessment of FLR function preop (time frame: Preop). 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 26 Nov 2019.
