About this study

Official title: Safety and Effectiveness of Laparoscopic Colorectal Resection in Elderly Patients With Colorectal Cancer

This is a nested cohort study of OAMBP-01. Patients over 70 years old were enrolled into the data-analysis.

The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic colorectal resection in elderly patients from a single center, and to explore if there are advantages in laparoscopic surgery.

Read the detailed description

Surgical resection remains the primary treatment for CRC. Despite advancements in surgical techniques, treating elderly cancer patients remains challenging for surgeons. Perioperative risk increases as elderly patients are susceptible to cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. In addition, it has been demonstrated that elderly individuals come with more locally advanced tumor and are more likely to have obstructive or disseminated disease at the time of presentation. In addition, aging diminishes a person's physiological capacity to withstand a major operation. Therefore, surgeons preferred to choose laparotomic colorectal resection to reduce surgical duration and morbidity..

The benefits of laparoscopic colorectal resections over laparotomic surgery have been clearly demonstrated in the general population. However, previous clinical trials comparing surgical approach between laparoscopy and laparotomy restricted the patient's age <75 years, we have limited information on short- and long-term safety and efficacy of elderly patients underwent laparoscopic colorectal resection.

The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic colorectal resection in elderly patients from a single center, and to explore if there are advantages in laparoscopic surgery.

This is a nested cohort study of OAMBP-01. Patients over 70 years old were enrolled into the data-analysis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Cancer, run by Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University at 1 site in China.

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

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2023. 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 China. 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?

perioperative complications (time frame: 42 days after surgery). 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 5 Apr 2023.
