About this study

Official title: Difference of Surgical Site Infection Between Using Sodium Picosulfate Solution(PicosolutionⓇ) and Oral Sulfate Tablet(ORA·FANGⓇ) in Colorectal Cancer Surgery : Phase II. Prospective, Randomised, Multicenter, Non-inferiority Trial

This is a prospective randomized study to evaluate the difference in the rate of surgical site infection between the patients who used Sodium Picosulfate solution(PicosolutionⓇ) and tablet Oral Sulphate Solution(ORA·FANGⓇ) for bowel preparation before colorectal cancer surgery .

Read the detailed description

It has been reported that tablet oral sulphate solution(ORA·FANGⓇ) showed a successful bowel cleansing rate of 95.5%, which is similar to compared to sodium picosulfate solution(PicosolutionⓇ).

In terms of the rate of surgical site infection(SSI), sodium picosulfate solution(PicosolutionⓇ) showed 8% of SSI rate. However there is no report for the SSI rate of tablet oral sulphate solution(ORA·FANGⓇ). We aimed to compare the SSI rates between these two group.

Being tested
Oral Sulfate Tablet(ORA·FANGⓇ), Sodium Picosulfate Solution(PicosolutionⓇ)

What is being measured

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

  1. The rate of surgical site infection

    The operator will evaluate the rate of the surgical site infection during the postoperative hospitalization period or the first outpatient visit after surgery. We will use the definition of surgical site infection published in 1999 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The quality of the bowel preparation

    The operator will evaluate he quality of the bowel preparation using Arohchick bowel preparation scale during the surgery.

    Aronchick scale Excellent:5, good:4, fair:3, poor:2, inadequate:1

    Measured: during surgery

  2. The patient's tolerability for bowel preparation

    Using questionnaire, the tolerance will be scored after bowel preparation

    Tolerability score Very comfortable: 5 Comfortable: 4 Fair: 3 Uncomfortable: 2 Very uncomfortable: 1

    Measured: 1 day after bowel preparation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Oral Sulfate Tablet(ORA·FANGⓇ) and Sodium Picosulfate Solution(PicosolutionⓇ) in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by National Cancer Center, Korea at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 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 20 Oct 2020. 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 South Korea. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 Sung Sil Park, Doctor (+821092865451, 51873@ncc.re.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The rate of surgical site infection (time frame: 30 days). 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 Oct 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
