Application of Amide Proton Transfer-weighted Imaging in Predicting Pathological Complete Response After Neoadjuvant Therapy of Rectal Cancer
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the amide proton transfer-weighted imaging for rectal cancer response assessment after neoadjuvant therapy. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does amide proton transfer-weighted imaging predict the cancer response before surgery? Participants will underwent amide proton transfer-weighted imaging …
A Randomised Clinical Investigation to Assess Efficacy of Low Volume Transanal Irrigation by Qufora® IrriSedo MiniGo Versus Conservative Treatment for Low Anterior Resection Syndrome Patients
The purpose of this post-market clinical follow up study is to assess the efficacy on clinical symptoms of LARS of low volume Transanal Irrigation by MiniGo in conjunction with conservative treatment versus conservative treatment at 3 months.
ctDNA Monitoring to Predict the Efficacy of TNT for Rectal Cancer
This is a prospective observational study with three primary objectives: Objective 1: Evaluate the detection rate and changes in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) levels in blood samples from colorectal cancer patients before, during, and after total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT). Determine the detection rate and change of CtDNA in blood samples …
Advances in Imaging to Assess Response in Rectal Cancer
The goal of this observational study is to determine the feasibility of acquiring serial MRI images for advanced radiotherapy planning in colorectal patients. The main question it aims to answer: Is it feasible to acquire serial MR images for advanced radiotherapy planning for rectal cancer.
Natural Orifice Specimen Extraction in Low Rectal Cancer Surgery
This study aims to compare the postoperative outcomes of low rectal cancer patients who underwent surgery with Natural Orifice Specimen Extraction (NOSE) versus traditional Pfannenstiel extraction.
Short-course Radiotherapy (5×6Gy/7Gy/8Gy) Followed by Neo-adjuvant Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
Preoperative radiotherapy followed by total mesorectal excision (TME) has been recommended as the preferred treatment method for locally advanced rectal cancer. Similar rates of local control, survival and toxicity were observed in preoperative long-course radiotherapy (LCRT) (45-50.4 Gy in 25-28 fractions) and short-course radiotherapy (SCRT) of 25 Gy in five …
Chemotherapy and Tislelizumab With Split-course HFRT for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
The question of how to administer adequate chemotherapy and immunotherapy to synchronise hypofraction radiotherapy (HFRT) treatment strategy to maximise the benefits of neoadjuvant therapy for the improved prognosis of patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC).We aimed to study whether chemotherapy and tislelizumab plus split-course HFRT results in better outcomes …
Long-term Cohort Study of Mesorectal Excision for Rectal Cancer
The aim of this cohort study is to record, evaluate and compare the surgical, oncological as well as the functional outcome and Quality of life after mesorectal excision for rectal cancer
Contrast-Enhanced Photon-Counting Detector CT (PCD-CT) for the Local Staging of Rectal Cancer
This study evaluates whether images taken using a photon counting detector CT scanner (PCD-CT) can determine the growth of rectal cancer as well as, or better than, MRI for the management of patients with rectal cancer.
Transanal Transection and Single-stapled Anastomosis (TTSS) in Rectal Cancer Patients
The Transanal Transection and Single-Stapled anastomosis (TTSS) technique may be a valid alternative to traditional double-stapled anastomosis for low rectal cancer surgery. This study aims to compare the postoperative and functional outcomes of patients receiving TTSS and traditional double-stapled anastomosis.
