About this study

Official title: Palliative Primary Tumor Resection in Minimally Symptomatic Patients With Colorectal Cancer and Synchronous Unresectable Metastases Versus Chemotherapy Alone

Currently, the question remains whether palliative primary tumor resection could improve overall survival of minimally symptomatic patients with colorectal cancer and synchronous unresectable metastases. The aim of this study is to determine if there is an improvement in overall survival of palliative primary tumor resection followed by chemotherapy in minimally symptomatic patients with colorectal cancer and synchronous unresectable metastases compared to those of upfront chemotherapy/radiotherapy alone.

Read the detailed description

The present study is a single-center retrospective observational cohort study with a propensity score matching. Between 2016 and 2022 from our institutional database minimally symptomatic patients with colorectal cancer and synchronous unresectable metastases will be selected. Patients will be divided into two groups:

  1. Surgical resection of the primary tumour before to systemic therapy
  2. Systemic therapy without previous resection of the primary tumour. Propensity score matching (PSM) will be performed, to minimize the selection bias by adjusting variables that may affect the survival of patients. Categorical variables will be compared using the chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. Continuous variables will be compared using the Student's t-test or Mann-Whitney U test. Survival rate will be determined by using Kaplan-Meier analysis with a log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate analyses for survival will be conducted using Cox proportional hazard models. Statistical results will be considered significant at p values less than 0.05.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall survival

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Thirty-day mortality

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Rate of surgical intervention due to complication of treatment

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Progression free survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time interval between the date of diagnosis and the first date of progression of the metastatic disease or death in both treatment arms.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Neoplasms and Intestinal Neoplasms, run by State Scientific Centre of Coloproctology, Russian Federation at 1 site in Russia.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 11 Apr 2022. 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 Russia. 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 Iuliia Alimova, MD (+7 (916) 868-80-25, doctoralimova@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival (time frame: 3 years). 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 11 Apr 2022.
