About this study

Anal canal cell carcinoma is a very rare cancer but well treated. If the morphological test are well established in the initial evaluation, it's not the case of the follow up evaluation particularly by MRI.About 1/3 of patient decline with metastatic relapse during the follow up of these patients.It appears that clinical regression seen precociously is a predictive factor of survival without relapse. But there 's no study confirming that point.

This context takes us to evaluate if there is a predictive factor in MRI to final clinical result.

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?

Distance with regard to the anal margin (time frame: maximum of 6 years after the initial MRI). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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?
