Trial summary

Multiple lines of evidence have shown that anesthesia method is associated with long-term outcomes in patients undergoing surgery due to cancers, including lung, breast, prostate, and bladder cancer, etc. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have been validated as prognostic biomarkers of a number of cancers.

About this study

Official title: Influence of General Anesthesia Versus Spinal Anesthesia on Circulating Tumor Cells in Patients Undergoing Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor

Multiple lines of evidence have shown that anesthesia method is associated with long-term outcomes in patients undergoing surgery due to cancers, including lung, breast, prostate, and bladder cancer, etc. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have been validated as prognostic biomarkers of a number of cancers. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of anesthesia methods on the number of CTCs in patients receiving transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). The difference of anesthesia method is achieved by using general anesthesia in one group and spinal anesthesia in the other group.

What participants receive

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

  • General AnesthesiaProcedure or surgery

    Patients will have TURBT under general anesthesia, which is induced with midazolam, propofol, sufentanil and rocuronium. The patients will be mechanically ventilated with laryngeal mask airway (LMA). Anesthesia will be maintained with sevoflurane/desflurane, propofol and remifentanil.

  • Spinal AnesthesiaProcedure or surgery

    Patients will have TURBT under spinal anesthesia. 10~15mg of 0.5% ropivacaine will be injected in the subarachnoid cerebrospinal fluid at the levels of L2-L3 or L3-L4 in lumbar space. It will numb the nerve supply of the belly, hips, bottom as well as legs. The patient stays awake and won't feel any pain due to operation.

What is being measured

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

  1. the number of Circulating Tumor Cells

    The number of circulating tumor cells will be measured by collecting 5 ml of venous blood sample.

    Measured: on the Day 7~10 after surgery

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Surgeon Satisfaction

    The surgeon satisfaction will be measured with the Likert scale, which ranges from 0 to 50, with a higher score indicating higher satisfaction.

    Measured: immediately after surgery

  2. Patient Satisfaction

    The patient satisfaction will be measured with the Modified Bauer Scale, which ranges from 0 to 50, with a higher score indicating higher satisfaction.

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

  3. Visual Analogue Scale

    Pain intensity will be assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale, which ranges from 0 to 10, with a higher score indicating greater pain intensity at 24 hours after surgery.

    Measured: at 24 hours after surgery

  4. Nausea Score

    Nausea score will be assessed using the Numerical Rating Scale, which ranges from 0 to 10, with a higher score indicating greater nausea ou score at 24 hours after surgery.

    Measured: at 24 hours after surgery

  5. Hospitalization Days

    The length of hospital stay will be recorded.

    Measured: up to 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing General Anesthesia and Spinal Anesthesia in people with Bladder Cancer, run by RenJi Hospital 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 3 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Aug 2023. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

the number of Circulating Tumor Cells (time frame: on the Day 7~10 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 9 Aug 2023.
