Trial summary

This is a retrospective cohort study that aims to evaluate the correlation of magnetic resonance tumour regression grade (mrTRG) and pathological TRG (pTRG) of locally advanced rectal cancer after neoadjuvant long course chemoradiotherapy as well as the prognostic value of mrTRG on survival.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • neoadjuvant long course chemoradiotherapyRadiation

    neoadjuvant long course chemoradiotherapy consist of radiosensitizing 5FU or capecitabine and 50.4 Gy in 28 fractions over 5 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rectal Cancer and Oncology, run by Singapore General Hospital.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Correlation between mrTRG and pTRG (time frame: Between 1 Jan 2011 to 31 Dec 2016). 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 7 Nov 2022.
