About this study

Official title: A Randomized Multicenter Clinical Trial of Direct Surgical Resection Compared to Neoadjuvant Followed by Surgical Resection in Treating Patients With Operable Local Recurrent Carcinoma Of The Rectum

RATIONALE: Surgical resection and adjuvant therapy has become the main treatment for resectable local recurrent rectal cancer. However the efficacy and safety of adjuvant therapy is still unknown.

PURPOSE: This randomized multicenter clinical trial is studying surgical resection followed by chemo radiotherapy or neoadjuvant chemo radiotherapy followed by surgery and postoperative chemotherapy, comparing them to see the efficacy and safety, then to investigate the effect of adjuvant chemoradiotherapy for resectable local recurrent rectal cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Compare the 5-year survival rate in patients with resectable local recurrent rectal cancer treated with either surgical resection or neoadjuvant.

Secondary

  • Compare the side effect of chemo radiotherapy according to the Common Toxicity Criteria(CTC) version 2.0 in patients treated with these regimens.
  • Compare the postoperative complications in patients treated with these regimens.
  • Compare the recurrent rate in patients treated with these regimens.
  • Compare the distant metastatic rate in patients treated with these regimens.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter clinical trial. Patients are stratified according to participating center, gender, age. Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients receive surgical resection and undergo FOLFIRI for 12 cycles, from 2-4 weeks after operation. Patients undergo radiotherapy once daily 5 days a week for 5-6 weeks, from 8-12 weeks after operation.
  • Arm II: Patients receive neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (mFOLFIRI for 5 cycles and undergo radiotherapy as in arm I from the second cycle of FOLFIRI), surgery and FOLFORI for 7 cycles from 2-4 weeks after operation.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months for at least 3 years.

The side effect of chemo radiotherapy, postoperative complications, recurrent rate, distant metastatic rate and 5-year survival rate will be investigated.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 360 patients will be accrued for this study within 5 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing surgical resection and adjuvant therapy and Neoadjuvant followed by operation in people with Rectal Cancer, run by 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 19 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jan 2011. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Ping Lan, M.D. (008613710316769, lpzm@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

5-year disease free survival (time frame: 5 years). 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 6 Jan 2011.
