About this study

Official title: Prospective Evaluation of Psychological, Psychophysical and Epigenetic Determinants of Chronic Pain After Cytoreductive - Hyperthermic Intraoperative Chemotherapy in Adult Patients

This study learns if depression, anxiety, and catastrophizing (thought patterns that prompt people to expect the worst) are associated with chronic pain after surgery among patients who are scheduled to have cytoreductive surgery with intraoperative hyperthermic chemotherapy. Information from this study may improve the understanding of persistent and chronic postsurgical pain integrating multiple layers of biological and behavioral sciences.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To evaluate the association of preoperative psychological risk factors (depression, anxiety or catastrophizing) with the development of chronic postsurgical pain after cytoreductive surgery with intraoperative hyperthermic chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the association of preoperative psychological risk factors (depression, anxiety or catastrophizing) with the development of persistent postsurgical pain after CRS-HIPEC.

II. To evaluate the association between preoperative abnormal sensory disturbances and chronic postsurgical pain after CRS-HIPEC.

III. To assess the association of blood micro ribonucleic acids (RNAs) signatures with the development of chronic postsurgical pain after CRS-HIPEC.

IV. To determine the rate of and factors associated with persistent and chronic opioid use after CRS-HIPEC.

  1. To determine the rate of persistent and chronic postsurgical anxiety and depression.

VI. To investigate changes in psychological risk factors (depression, anxiety or catastrophizing) and sensory disturbances after CRS-HIPEC overtime.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To explore the impact of perioperative (in-patient) opioid use, non-opioid analgesic use and anesthetics on the development of persistent and chronic opioid use after CRS-HIPEC.

OUTLINE:

Patients complete questionnaires over 15 minutes and undergo pain assessments prior to surgery and at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery. Patients also undergo blood sample collection before surgery and optionally at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Chronic postsurgical pain

    Defined as pain that develops or increases in intensity compared to preoperative after cyotreductive surgery with intraoperative hyperthermic chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC), lasts for more than 6 months.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Appendix Carcinoma and Carcinomatosis, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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 4 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 13 Feb 2024. 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 United States. 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?

Chronic postsurgical pain (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). 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 13 Feb 2024.
