About this study

Official title: Pelvic Floor Reconstruction (PR) in Endoscopic Low Anterior Resection for Rectal Cancer

The anastomotic leakage remains the major early complication after laparoscopic anterior resection(LAR) for medium \& low rectal cancer. Pelvic floor reconstruction (PR) is a key step in various standard resections for open radical rectal cancer surgery, which was considered to be helpful for decreasing the rate of leakage. However, PR in endoscopic LAR surgery is not routine practice and remains controversial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of PR during LAR for mid/low rectal carcinoma, especially in preventing anastomotic leakage.

Read the detailed description

Eligible patients with rectal cancer will be randomly assigned to group with pelvic floor reconstruction(PR) versus group without pelvic floor reconstruction(NPR).

We want to investigate the rate of anastomotic leakage and re-operation between the two groups, some other relevant outcomes will be concerned all the same.

What is being measured

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

  1. The rate of anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic anterior resection for rectal cancer

    Measured: 30 days after surgery

  2. Re-operation rate after anastomotic leakage

    Measured: 30 days after surgery

  3. The rate of general complications

    Measured: 30 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Operative time

    Measured: Operation day

  2. Postoperative hospital stay

    Measured: 1 year after surgery

  3. Incidence of defecation dysfunction

    Measured: From the date of operation until the date of complication,assessed up to 3 years

  4. 3-year local recurrence rate

    Measured: From date of operation until the date of local-recurrence (up to 3 years)

  5. 5-year disease-free survival

    Measured: From date of operation until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 5 years

  6. Postoperative quality of life as assessed by EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire

    Measured: 1 year after operation

  7. Blood loss

    Measured: Operation day

  8. White blood cells(WBC) ,C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) count in the blood sample

    Measured: 1 days after surgery

  9. White blood cells(WBC) ,C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) count in the blood sample

    Measured: 3 days after surgery

  10. White blood cells(WBC) ,C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) count in the blood sample

    Measured: 5 days after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pelvic floor Reconstruction in people with Rectal Carcinoma, run by Southwest Hospital, China 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 7 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 30 Nov 2021. 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 Tang Bo, MD (+862368754167, tangtbo@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The rate of anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic anterior resection for rectal cancer (time frame: 30 days after surgery). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Nov 2021.
