About this study

Official title: Predicting Pathological Complete Response of Rectal Cancer to Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy With MR Radiomics Method

This study plans to construct a MR radiomics model for predicting pathological complete response(pCR) to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy(CRT) in locally advanced rectal cancer(LARC) patients.

Read the detailed description

We propose to develop and validate a radiomics model for individualized pCR evaluation after CRT in patients with LARC. We plan to use both pre- and post-CRT MRI data to construct the predictive radiomics model for evaluating if LARC patients achieve pCR after CRT. The ultimate aim is to select appropriate LARC patients for omission of surgery.

Being tested
pelvic MR examination

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • pelvic MR examinationDiagnostic test

    All patients will take pelvic MR examination within 1 week before CRT and within 1 week before surgery.Pre- and post-CRT MRI examinations will be performed using a 3.0 T unit (Discovery 750) using an 8-channel phased array body coil in the supine position. To reduce colonic motility, 20mg of scopolamine butylbromide will be injected intramuscularly 30 min before MRI.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pathological complete response(pCR)

    Pathological complete response was defined as the absence of viable tumor cells in the primary tumor and lymph nodes.

    Measured: within one week after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer, run by Sun Ying-Shi 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 6 inclusion and 5 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 4 Feb 2019. 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?

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?

Pathological complete response(pCR) (time frame: within one week after surgery). 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 4 Feb 2019.
