About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Preoperative (Chemo)Radiotherapy for Locally Recurrent Rectal Cancer: A Prospective, Single-arm Observational Study

Through an observational study, the efficacy and safety of preoperative chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery in patients with recurrent rectal cancer were assessed. The primary population included patients with (potentially) resectable locally recurrent rectal cancer, excluding those with distant metastases. The study design was a prospective, open-label, single-arm observational study. The primary endpoint was the pCR (pathological complete response) rate, while secondary endpoints included R0 resection rate, local recurrence-free survival, overall survival, and safety.

What is being measured

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

  1. pathologic complete response

    The resected tumor tissue and regional lymph nodes were pathologically assessed, revealing no residual tumor cells. The tumor lesions had completely disappeared, and no new lesions were detected.

    Measured: up to 26 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. R0 rates

    The complete tumor resection rate is defined as the absence of cancer cells at the resection margins under a microscope, with no visible or microscopic residual cancer cells, indicating that the lesion has been entirely removed.

    Measured: up to 26 weeks

  2. progression-free survival

    The interval between the start of enrollment and local recurrence, progression of local recurrence, distant metastasis, or death.

    Measured: 5 years

  3. overall survival

    The interval between the start of enrollment and death.

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Locally Recurrent Rectal Cancer and Preoperative Chemoradiotherapy, run by Sixth 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 11 inclusion and 12 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact YI-KAN CHENG Yi-kan Cheng (15102033641, chengyk3@mail.sysu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

pathologic complete response (time frame: up to 26 weeks). 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 Sep 2024.
