NCT ID: NCT04744792 Completed - Quality of Life Clinical Trials

QoL of Colorectal Cancer Patients and Spouses

Start date: March 1, 2006
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The aim of the present prospective, comparative study was to compare the quality of life (QoL) of patients after colorectal surgery to the QoL of their spouses. The study included patients who underwent curative surgery for colorectal carcinoma (n = 100; abdominoperineal excision [n = 33], low anterior resection [n = 33], left hemicolectomy [n = 34]) and their spouses (n = 100). The patients and spouses completed the Medical Outcome Study 36-item Short Form Survey (SF-36) and the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule II (WHODAS-II) preoperatively and at postoperative months 15 to 18. The QoL of patients and that of their spouses changed following surgery for colorectal cancer. These changes were more significant among male patients' spouses.

NCT ID: NCT03390517 Completed - Rectal Cancer Clinical Trials

A Study of Perfusion of Colorectal Anastomosis Using FLuorescence AnGiography (FLAG-trial)

FLAG
Start date: November 9, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized, controlled, parallel study to determine the difference in post-operative anastomotic leak rate of colorectal anastomosis where colon and rectal tissue perfusion is evaluated using fluorescence angiography with indocyanine green and without this method.

NCT ID: NCT03259828 Completed - Sigmoid Cancer Clinical Trials

Sigmoid Colon Organ Motion in Radiotherapy

Start date: December 6, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Radiotherapy is used in cancer treatment to eradicate microscopic cancer cells to lower the risk of recurrence. The radiotherapy plan must account for organ movement inside the body to ascertain adequate dose is delivered to the target. Knowledge of the magnitude is crucial to radiotherapy treatment planning. This study aims to quantify the movement of the sigmoid colon between different fractions of radiotherapy treatment (interfraction motion) and within the same fraction (intrafraction motion). This knowledge will help us determine the optimal margin to use in radiotherapy treatment planning.

NCT ID: NCT03083951 Completed - Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trials

Complete Mesocolon Excision vs Locoregional Lymphadenectomy in Sigmoid Colon Cancer (CMELL)

CMELL
Start date: September 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A randomized, controlled clinical trial comparing lymphadenectomy with extended inferior mesenteric artery ligation (complete mesocolon excision: which includes lymphoma tissue from the origin of the inferior mesenteric vein) with conventional locoregional lymphadenectomy in patients undergoing laparoscopic sigmoidectomy for sigmoid cancer.
