Filter by:A significant racial disparity in the incidence and mortality of CRC exists in the U.S. with African Americans having CRC incidence and mortality rates that are 20% and 40% higher than the general U.S. population. It has been demonstrated that the gut microbiome impacts tumor development and progression through multiple mechanisms, including impacting the tumoral immune response. However, it is unknown if microbiome modulating treatment can have an impact on CRC outcomes.

This is an open-label, prospective phase II clinical trial to evaluate the therapeutic and prognostic implications of tumor immune microenvironment in the neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemoradiotherapy for patients with rectal cancer. A total of 100 patients will be enrolled in this trial. The primary end point is the rate of pathological complete response (pCR). The long-term prognosis and adverse effects will also be evaluated and analyzed.
Laparoscopic natural orifice specimen extraction surgery (NOSES) for low rectal cancer has a good minimally invasive effect. However, the NOSES prognosis studies are all small sample retrospective studies. This study conducted a multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial of NOSES surgery for low rectal cancer to compare the difference in surgical outcomes between conventional laparoscopic surgery and NOSES surgery for low rectal cancer. A total of 500 patients were planned to be enrolled, including 250 in the control group and 250 in the experimental group. The primary end point was 2-year disease-free survival (DFS), and the secondary end points were surgical safety, postoperative pathology, postoperative defecation, urination, and sexual function. Through a large sample size study, this study aims to clarify the advantages of NOSE surgery for low rectal cancer, promote the promotion of low rectal cancer NOSES surgery in the country, standardize the way of low rectal cancer NOSES surgery, improve the surgical treatment of patients with low rectal cancer, improve the quality of life of patients, reduce the burden of patients, and increase the satisfaction. And improve the international influence of the project team in the field of minimally invasive surgical treatment of colorectal cancer.
Multiple linear stapler firings during double stapling technique (DST) is associated with anastomotic leakage (AL) after laparoscopic low anterior resection (LAR). We aim to investigate the risk factors and then to develop a deep learning model to predict the usage of ≥3 linear stapler cartridges during DST anastomosis.
The purpose of this protocol is to compare neoadjuvant chemoradiation plus consolidation chemotherapy before surgical resection with the standard neoadjuvant chemoradiation followed by surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with rectal cancer.
Neoadjuvant treatments (nCRT) are becoming the standard treatment for patients with stage II or stage III mid-low rectal cancer. In fact, with the introduction of total mesorectal excision, the local recurrence has been reduced significantly. Recently few studies have shown that surgery alone is enough for patients with T3 rectal cancer. These issues raised the question of whether nCRT is needed for all T3 rectal cancer patients. Therefore, this study was designed to compare the long-term oncological outcomes between surgery and surgery following nCRT among patients with MRI-defined T3, clear MRF mid-low rectal cancer.
Pathologic complete response (pCR) after multimodal treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) patients is considered as the gold-standard of treatment success as it is associated to privileged oncologic outcome. Nevertheless, data from multicenter high-volume cohorts with long term follow-up are scarce. This is a multicenter observational study using prospectively collected data from the Spanish Rectal Cancer Project database. The main objective of the study is to update long-term oncologic follow-up of those patients treated for LARC with nCRT and surgery (either TME or subtotal TME; S-TME) who had obtained a pCR. Secondary objective is to analyze demographic, clinical, operative and treatment variables in search of related factors to adverse oncologic outcomes, like distant recurrence or tumor-related deaths. The results are reported in accordance with the STROBE (STrengthening the Reporting of OBservational studies in Epidemiology) Statement for observational studies. All calculations are performed using Stata 13.1 (StataCorp, Texas, USA).
In this study, we aim to develop and validate an easy-to-use machine learning prediction model to preoperatively identify the lymph node metastasis status for rectal cancer patients by using these clinical data from three hospitals.
This phase II/III trial studies how well neoadjuvant short-course radiotherapy and chemotherapy with or without PD-1 inhibitors works in treating patients with locally advanced rectal adenocarcinoma. Neoadjuvant short-course radiation therapy followed by two-drug regimen chemotherapy, such as CAPOX, were shown to be non-inferior to standard long-course chemoradiotherapy in our previous STELLAR study. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) using monoclonal antibodies, such as PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor, show promising efficiency and reliable security in some limited sample prospective or retrospective studies. When treating patients with locally advanced rectal cancer, giving sequential neoadjuvant short-course radiotherapy and chemotherapy with PD-1 inhibitor may work better.
