Machine Learning-based Surgical Guidance System for Robot-assisted Rectal Surgery
The aim of the study is to evaluate the technical feasibility and applicability of a surgical assistance system based on image recognition algorithms in a first-in-human pilot study. In addition, this study will provide preliminary data on the oncological outcome of the assistance system.
Epacadostat (INCB024360) Added to Preoperative Chemoradiation in Patients With Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate epacadostat when given with routine radiation therapy and chemotherapy (capecitabine and oxaliplatin) to treat rectal cancer before routine surgery is performed to remove the tumor. The Phase II portion of the trial has not started recruiting.
Defunctioning Left-sided Colostomy in Low Anterior Resection for Rectal Cancer
This is prospective, multi centre study evaluating a novel type of defunctioning loop stoma after low anterior resection for rectal cancer. Patients will be operated with a complete splenic flexure mobilisation and total mesorectal excision. An anastomosis will be fashioned at the pelvic floor. This will leave a redundant colon …
Standard Dose Versus High Dose of Radiotherapy in Rectal Preservation With Chemo-radiotherapy in Rectal Cancer Patients
In recent years, an increasing number of retrospective and prospective observational studies have indicated that a subset of rectal cancer patients may avoid surgery if they can achieve a complete response to chemoradiotherapy. Prospective trials, including the previous Danish Watchful Waiting trials (NCT00952926, NCT02438839) in early rectal cancer have demonstrated …
Trial Evaluating the Tailored Versus the Systematic Use of Defunctioning Stoma After Total Mesorectal Excision for Rectal Cancer (GRECCAR17)
GRECCAR 17 will be the first prospective and randomized trial to assess a tailored policy in the use of defunctioning stoma after TME according to the personalized risk of anastomotic leakage. The tailored use of defunctioning stoma after TME for rectal cancer should improve both the quality of life of …
Multicenter Study on Postoperative Urinary and Sexual Function During Laparoscopic Functional Total Mesorectum Excision
Urinary and sexual dysfunctions are among the most common complications in rectal cancer surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effect of laparoscopic functional total mesorectum excision (FTME) on urinary and sexual function in male patients with mid-low rectal cancer. This is a prospective, single-arm, multicenter, …
Neoadjuvant mFOLFOXIRI Plus Bevacizumab in Patients With High-Risk Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
Multimodality treatment that comprises preoperative fluoropyrimidine with concurrent radiotherapy followed by total mesorectal excision (TME) surgery and adjuvant fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy is recommended as a standard treatment of patients with stage II/III rectal cancer. However, the main target of radiotherapy is local control but no improvement in disease-free survival (DFS) or …
The Radiation Oncology-Biology Integration Network (ROBIN) Molecular Characterization Trial (MCT) of Standard Short Course Radiotherapy for Rectal Cancer
This trial (molecular characterization trial) focuses on rectal cancer, a common cancer that is treated with radiotherapy (RT) as standard of care and represents a setting in which to study the effects of RT on the immune system.
Magnetic Resonance Tumour Regression Grade (mrTRG) as a Novel Biomarker - Phase III Non CTIMP Trial
Open to patients undergoing any pre-operative treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer, TRIGGER is the only phase III clinical trial in the UK offering watch and wait. All patients will have post treatment MRI scans routinely performed, no change from the MERCURY trials high resolution MRI protocol is required. Patients …
A Prospective Phase II Study of Individualized Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy for Rectal Cancer Based on Recurrence Risk
