Trial summary

Due to colorectal cancer is the fourth most common malignancy in the world. Some patients had present locally advance stage and need to preoperative concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) before radical surgery.

About this study

Due to colorectal cancer is the fourth most common malignancy in the world. Some patients had present locally advance stage and need to preoperative concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) before radical surgery. But predictor for pathologic complete response (pCR) after preoperative CCRT remain unclear.

Objectives: To identify possible factor for predict of pCR of rectal cancer after preoperative CCRT.

Read the detailed description

After permission was obtained from our institutional review board, a cohort of patients who were diagnosed with rectal cancer and received chemoradiation between January 2011 to December 2017 at Ramathibodi hospital, Bangkok were analyzed. Patients who were not received neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy, loss follow-up, incomplete data in the record, distant organ metastasis and who was not received colorectal surgery were excluded as study flow diagram. Age, sex, performance status, smoking, initial Hb level (g/mL), CEA level (ng/dL), distance of tumor from anal verge, diagnostic variables, clinical T staging, preoperative thickness and length from computer tomography scan (CT scan), organ metastasis before treatment, histology, treatment course, and outcomes after treatment were collected and analyzed.Total dose of radiation, interval time from CCRT to operation, and chemotherapy regimens were also collected between and after treatment. After preoperative CCRT, the radical rectal surgery was performed by eight experienced general surgeons and surgical oncologist using open and laparoscopic techniques. Perioperative data were collected and histology was evaluated by an experienced pathologists. For pathological classification, pathological responses were divided in 2 groups i.e., pathologic complete response (pCR group) and non-pCR group, (partial response, stable disease, and disease progression). Margin of lesions were classified as proximal, distal and circumferential margins. Lymph nodes status after surgery were specified as total lymph nodes harvested and positive lymph nodes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rectum Cancer, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

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 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Stage (time frame: 1 month). 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 20 May 2022.
