About this study

Official title: Adjuvant Chemotherapy Versus Observation in Stage II Colon Cancer Patients With High-Risk Factors and High-Immunoscore®

  • Benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy after curative surgery for stage II Colon Cancer is still debated. Several high-risk features may help to stratify stage II cancer patients into groups that will truly benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. However, those factors are rather subjective, and no specific trial has been designed to answer the high-risk stage II colon cancer question directly.
  • Immunoscore® Colon, an in vitro diagnostic test, which quantifies the density of CD3+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte populations in the center the tumor (CT) and its invasive margin (IM) using immunohistochemistry and automated image analysis. Immunoscore® has been extensively validated as a prognostic biomarker in early stage CC patients. This unique diagnostic assay measuring host immune response at the tumor site may inform the decision to administer adjuvant chemotherapy in resected Stage II and III CC patients.
  • This randomized trial is studying how observation compares to adjuvant chemotherapy (investigator's choice) in stage II colon cancer patients with high-risk features and High-Immunoscore®. The trial would represent a unique opportunity to classify stage II CC patients based on their tumor microenvironment with the aim to provide efficient patient stratification to improve clinical care.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease Free Survival (DFS)

    To evaluate the noninferiority of observation as compared to standard of care adjuvant chemotherapy (investigator's choice) in patients with high-risk stage II CC and High-Immunoscore® in terms of disease free survival (DFS).

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Time to Recurrence (TTR)

    To evaluate the noninferiority of observation as compared to standard of care adjuvant chemotherapy (investigator's choice) in patients with high-risk stage II CC and High-Immunoscore® in terms of Time To Recurrence (TTR)

    Measured: From date of enrollment until the date of recurrence,assessed 1year,3years and 5years after therapy

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    To evaluate the noninferiority of observation as compared to standard of care adjuvant chemotherapy (investigator's choice) in patients with high-risk stage II CC and High-Immunoscore® in terms of overall survival (OS)

    Measured: From date of enrollment until the date of death,assessed 1year,3years and 5years after therapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing FOLFOX/XELOX/Capecitabine in people with Stage II Colon Cancer and Adjuvant Chemotherapy, run by Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine.

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 9 inclusion and 8 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 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 qi li, MD,PhD (+8613818207333, Leeqi2001@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease Free Survival (DFS) (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 NCT04303429, which also lists 10 linked publications.

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 Apr 2020.
