About this study

Official title: Preoperative Chemo-radiation With IG-IMRT Dose Escalation for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancers: Phase 2 Study (RADICAL)

Hypothesis : Therapeutic intensification by increasing the dose delivered to the tumor by RCMI (conformational radiotherapy by intensity modulation) in order to reduce local relapse, often associated with poor prognosis

Primary objective: evaluate the rate of tumor sterilization and the toxicities of RTCT with concomitant boost in intensity modulation in patients with rectal cancer CT3-T4 and / or cN1-2.

Being tested
Preoperative chemo-radiation with IG-IMRT dose escalation

TreatmentExperimental1. - Treatment : concomitant preoperative radio-chemotherapy (during 5 weeks) Chimiotherapy: Capecitabine 1600 mg/m2/j ; 5/7 days during the 5 weeks of radiotherapy Radiotherapy RT + SIB-IMRT (5 weeks ; 5 sessions/week ; 25 sessions): Pelvic prophylactic dose of 45 Gy (1,8 Gy/session); "boost" with a dose of 60 Gy on the tumor PTV (2,4 Gy/session) - Total dose: 60 Gy in 25 sessions during 5 weeks. 2. - TME surgery (8 weeks after the end of treatment)
Receives: Radiation: Preoperative chemo-radiation with IG-IMRT dose escalation

What is being measured

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

  1. Complete histological response rate

    Absence of residual cancer cells on the final analysis of the tumor and lymph node

    Measured: at 8 weeks after inclusion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Tolerance

    Toxicity is assessed according to the NCI-CTCAE toxicity scale version 4.0

    Measured: at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 13 weeks after inclusion and at 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33 and 36 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Preoperative chemo-radiation with IG-IMRT dose escalation in people with Advanced Rectal Cancers, run by Centre Georges Francois Leclerc at 2 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 13 inclusion and 12 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 24 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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?

Complete histological response rate (time frame: at 8 weeks after inclusion). 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 24 Jun 2020.
