About this study

Official title: Impact of Sarcopenia on Post-operative Course for Cancer Patients Operated of Colorectal Surgery Using a Simple Measurement Method of the Psoas Muscle Surface Area

The purpose of this study is to compare the post-operative course in patients suffering from sarcopenia who had colorectal surgery for cancer. Our primary outcome is the comparaison of the length of hospital stay in sarcopenic and non sarcopenic patients.

Read the detailed description

Sarcopenia is the loss of muscle mass that occurs usually with aging, but it may have multiple contributing factors, especially related to chronic diseases such as colorectal cancer.

When present, sarcopenia is predictive of poor post-operative course. The identification of sarcopenia needs either the identification of low muscle strength, low muscle quantity/quality, or finally a low physical performance.

Multiple clinical, biological or radiological tools were proposed. Our purpose is to compare the post-operative outcome of sarcopenic and non sarcopenic patients using a simple, available, reproducible and rapid radiological method, which will help the healthcare professionals to rapidly identify high risk patients for possible complicated and long post-operative course allowing them to take appropriate perioperative measures to reduce the risks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of the average postoperative length of stay in sacopenic and non-sarcopenic patients

    Comparison of the number of post-operative hospital days between the two groups

    Measured: Until discharge from hospital, an average of 30 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Comparison between complication rate in sarcopenic and non sarcopenic patients

    Measurement of the complication rate according to the Clavien Dindo score (relevant score if greater than or equal to 2, considered severe complication if greater than or equal to 3) between the two groups

    Measured: At the end of the 30 post-operative days

  2. Assessment of re-hospitalization rate between sarcopenic and non sarcopenic patients

    Evaluation of the number of hospitalizations of more than 24 hours at 30 days after the operation between the two groups

    Measured: At the end of the 30 post-operative days

  3. Comparison of the transfer rate to rehabilitation or nursing home center between sarcopenic and non sarcopenic patients

    Evaluation of the number of transfer to rehabilitation or nursing home center at 30 days after the operation between the two groups

    Measured: At the end of the 30 post-operative days

  4. Comparison of the length of stay in the rehabilitation center for sarcopenic and non sarcopenic transferred patients

    Comparison of the number of hospital days for transferred patients between the two groups

    Measured: At the end of the 30 post-operative days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sarcopenia, run by Hôpital NOVO at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2024. 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 France. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

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?

Comparison of the average postoperative length of stay in sacopenic and non-sarcopenic patients (time frame: Until discharge from hospital, an average of 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 19 Sep 2024.
