Trial summary

Carcinoid tumors are rare neuroendocrine tumors with slowly progressive course. Carcinoid tumors are the most common gastrointestinal (GI) neuroendocrine tumors. The most common sites of GI carcinoids are small intestine accounting for 45%, rectum (20%), appendix (17%), colon (11%), and stomach (7%). Read more about this study

About this study

Carcinoid tumors are rare neuroendocrine tumors with slowly progressive course. Carcinoid tumors are the most common gastrointestinal (GI) neuroendocrine tumors. The most common sites of GI carcinoids are small intestine accounting for 45%, rectum (20%), appendix (17%), colon (11%), and stomach (7%). Some studies reported an association between neuroendocrine tumors and multiple malignancies. However, the presence of neuroendocrine tumors combined with multiple primary GI tumors is considered an exotic event in the literature with only few case studies and case series. So the aim of this study is to assess the risk of GI malignancies following primary GI carcinoids.

What is being measured

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

  1. The standardized incidence ratio and excess risk of second primary gastrointestinal malignancies following primary gastrointestinal carcinoid tumors

    The surveillance, epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database was used to calculate the standardized incidence ratio (SIR) as Observed/Expected (O/E) and calculated the excess risk for second primary gastrointestinal malignancies following primary gastrointestinal carcinoid tumors

    Measured: Jan, 2000 till Dec, 2022

  2. The standardized incidence ratio and excess risk of gastrointestinal second primary malignancies stratified according to the primary gastrointestinal carcinoids site.

    Measured: from Jan, 2000 till Dec, 2022

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Carcinoid Tumor and Second Primary Malignant Neoplasm, run by Suez Canal 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 2 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 18 Dec 2025. 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?

The standardized incidence ratio and excess risk of second primary gastrointestinal malignancies following primary gastrointestinal carcinoid tumors (time frame: Jan, 2000 till Dec, 2022). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 Dec 2025.
