Trial summary

A retrospective cohort of 286 patients with synchronous CRLM underwent conversion therapies based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) results. All cases were categorized into a successful conversion therapy group (SCTG) if they achieved no evidence of disease (NED) status through surgery after conversion therapy, and… Read more about this study

Study population: In this study, after excluding patients who could not complete the entire treatment regimen or did not meet the inclusion criteria, a total of 286 patients were initially diagnosed with colorectal cancer with synchronous liver metastasis, all with an initial treatment goal of No Evidence of Disease (NED). Preoperative conversion therapy was administered based on NGS results. Eventually, 106 patients achieved successful conversion (SCTG) and underwent resection or ablation of the primary and metastatic lesions, attaining NED status. Meanwhile, 180 patients, after first-line treatment, were confirmed by MDT to have unresectable metastases and were classified as the Failed Conversion Therapy Group (FCTG).

Who may be able to join

  • At diagnosis, all patients met the criteria for preoperative conversion therapy, with a Cancer Recurrence Score (CRS) of ≥3

Who cannot join

  • Patients were excluded if they: i) could not tolerate a full course of systemic therapy; ii) had a history of other malignancies; iii) had previously undergone cancer treatment; or iv) Patients who were not rendered disease-free at time of hepatic resection (i.e., primary intact, unresected extrahepatic disease, or gross [R2] residual hepatic disease) were excluded.

About this study

Official title: Diverse Genomic Signatures Predict Resection Conversion and Survival Outcomes in Patients With Initially Unresectable Colorectal Liver Metastases

A retrospective cohort of 286 patients with synchronous CRLM underwent conversion therapies based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) results. All cases were categorized into a successful conversion therapy group (SCTG) if they achieved no evidence of disease (NED) status through surgery after conversion therapy, and a failed conversion therapy group (FCTG) otherwise. Clinical risk factors and genomic mutations were analyzed for association with conversion therapy outcomes and survival.

Read the detailed description

All procedures involving human participants in this study adhered to ethical standards set by institutional and/or national research committees, as well as the 1964 Helsinki Declaration and its later amendments or similar ethical standards. This cohort study has been reported in line with the STROCSS criteria.

This study enrolled 286 patients initially diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC) concomitant with synchronous liver metastases. All patients received comprehensive treatment and follow-up at the Department of Colorectal Surgery, First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between 2016 and 2018. At diagnosis, all patients met the criteria for preoperative conversion therapy, with a Cancer Recurrence Score (CRS) of ≥3. Patients were excluded if they: i) could not tolerate a full course of systemic therapy; ii) had a history of other malignancies; iii) had previously undergone cancer treatment; or iv) Patients who were not rendered disease-free at time of hepatic resection (i.e., primary intact, unresected extrahepatic disease, or gross [R2] residual hepatic disease) were excluded. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was conducted on biopsy tissues obtained via colonoscopy prior to treatment initiation, and conversion therapies were subsequently administered. Systemic treatment regimens, based on NGS results, included FOLFOX/FOLFIRI or FOLFOXIRI combined with anti-EGFR or anti-VEGF agents, excluding those who received Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT) or Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT). All patients were microsatellite stable (MSS) and did not receive any immune checkpoint therapies such as PD-1 inhibitors. Patients with locally advanced rectal cancer received additional neoadjuvant radiotherapy to the rectal area. Treatment response was assessed every two cycles, and resectability of the primary tumor and metastases were evaluated post-treatment using abdominal contrast-enhanced CT and MRI.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Genomic Instability and Prognostic Cancer Model, run by The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University.

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.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jun 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?

Overall survival (time frame: 5 year). 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 27 Jun 2024.
