Study of Post Operative Pain in Endometrial Cancer Robotic Versus Laparotomy

March 30, 2018 updated by: David Cohn, Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center

Prospective, Double Arm, Comparative Study for the Evaluation of Postoperative Pain, QOL, and Determination of Inflammatory Markers In Patients Undergoing Robotics Versus Open Laparotomy Approach for Staging of Endometrial Cancer

This study is being done to evaluate the efficacy of robotic approach for staging of endometrial cancer as compared to an equivalent abdominal approach. The primary objective is to measure and compare postoperative pain at rest at several time points between two groups of patients undergoing either robotic or open laparotomy approach for staging of endometrial cancer.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

The primary objective is to measure and compare postoperative pain at rest at several time points (24 +/-4hours, 48 +/-4hours, and 72 +/-4hours) between the two groups of patients undergoing either robotic or open laparotomy approach for staging of endometrial cancer. Post operative Quality of Life will also be collected at several time points. The total amount of post operative opioid requirements during the first 24hours between patients undergoing either robotic or open laparotomy approach surgery. The survival status every four months for the first two years will be monitored, then every 6 months for up to 5 years. The primary endpoint is the mean difference in post operative pain VAS scores reported by subjects at rest at the following time points: 24+/-4, 48+/-4, and 72+/-4 hours between both groups after surgery has been completed.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 81 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Sampling Method

Probability Sample

Study Population

  • Require and/or receive chronic analgesic therapy for any pain related condition
  • Severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition that would interfere with the study results.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

Open Laparotomy Surgical Candidates
Patients receiving open laparotomy for endometrial cancer surgical staging

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
The outcome measure is mean difference in post operative pain VAS scores reported by subjects at rest at the several time points between two groups of patients undergoing either robotic or open laparotomy approach for staging of endometrial cancer.
Time Frame: up to 24 hours
up to 24 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Secondary outcomes will include the measurement of post operative pain after leg extension, post operative quality of life, post operative opioid requirements during first 24hours, survival status up to five years.
Time Frame: up to 5 years
up to 5 years

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
