About this study

Official title: Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) Guided Ultrafractionated Radiotherapy and Systemic Treatment in Elderly or Frail Patients with Inoperable Localized Colorectal Cancer

This is a prospective, multicentre, cohort study. For cohort 1, experimental cohort, older or Frail patients with inoperable localized colorectal cancer will receive Ultrafractionated Radiotherapy (RT) and Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) Guided systemic treatment. All patients will receive Ultrafractionated RT and PD-1 antibody. Furthermore, CGA will assess all patients and classify them into Frail, Vulnerabe, or Fit. Frail patients will receive Best Supportive Care (BSC); Vulnerabe patients will receive Fluorouracil/Raltitrexed and BSC; Fit patients will receive Fluorouracil/Raltitrexed, Oxaliplatin/Irinotecan, and BSC.

For cohort 2, external control from real word, data of patients with the same baseline characteristics from the same period and the same institute will be prospectively collected.

The primary endpoint is complete response (CR, pathological complete response [pCR] plus clinical complete response [cCR]) rate. The secondary endpoints include the grade 3-4 acute adverse effects rate, anal preservation rate, survival etc.

What is being measured

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

  1. Complete response (CR) rate

    Rate of complete response (CR), including the rate of pathologic complete response (pCR) after surgery and the rate of clinical complete response (cCR) with Watch \& Wait (W\&W) strategy.

    Measured: 1 month after the surgery or the decision of W&W

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Grade 3-4 adverse effects rate

    Rate of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy related adverse events

    Measured: From date of randomization until 3 months after the completion neoadjuvant therapy

  2. 1 year anal preservation rate

    1 year anal preservation rate

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months.

  3. health-related quality of life (HRQOL)

    HRQOL assessed with validated European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ) ColoRectal cancer (CR) with 29 items (C29) and with 30 items (C30). Multiple measurements and scores will be aggregated to arrive at one reported value. Scores at different time points after randomization will be compared to baseline scores.

    Measured: baseline, and at 3, 6 and 12 months.

  4. 1 year disease free survival rate

    Rate of 1 year disease free survival

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months.

  5. 1 year local recurrence free survival rate

    Rate of 1 year local recurrence free survival

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of first documented pelvic failure, assessed up to 12 months.

  6. 1 year Disease-specific survival rate

    rate of 1 year Disease-specific survival

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of death from the specific disease, assessed up to 12 months.

  7. 1 year overall survival rate

    Rate of 1 year overall survival

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 12 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ultrafractionated RT and CGA Guided systemic treatment., data prospectively collected and Ultrafractionated Radiotherapy in people with Colon Cancer and Rectal Cancer, run by Fudan 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 11 inclusion and 8 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 28 Oct 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Zhen ZHANG Principal Investigator (18801735029, zhen_zhang@fudan.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complete response (CR) rate (time frame: 1 month after the surgery or the decision of W&W). 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 28 Oct 2024.
