  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients diagnosed with primary colorectal SRCC between 2000 and 2021 were included. Demographic characteristics extracted included race (White, Black, and other races: American Indian/Alaska Native and Asian/Pacific Islander), age (pediatrics: <18 years, young adults: 18-39 years, middle-aged: 40-64 years, elderly: ≥65 years, according to the WHO classification), marital status (married, unmarried, or unknown), and year of diagnosis. Tumor-related variables included stage (in situ, localized, regional, distant, per SEER staging definitions [19]), tumor grade (well-differentiated/grade I, moderately differentiated/grade II, poorly differentiated/grade III, undifferentiated anaplastic/grade IV, and unknown grade), and treatment-related variables (chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery).

About this study

Official title: Primary Colorectal Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma and the Risk of Multiple Primary Gastrointestinal Malignancies: a Retrospective Cohort Based on SEER Database From 2000-2021

This original research investigates the critical issue of gastrointestinal (GI) second primary malignancies (SPMs) in patients with signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC), a rare and aggressive subtype of colorectal cancer. Utilizing the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, the investigators assessed the risk of GI SPMs, particularly within 2-11 months post-SRCC diagnosis.

What is being measured

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

  1. The standardized incidence ratio of developing gastrointestinal second primary malignancies following primary colorectal signet ring cell carcinoma

    The surveillance, epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database was used to calculate the standardized incidence ratio (SIR) as Observed/Expected (O/E) for second primary gastrointestinal malignancies. Patients diagnosed with primary colorectal SRCC between 2000 and 2021 were included. The event was defined as the appearance of an SPM in a different site from the original cancer at a new GI organ (esophagus, stomach, small intestine, cecum, appendix, rectum, anus and anal canal, liver, gallbladder, intrahepatic bile duct, pancreas, retro-peritoneum, and colon).

    Measured: from Jan, 2000 till Dec, 2021

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The excess risk of developing gastrointestinal second primary malignancies following primary colorectal signet ring cell carcinoma

    The excess risk per 10,000 was calculated using SEER*stat software.

    Measured: from Jan, 2000 till Dec, 2021

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Carcinoma and Cancer, run by asmaa salama ibrahim at 1 site in Egypt.

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 2 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 18 May 2025. 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 Egypt. 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?

The standardized incidence ratio of developing gastrointestinal second primary malignancies following primary colorectal signet ring cell carcinoma (time frame: from Jan, 2000 till Dec, 2021). 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 18 May 2025.
