About this study

Official title: Quality of Life and Function of Patients After Hemipelvectomy

This study aims to determine the functional outcomes of patients who underwent internal hemipelvectomy with or without reconstruction or external hemipelvectomy for pelvic tumors. Learning about the outcomes of these patients may help researchers determine the long-term effects of different types of hemipelvectomy procedures and may help improve quality of life.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To determine functions of patients who underwent internal hemipelvectomy with or without reconstruction or have had an external hemipelvectomy.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine factors that influence the functional outcomes of these patients following surgery.

II. Assess sexual and urinary function in patients who have undergone internal or external hemipelvectomy.

III. Determine whether type of surgery influences long-term sexual and urinary function.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo physical performance assessments and complete quality of life assessments and questionnaires pre-hemipelvectomy, at 6 weeks post-hemipelvectomy, and then every 3 months up to 12 months and yearly thereafter for 10 years. Patients who are 1 year out from surgery complete pain-related questionnaires once. Patients who have already undergone hemipelvectomy prior to enrollment undergo medical record review.

Being tested
Electronic Health Record Review, Physical Performance Testing, Quality-of-Life Assessment, Questionnaire Administration

What is being measured

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

  1. Functions of patients who underwent internal hemipelvectomy with or without reconstruction or have had an external hemipelvectomy

    All continuous variables including the scoring systems will be described as mean with standard deviation or median with range. Frequencies and percentages will be obtained for all categorical variables. Pediatric participants' data measures will be collected and analyzed separately from the adult populations.

    Measured: Through study completion, average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Malignant Primary Pelvic Neoplasm, 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 1 inclusion and 1 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Sep 2026. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Valerae O Lewis (713-792-5073, volewis@mdanderson.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Functions of patients who underwent internal hemipelvectomy with or without reconstruction or have had an external hemipelvectomy (time frame: Through study completion, 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 15 Sep 2026.
