About this study

Official title: Study of Safety and Feasibility of the Intersphincteric Resection With or Without Intraoperative Radiation in Low Rectal Cancer

The purpose of this study was to research on the safety and feasibility of ISR combined with low energy X ray intra-operative radiotherapy for the patients with local advanced rectal cancer.

Read the detailed description

Inter-sphincteric resection (ISR) has become an increasingly popular optional surgical tool for the treatment of very low rectal cancer. Nowadays, preoperative criteria for Lap ISR were the patients whose diagnosed with clinical stages T1-2 and N0_1, which only a few patients with early stages can benefit from it. However, intra-operative radiotherapy with low energy X ray applied by Intrabeam is becoming an accepted radiotherapy technique for treatment of cancers. The purpose of this study was to research on the safety and feasibility of ISR combined with low energy X ray intra-operative radiotherapy for the patients with local advanced rectal cancer.

What participants receive

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

  • Interoperative radiation by INTRABEAM using low energy X-rayRadiation

    Intrabeam is a mobile Platform for Intraoperative Radiotherapy (IORT) produced by the ZEISS company in Germany.Interoperative radiation by INTRABEAM using low energy X-ray.The Intrabeam PRS appears to be a safe technique for delivering IORT in rectal cancer patients.

Study groups in NCT03393234
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
A groupExperimentalPatients who receive interphincteric resection (ISR) in this group will be given extra intraoperative radiation by INTRBEAM using low energy X-ray.
Receives: Radiation: Interoperative radiation by INTRABEAM using low energy X-ray
B groupNo interventionPatients who only receive interphincteric resection (ISR) in this group without intraoperative radiation.

What is being measured

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

  1. 3-year disease free survival

    Compare 3-year disease free survival in patients with resectable rectal cancer treated with or without radiation.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. local recurrence rate

    In our study, no matter whether distant metastases occurred, if there was the presence of any anastomotic, pelvic, or lateral node recurrences recorded by pathologic or clinical examination, we defined it as local recurrence.

    Measured: 1 years

  2. R0 resection rate

    To calculate the radical resection rate.

    Measured: 1 years

  3. sphincter muscle function

    Indicated by the anorectal manometry

    Measured: 1 years

  4. anorectal manometry

    To measure the anus pressure to indirectly reflect the sphincter muscle function

    Measured: 1 years

  5. predictive biomarkers

    Each follow-up, the biomarkers such as CEA,CA19-9 etc were recorded.

    Measured: 3 years

  6. sexual function

    Investigated by the questionnaire including the International Index of Erectile dysfunction. (IIEF5)

    Measured: 1 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Interoperative radiation by INTRABEAM using low energy X-ray in people with Rectal Cancer, run by Second Hospital of Jilin University at 1 site in China.

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 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 8 Jan 2018. 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 China. 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 Min Wang, M.D. ((+86)13074373336, jdeywangmin@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

3-year disease free survival (time frame: 3 years). 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 NCT03393234, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 8 Jan 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
