Trial summary

Developement of a clinical and biological database in colon cancer and colic tumors in order to better understand tumor invasion and metastatic scattering processes. The investigators hope that a better understanding of tumoral invasion process will lead to the discovery of new biomarkers and new drugs. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prospective, Multicenter, Clinical and Biological Database Set-up in Colon Cancer and Colic Tumors

Developement of a clinical and biological database in colon cancer and colic tumors in order to better understand tumor invasion and metastatic scattering processes. The investigators hope that a better understanding of tumoral invasion process will lead to the discovery of new biomarkers and new drugs.

Read the detailed description

As the second leading cause of cancer-related death in France, colorectal cancer is a major public health problem. Each year, 37 000 cases are newly diagnosed in France and 17 000 patients die of the disease.

Colorectal cancer is due to molecular and genetic damages involved in all tumorigenesis steps, transition from healthy tissue to adenoma and finally to invasive carcinoma stage. The investigators hope that a to better understand tumor invasion and metastatic scattering processes will allow therapeutic innovation and the emergence of new biomarkers.

However, the study of early tumorigenesis phases as well as advanced stages of the disease is currently limited due to a lack of tissue samples.

In this context, the Montpellier Cancer Institute (ICM) decided to initiate a biological collection dedicated to the tissular and blood samples of patients with colorectal cancer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Biological collection in people with Cancer Colon, run by Institut du Cancer de Montpellier - Val d'Aurelle 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 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Feb 2025. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Aurore MOUSSION (4 67 61 31 02 ext. + 33, DRCI-icm105@icm.unicancer.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of clinical risk factors for colorectal cancer (time frame: Until the study completion : 6 years). 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?
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 12 Feb 2025.
