Chinese TaTME Registry Collaborative
An observational study of Rectal Cancer, run by Beijing Friendship Hospital at 1 site in China.
Trial summary
Total mesorectal excision (TME) is the gold standard procedure for treating rectal cancer. However, in patients with obesity, prostate hypertrophy, low located tumor or/and pelvic stenosis, the traditional laparoscopic or open surgery is not easy to conduct. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Chinese Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision Registry Collaborative: A Nationwide Registry Study
Total mesorectal excision (TME) is the gold standard procedure for treating rectal cancer. However, in patients with obesity, prostate hypertrophy, low located tumor or/and pelvic stenosis, the traditional laparoscopic or open surgery is not easy to conduct. Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) might serve as a better procedure for these patients, for it might ease the dissection of the low mesorectum. So far, several studies have showed the promising results of TaTME, but the multi-center data in China is still lacking. This nationwide registry study included more than 30 Chinese hospitals, aiming at obtaining data on the safety and efficacy of this procedure in Chinese patients with rectal cancer and encouraging future research in this field.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Positive rate of circumferential resection margin (CRM) of the specimens
Circumferential resection margin (CRM) is the distance between the deepest point of tumor in the primary cancer and the margin of resection in the retroperitoneum or mesentery by pathological examination. CRM 0-1mm is defined as positive, while >1mm is negative.
Measured: 10 days after surgery
The grade score of the specimens integrity
shows the quality of the specimens: grade 1 is bad gross specimen which means incomplete mesorectum and pelvic fascia, and muscle layer can be see >5mm; grade 3 is high quality gross specimen, which means the specimen is cylindrical, mesorectum and pelvic fascia are complete; grade 2 is between 1and 3.
Measured: 10 days after surgery
Secondary outcomes (6)
local recurrence rate
show the oncological efficacy by 3-year follow-up according to the NCCN guideline. Participants should report every follow-up examinations which prove tumor recurrence and/or metastasis or not.
Measured: 3 years after surgery
disease free survival rate
show the oncological efficacy by 3-year follow-up according to the NCCN guideline. Participants should report every follow-up examinations which prove tumor recurrence and/or metastasis or not.
Measured: 3-year after surgery
overall survival rate
show the oncological efficacy by 3-year follow-up according to the NCCN guideline. Participants should report every follow-up examinations which prove tumor recurrence and/or metastasis or not.
Measured: 3-year after surgery
the incidence of postoperative complications
the incidence of postoperative complications after transanal total mesorectal excision.
Measured: 30 days after surgery
the severity of postoperative complication assessed by Clavien Dindo grade
the severity of postoperative complication after transanal total mesorectal assessed by Clavien Dindo grade
Measured: 30 days after surgery
the grade of anastomotic leakage
the grade of anastomotic leakage for patients who develop anastomotic leakage after transanal total mesorectal excision assessed by the grading system proposed by International Study Group of Rectal Cancer (ISREC).
Measured: 30 days after surgery

Clinical summary

So far, several studies have showed the promising results of TaTME, but the multi-center data in China is still lacking. This nationwide registry study included more than 30 Chinese hospitals, aiming at obtaining data on the safety and efficacy of this procedure in Chinese patients with rectal cancer and encouraging future research in this field.

What does the primary outcome measure?
Positive rate of circumferential resection margin (CRM) of the specimens (time frame: 10 days after surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03416699, 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?
