Study on Effect of Robotic Versus Laparoscopic Surgical Technology on Genitourinary Function After Total Mesorectal Excision for Rectal Cancer
Intraoperative pelvic autonomic nerve (PAN) injury is the dominant reason for genitourinary malfunction after total mesorectal excision (TME), particularly in low rectal tumours. TME necessitates meticulous, sharp dissection with an awareness of the PAN pathway. In particular, laparoscopic TME (L-TME) is technically difficult and requires advanced laparoscopic surgical skills. Comparing …
Selective Total Mesorectal Excision Based on Intra-Operative Frozen Section From Local Excision in Rectal Cancer Undergoing Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy
This study is a prospective, single-arm, phase II superiority trial to determine whether a selective organ-preserving strategy based on immediate intra-operative frozen-section results can achieve favorable 2-year local control while lowering morbidity in patients with low rectal cancer (tumor ≤5 cm from the anus) who have a near clinical complete …
Prospective Observational Trial to Evaluate Quality of Life After Neoadjuvant Radiation or Chemoradiation Followed by Surgery in Patients With Rectal Cancer
Observational study to evaluate longitudinal quality of life according to standardized EORTC questionaires as well as functional Outcome, oncological outcome and toxicity in patients treated with neoadjuvant short term radiation or long-term chemoradiation followed by surgery
Zanidatamab Before Surgery for the Treatment of HER2 Positive Colon and Rectal Cancer in Patients Planned for Curative Intent Treatment
This phase II trial studies how well giving zanidatamab before surgery (neoadjuvant) works in treating patients with colon and rectal cancer that is human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positive (HER2+ve) who are planned for curative intent treatment. Zanidatamab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of …
A Clinical Study of Adebrelimab in Combination With SHR-8068 and Chemoradiotherapy as Perioperative Therapy for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
The study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Adebrelimab and SHR-8068 in combination with chemoradiotherapy in subjects with rectal cancer.
A Study of Botensilimab and Balstilimab for Colorectal Cancer With ctDNA+ After Surgery and Chemotherapy
The researchers are doing this study to find out whether the combination of botensilimab and balstilimab (BOT/BAL), followed by balstilimab alone, is an effective treatment for people with microsatellite stable (MSS) colorectal cancer or colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) who have measurable residual disease (MRD) after standard treatment with surgery and …
Monitoring Treatment Response With On-board DWI During Neo-adjuvant Chemo-radiation for Rectal Cancer Using Magnetic Resonance-guided-radiotherapy Systems
feasibility of using a diffusion sequence of a MRgRT system as an early marker of treatment response during nRCT of rectal adenocarcinoma.
Circulating Tumour DNA (ctDNA) in Patients With Colorectal Cancer and the Relationship to Imaging Features of Extramural Venous Invasion
This study does not involve randomization or treatment. Eligible patients have colorectal adenocarcinoma with no metastases eligible for curative surgery. A pre operative staging scan must have been completed within 6 weeks prior to surgery. Two x 20ml blood samples will be taken from each patient, one prior to and …
The Safety and Efficacy of Transanal Irrigation in Patients With Sleep Disturbance From Low Anterior Resection Syndrome After Rectal Cancer Surgery (TraLARS)
The preservation surgery of the anal sphincter muscle has become the standard procedure in the treatment of rectal cancer and, thanks to advancements in surgical techniques, can now be performed for tumors located closer to the anus. This method allows patients to avoid a permanent artificial anus, maintaining continuity of …
End to End Anastomosis With Omega Suture Versus End to Anterior Rectal Wall In Colorectal Anastomosis in Sigmoid and Upper Rectal Cancer
The aim of this study is to compare end to end anastomosis with omega suture versus end to anterior rectal wall in colorectal anastomosis as regard post operative anastomotic leakage, bowel function, operative time and intra operative blood loss.
