Supplemental Oxygen - Effect on Occurrence of Subsequent Cancer After Abdominal Surgery (Follow-up of the PROXI Trial) (PROXI)

November 14, 2024 updated by: Lars S. Rasmussen

Perioperative Inspiratory Oxygen Fraction - Effect on Occurrence of Subsequent Cancer After Abdominal Surgery (Follow-up of the PROXI Trial)

Aim: to investigate the effect of a high inspiratory oxygen fraction (FiO2) given during and after laparotomy procedures on occurrence of a subsequent, new or recurrent, cancer diagnosis at a long-term follow-up.

Background: A high inspiratory oxygen fraction (FiO2 = 0.80) has been linked to prevention of surgical site infection, but the Danish randomized clinical multicenter trial, the PROXI trial, found no difference in frequency of surgical site infection. In fact, long-term mortality was significantly increased with a hazards ratio of 1.30 in patients receiving 80% oxygen, and this appeared to be statistically significant in patients undergoing cancer surgery, but not in non-cancer patients.

At this point, no convincing mechanism explains the observed increased mortality after hyperoxia, as the long-term pathophysiological effects of oxygen are not fully understood.

Primary hypothesis of this follow-up study of the PROXI trial: Use of 80% oxygen increase the frequency of patients with a subsequent, new or recurrent, cancer.

Study Overview

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.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

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

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Participants in the PROXI trial

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age 18 years or older.
  • Laparotomy, acute or elective. In case of gynaecological surgery only if malignancy is suspected (defined as risk of ovarian malignancy index >200 or a specimen with atypical or neoplastic cells).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Other surgery within 30 days (except surgery in local anaesthesia).
  • Chemotherapy within 3 months.
  • Inability to give informed consent.
  • Inability to keep oxygen saturation above 90% without supplemental oxygen (measured preoperatively by pulse oximetry).

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
Frequency of patients with the composite outcome measure of either a subsequent, new or recurrent, cancer registration or a new histological specimen showing any neoplasm
Time Frame: 36-60 months after randomization
36-60 months after randomization

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
Frequency of patients with subsequent, new or recurrent, cancer registration at the Danish Cancer Registry
Time Frame: 15-39 months after randomization
15-39 months after randomization
Frequency of patients with new histological specimen in the Danish Patobank showing any neoplasm
Time Frame: 36-60 months after randomization
36-60 months after randomization
Frequency of patients with new histological specimen in the Danish Patobank showing neoplasm of a histological type not previously diagnosed
Time Frame: 36-60 months after randomization
36-60 months after randomization
Frequency of patients with cancer as diagnosis code at a readmission
Time Frame: 36-60 months after randomization
36-60 months after randomization
Frequency of patients with cancer as primary diagnosis code at a readmission

Time Frame: 36-60 months after randomization
36-60 months after randomization

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
