About this study

Official title: Clinical Study of the Impact of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy on Peritoneal Recurrence and Prognosis of Patients With Stage T4 Colorectal Cancer After Radical Surgery: A Multicentre Randomised Clinical Trial

This multicentric study aims to determine if hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) will help to prevent the development of peritoneal carcinomatosis in addition to the standard adjuvant systemic treatment after surgery.

Read the detailed description

Background:

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignancy worldwide, nearly 1.4 million new cases every year, for about 694000 deaths. Surgery is the primary treatment and results in a cure rate of approximately 50% of the patients. However, recurrence following surgery is a major problem, the second most common site of recurrence was peritoneum, which was as a result of the intraperitioneal free cancer cells (FCC) and microscopic cancer (MC). The remaining free cancers and microscopic cancer in abdominal cavity can not be killed completely because of the "peritoneal-plasma barrier" and "non-sufficient drug concentration in abdominal cavity by systemic venous chemotherapy". In recent years, hyperthermic intraperitioneal chemotherapy(HIPEC) has already been shown to be effective in improving the 5 year survival rate of colorectal cancer. However, lots of clinically studies for patients with colorectal cancer are advanced, it is not sure yet whether surgery combined with HIPEC is effective on decreasing the rate of peritoneal carcinomatosis in T4 stage colorectal cancer. The efficacy tend to be magnified when stage T4 patients account for less, confusing HIPEC for treatment of patients with advanced colorectal cancer. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the clinical efficacy of HIPEC in T4 stage patients, ruling out the effects of different T stages on curative effect. The results of this study will hopefully provide the clinical basis for improving the prognosis of patients with advanced colorectal cancer.

Study design: This is a multicenter study in which 300 patients with T4 colorectal cancer will be randomized to surveillance alone (control group) or HIPEC (experimental group) after resection of the primary tumor, either by laparoscopy or open approach. Subsequently, all patients started mfolfox6 chemotherapy after operation in a month. Adverse reaction of chemotherapy during chemotherapy and post chemotherapy period will be recorded.

Study population:

The patients with colorectal cancer (T4N0-2M0) will undergo a curative resection by laparoscopy or open approach.

Intervention:

HIPEC equipment used in the perfusion fluid (Lobaplatin of 50mg completely dissolved in 3000ml saline solution) is headed to 43℃. Then, it is injected into the peritoneal cavity by flow velocity of 200-400ml/min for 60 minutes.

Outcomes:

Primary endpoint is incidence of endoperitoneal recurrence at 36 months. Secondary endpoints are disease-free survival, overall survival, incidence of peritoneal carcinomatosis at end of follow-up with or without concomitant liver/lung metastases, quality of life and morbidity rate.

What participants receive

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

  • Surgery and HIPEC with LobaplatinProcedure or surgery

    Also called The combination of surgery and HIPEC with Lobaplatin

    The combination of surgery and HIPEC with Lobaplatin are performed in patients with colorectal cancer (T4N0-2M0).

  • Surgery without HIPECProcedure or surgery

    Also called Standard surgical treatment by laparoscopy or open approach.

    The patients with colorectal cancer (T4N0-2M0) are undergone a curative resection by laparoscopy or open approach.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Surgery and HIPEC with Lobaplatin and Surgery without HIPEC in people with Colorectal Neoplasms, run by Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University.

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 6 inclusion and 8 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 18 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 MeiJin Huang, MD (86-020-38250745, meijinhuang3@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of endoperitoneal recurrence at 36 months (time frame: 36 months). 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 18 Jul 2017.
