Trial summary

Ampullary cancer, a rare malignancy, lacks standardized guidelines for effective multimodal treatment following curative resection. The opinions on whether postoperative chemotherapy can improve the long-term survival of ampullary adenocarcinoma (AA) are discordant. Read more about this study

  • Ages 18 to 85 years
  • All sexes
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: In this international, retrospective cohort study, the cohort of Chinese enrolled patients who underwent curative surgery for AA at the National Cancer Center of China, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Cancer Hospital, from January 1, 1998, to December 31, 2020 (NCC cohort). The Ethics Committee of the National Cancer Center of China approved the study. Informed consent was secured from participants, authorizing the utilization for potential research. Additionally, patients with AA between January 1, 2004, and December 31, 2017, in the surveillance, epidemiology and end results program were collected as the Western cohort. In which, 12 registries were enrolled including Alaska Natives, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, New Jersey, New Mexico, Seattle (Puget Sound), and Utah.

Who may be able to join

  • Pathologically confirmed AA patients without distant metastasis treated with curative-intent resection

Who cannot join

  • patients who received neoadjuvant therapy or radiotherapy, as well as those with missing clinical pathological or follow-up information

About this study

Official title: Quantitative Nodal Burden as a Determinant Identifying Ampullary Adenocarcinoma Patients Benefiting From Adjuvant Chemotherapy: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Ampullary cancer, a rare malignancy, lacks standardized guidelines for effective multimodal treatment following curative resection. The opinions on whether postoperative chemotherapy can improve the long-term survival of ampullary adenocarcinoma (AA) are discordant. This aspect remains poorly studied, with comparably scant research conducted on it.

log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS), a quantitative variable, can continuously and accurately reflect the burden of nodal involvement, which suggested a potential ability to identify AA patients benefiting from postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT). Therefore, Mainly focused issues of ACT addressed in the study are as follows: 1) the role of ACT in improving long-term survival for patients with AA after curative resection. 2) the role of LODDS in identifying postoperative AA patients benefiting from ACT. 3) compared with T and N classifications reported previously, the advantage of LODDS in identifying ACT-benefited patients.

In this cohort study, a large scale of sample size was conducted by drawing on the collective experience of the National Cancer Center of China. The patients treated with radiotherapy were excluded to concentrate on the effect of ACT.

Being tested
Adjuvant chemotherapy

What participants receive

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

  • Adjuvant chemotherapyDrug

    In the Cancer Hospital, postoperative chemotherapy regimens and doses were planned by oncologists, with adjustments made based on drug toxicities or tumor responses.

What is being measured

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

  1. The role of adjuvant chemotherapy(ACT)

    The association between ACT and Overall Survival (OS) of patients

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The role of adjuvant chemotherapy(ACT)

    The association between ACT and Cancer-specific Survival (CSS) of patients

    Measured: 1 year

  2. The role of adjuvant chemotherapy(ACT)

    The association between ACT and Recurrence-free Survival (RFS) of patients

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ampullary Adenoma and Chemotherapy Effect, run by Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences 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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 May 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 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The role of adjuvant chemotherapy(ACT) (time frame: 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 30 May 2024.
