About this study

Official title: Analysis of the Prognostic Impact of Laparoscopic Surgery in Patients With Systemic Obesity and Colorectal Malignant Tumors

The goal of this observational study is to compare laparoscopic and open surgery outcomes in colorectal cancer patients with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 . The main question[s] it aims to answer are:

  1. the short-term outcome and postoperative outcomes of patients treated with open group versus laparoscopy group
  2. the long-term oncologic outcome of patients treated with open group versus laparoscopy group

This study is a retrospective and observational study. Subjects were not be given or offered any treatment during the study. The investigator reviewed the patient's medical history and examination report to determine eligibility based on inclusion and exclusion criteria.

If there is a comparison group: Researchers compared the open group and laparoscopy group to see if the laparoscopic group have better short-term outcomes with comparable oncologic outcomes to the open group.

Read the detailed description

This study is a retrospective and observational study. Subjects were not be given or offered any treatment during the study. The investigator reviewed the patient's medical history and examination report to determine eligibility based on inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Given the uncertainty regarding the long-term outcomes of laparoscopy in obese patients with CRC, this study aimed to analyse a decade of data comparing laparoscopic and open surgery outcomes in patients with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 who had undergone treatment for CRC at the Linkou Chang Gung Hospital.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Cancer and Obesity, run by Chang Gung Memorial 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 1 inclusion and 2 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 24 Jan 2024. 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?

Short-term outcome (time frame: 2009 to 2019). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06221878, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 24 Jan 2024.
