NCT ID: NCT02057471 Completed - Anemia Clinical Trials

Intravenous Iron: Measuring Response in Anemic Surgical Patients

Start date: September 2009
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

20 Patients will be recruited with confirmed colorectal adenocarcinoma and anemia who are planned to undergo surgery. All patients will be treated with a single dose of 1g intravenous ferric carboxymaltose (FERINJECT). It is hypothesized that intravenous iron supplementation is efficacious at raising haemoglobin levels and reduced blood transfusion requirements.

NCT ID: NCT01959269 Completed - Colorectal Neoplasm Clinical Trials

Investigating the Use of Regorafenib (Stivarga®) in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC) After Failure of Standard Therapy

RECORA
Start date: October 31, 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of the study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of Stivarga in patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma in routine use in Germany. The study is purely observational, only data from routine treatment are to be collected. The treatment and treatment conditions are solely at discretion of the treating physician.

NCT ID: NCT01707121 Completed - Physical Activity Clinical Trials

The Impact of Physical Activity on the Outcome of Surgery

Start date: December 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Over the last decades different life style factors have been established as risk factors for various diseases. The obesity pandemic displays a good example of a disease where great effort is undertaken to characterize risk factors associated with obesity (1). Smoking is another life style risk factor established since several decades, and where primary prevention has been increasingly successful (2, 3). Cardiovascular epidemiologic research at the University of Gothenburg recognized PA as a factor of importance early on and thus included PA related questions in the work up of studies with large cohorts (4-6). A 4-level scale was introduced in the late 1960:s by Saltin and Grimby (7) and has been used extensively since then. With this background it is of interest to record physical activity one year and one month prior to certain types of elective surgery and to study the relationship of PA to surgical complications and recovery is of interest. The aim of this study is to investigate whether a higher physical activity prior to a surgical procedure reduces hospital stay, sick leave and the complication rate. A secondary aim is to investigate the effect of preoperative physical activity on the rate of resumption of QoL and normal physical function.

NCT ID: NCT01701310 Completed - Anemia Clinical Trials

IVICA: Intravenous Iron in Colorectal Cancer Associated Anaemia

IVICA
Start date: April 2012
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

116 eligible patients with confirmed non-metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma and anemia will be randomized to receive either oral ferrous sulphate (control) or intravenous ferric carboxymaltose (intervention). It is hypothesized that intravenous iron supplementation is more efficacious than oral iron therapy.

NCT ID: NCT01694238 Completed - Diverticulitis Clinical Trials

A Randomized Trial on the Technical Aspects of Stoma Construction.

Start date: June 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

An investigation on the difference in stoma hernia frequency related to surgical technique when incising the fascia. All patients planned for elective colostomy formation are to be included. Patients undergoing rectal resection with a TME and a colostomy (Hartmann's procedure) for rectal cancer, abdominoperineal resection for rectal cancer or diverting colostomy for any reason are all included. The three groups for randomization are: A. circular incision in the abdominal wall fascia B. cruciate incision in the abdominal wall fascia C. mesh enforced cruciate incision in the abdominal wall fascia Primary endpoint is the parastomal hernia rate within 12 months from index surgery. Secondary end-points include clinical variables, re-admission and/or re-operation due to any stoma complication, quality of life and health economy analyses, at 12 months.

NCT ID: NCT01417611 Completed - Colorectal Neoplasm Clinical Trials

The Usefulness of I-scan in Screening Colonoscopy

Start date: September 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Image-enhanced endoscopy in screening colonoscopy 1. useful tool for detecting subtle epithelial lesions 2. useful tool for predicting real-time histology of epithelial lesions. Among image-enhancing techniques, i-SCAN is new developed and the practical usefulness of i-scan for screening colonoscopy has not been investigated yet.

NCT ID: NCT01288833 Completed - Colonic Polyps Clinical Trials

Clinical Study of Real Time Colorectal Polyp Diagnosis During Colonoscopy - the VALID Colonoscopy Study

VALID
Start date: March 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The investigators hypothesize that high definition colonoscopy with close focus narrow band imaging features has a high diagnostic accuracy for colorectal polyp histology, and can replace formal pathologic assessment in cases of high diagnostic confidence.

NCT ID: NCT01112280 Completed - Colorectal Neoplasm Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Cap-assisted Chromoendoscopy as a Screening Test for Colorectal Neoplasm Using Web-based Research Network

CapACE
Start date: April 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The investigators plan to conduct a multi-center, randomized controlled trial to investigate the efficacy of cap-assisted chromoendoscopy as a screening test for detection of colorectal polyp. This study will be performed using web-based research network, e-VELOS in Korea.

NCT ID: NCT00906997 Completed - Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trials

Colorectal Cancer Screening in Average-risk Population: Immunochemical Fecal Occult Blood Testing Versus Colonoscopy

Start date: November 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Aims: 1. To compare the efficacy of biennial immunochemical fecal occult blood test (iFOBT) versus colonoscopy every 10 years for the reduction of colorectal cancer-related mortality at 10 years in average-risk population. 2. To determine the compliance and complications associated with both strategies. Methods: Multicenter, randomized, controlled study in 8 Spanish regions (Aragón, Canarias, Catalunya, Euskadi, Galicia, Madrid, Murcia and Valencia). Study groups: - Group I: iFOBT (OC Sensor®) in one stool sample, followed by colonoscopy when a positive result. - Group II: colonoscopy. Sample-size calculation: 27,749 subjects in each study group (total: 55,498).

NCT ID: NCT00867334 Completed - Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trials

New Individualized Therapy Trial for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

NITMEC
Start date: June 2009
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of imatinib mesylate in combination with panitumumab for the treatment of stage IV colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It will also assess the whether imatinib mesylate, either alone or in combination with panitumumab, is effective in treating this type of cancer. In addition, the study will evaluate the feasibility of a predefined lab score and whether it can predict which patients will respond to treatment with imatinib mesylate.
