Effect of the Laparoscopic Approach in Reducing Postoperative Severe

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of the laparoscopic approach over the open approach in the resection of colorectal liver metastases, by examining the reduction of postoperative complications (including mortality), measured using the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) within 90 days of the procedure or regardless of the date during the hospital stay.

Clinical Trial Description

While laparotomy is still the standard approach of resectable colorectal liver mestastases, its associated morbidity remains non-negligible with reported mortality and complications rates ranging from 2 to 8% and 30 to 70%, respectively (1). Besides the underlying liver disease together with the comorbidities of the patients, this high morbidity is also related to the type of surgical approach. Since less than 15% of liver resections are currently performed using the laparoscopic approach in France, a trial showing the superiority of the laparoscopic approach in comparison to the open approach for patients with colorectal liver metastases qualifying for both approaches would allow improving management of patients, reducing the length of stay, maybe decreasing the global cost and changing current practices on a national scale. In order to demonstrate the superiority of the laparoscopic approach over the laparotomy approach, patients with colorectal hepatic metastasis will be randomly assigned to either the laparoscopy or laparotomy groups. Post-operative complications (including mortality) will be measured using the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) within 90 days postoperatively or at any time during hospitalization. The participation time for each patient in the study is 3 years, the patient will be followed at 1, 3, 6, 9, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 30 and 36 months. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
