Trial summary

Chemoresistance remains an obstacle in treating people with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Studying samples of blood and tumor tissue in the laboratory from patients with mCRC receiving chemotherapy may help doctors understand the effect of chemotherapy on biomarkers.

About this study

Official title: A Study to Characterize and Evaluate Biomarkers of Chemotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer In The First-line Setting

Chemoresistance remains an obstacle in treating people with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Studying samples of blood and tumor tissue in the laboratory from patients with mCRC receiving chemotherapy may help doctors understand the effect of chemotherapy on biomarkers. It may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment. In this study, we aimed to evaluate biomarkers in chemotherapy regimens for first-line chemotherapy for mCRC.

Being tested
fluorouracil

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metastatic Colorectal Cancer and Chemotherapy Effect, 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?

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 22 May 2018. 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?

Objective Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: 2 months). 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 22 May 2018.
