About this study

Official title: Randomized Single Center Clinical Trial Comparing Loop Ileostomy Versus Loop Transverse Colostomy in Patients After Major Anterior Resections

The purpose of this study is to determine which stoma creation technique is preferable after low anterior resection of the rectum.

Read the detailed description

The investigators enroll patients with a histologically confirmed diagnosis of primary rectal cancer with or without prior chemoradiotherapy who were hospitalized at the Ufa Republican Clinical Oncology Center from February 2023 to February 2024.

All patients undergo planned laparoscopic or open low-anterior resection of the rectum with total mesorectal excision. Patients are randomized into 2 groups in a 1:1 ratio. In the first group, a loop transverse colostomy is created, and in the second group, a loop ileostomy is created. The stoma exit sites are marked in advance the day before the surgery. The bowels are prepared by mechanical means (a polyethylene glycol-based laxative with a cleansing enema) according to a standard procedure before the surgery. Standardized stoma creation techniques are used. The resected parts are collected through a separate access. Patients are followed up for 60 days after surgery.

The sample size should be 124 patients to reach statistical significance (α = 0.05, study power 80%, confidence interval (CI) = 95%.). Considering possible losses during the study, the number of patients was increased to 130.

The investigators hypothesis is that the loop ileostomy group has a 20% higher incidence of stoma dysfunction but a 20% lower incidence of SSI (stoma site infections) compared to the loop colostomy group.

What participants receive

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

  • Laparoscopic or open low-anterior resection of the rectum with TME and created loop transverse colostomyProcedure or surgery

    The loop transverse colostomy is matured without torsion using a plastic retainer. The stoma protrudes 2-3 cm. The loop of the transverse colon is sutured with interrupted sutures using an absorbable 3/0 polyglactin suture without piercing the intestinal wall. The intestinal lumen is opened through a transverse incision on the antimesenteric border.

  • Laparoscopic or open low-anterior resection of the rectum with TME and created loop ileostomyProcedure or surgery

    The loop ileostomy is matured 25-30 cm from the ileocecal angle without torsion and without a retainer, so that stoma protrudes 2-3 cm. The loop of the ileum is sutured with interrupted sutures using an absorbable 3/0 polyglactin suture without piercing the intestinal wall. The intestinal lumen is opened through a transverse incision on the antimesenteric border.

What is being measured

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

  1. SSI

    incidence of stoma site infections

    Measured: 60 days after surgery

  2. Ileus

    incidence of stoma dysfunction

    Measured: 60 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Readmission rate

    readmission rate

    Measured: within the first 60 days after surgery

  2. Length of hospital stay

    the number of days from surgery to discharge

    Measured: From date of surgery until the date of discharge, assessed up to 60 days

  3. Time to stoma closure

    the number of days from surgery to stoma closure

    Measured: within the first 6 months days after surgery

  4. Time to first stool

    the occurrence of anything other than serous-hemorrhagic contents in the colostomy bag

    Measured: 60 days after surgery

  5. Time to adjuvant postoperative chemotherapy

    the number of days from surgery to hospitalization for first chemotherapy

    Measured: within the first 2 months days after surgery

  6. Quality of life in patients with ostomy

    estimated using EORTC QLQ-CR29

    Measured: within the first 60 days after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Laparoscopic or open low-anterior resection of the rectum with TME and created loop transverse colostomy and Laparoscopic or open low-anterior resection of the rectum with TME and created loop ileostomy in people with Rectal Neoplasms and Ostomy, run by Republican Clinical Oncological Dispensary, Ministry of Health of the Republic of Bashkortostan 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 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?

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?

SSI (time frame: 60 days after surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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.
