About this study

Official title: Comparison of Short- and Long Term Clinical Outcomes of Patients With Stage IV Chronic Limb-threatening Ischemia and Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases

Colorectal cancer (CRC) and chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) are relatively frequent and potentially fatal diseases. However, studies that are comparing clinical outcomes between CRC and CLTI patients in more advanced stages of the disease are lacking. The study aim was to evaluate outcomes of patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) treated by curative-intent liver resection and CLTI patients according to wound, ischemia, foot infection (WIfI) classification by comparing the short- and long-term clinical outcomes.

Read the detailed description

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is characterized by a global pandemic of growing proportions. In 2016, The Global Burden of Disease study reported that 202 million adults worldwide have PAD, with a higher prevalence compared to ischaemic heart disease (154 million), Alzheimer's disease (64 million) and cancer (43 million). The patient prognosis after PAD occurrence is poor because the disease often progresses to chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) that is an end-stage disease.

The 5-year mortality risk in CLTI patients is about 60%. When the mortality risk of CLTI is compared to mortality rates of the most common malignant diseases only six of them have a higher 5-year mortality rate compared to CLTI. One of them is colorectal cancer (CRC). CRC is the third most commonly occurring cancer in men and the second most commonly occurring cancer in women.

According to the latest CLTI treatment guidelines, the Society for Vascular Surgery (SVS) WIfI (wound, infection, ischemia) classification should be employed to stage limb condition in patients with CLTI that is analog to the use of tumor, nodes, metastases (TNM) cancer staging system. Recent data indicate that WIfI appears to correlate strongly with important clinical outcomes.

The annual incidence of CLTI is greater than the incidence of cancers characterized by high mortality rates (esophageal, stomach, brain and ovarian). In addition, more people die from CLTI each year compared to death rates of the already mentioned cancers. However, studies that are comparing clinical outcomes between cancer and CLTI patients in more advanced stages of the disease are lacking.

The study aim was to evaluate outcomes of the wound, ischemia, foot infection (WIfI) stage IV CLTI and colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) patients managed by curative-intent liver resection by comparing the short- and long-term clinical outcomes.

What is being measured

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

  1. All-cause mortality

    Number of participants who died from all causes of death in both chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) and colorectal liver metastasis (CLRM) population in a given time period

    Measured: up to 60 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Short-term mortality

    Number of participants for both chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) and colorectal liver metastasis (CLRM) population who died in hospital, as well as 30 days after the initial surgery

    Measured: During the hospital stay (up to 30-days) and 30-day after the initial surgery

  2. Hospital adverse event

    Number of participants with the following postoperative adverse events: cardiac (acute coronary syndrome, heart failure, pulmonary embolism), pulmonary (intubation lasting longer than 72h, pneumonia, atelectasis requiring active treatment), hemodialysis, wound infection, postoperative surgical bleeding, red blood cell transfusion rate, hepatic insufficiency, biliary fistula, major amputation.

    Measured: During the patients hospital stay (up to 30-days)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia and Colorectal Carcinoma, run by Clinical Centre of Serbia at 1 site in Serbia.

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 11 Nov 2021. 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 Serbia. 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?

All-cause mortality (time frame: up to 60 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 11 Nov 2021.
