October 1, 2019 updated by: Yonsei University

Prospective Study of Oncologic Outcomes After Laparoscopic Modified Complete Mesocolic Excision for Non-metastatic Right Colon Cancer [PIONEER Study]: Multicenter, Single-Arm Study

This study is a multi-institutional, prospective, observational study evaluation oncologic outcomes of laparoscopic modified complete mesocolic excision (mCME) on right-sided colon cancer.

The primary outcome of this study is 3 year disease-free survival. Secondary outcome measures include 3 year overall survival, incidence of surgical complications, completeness of mCME, and distribution of metastatic lymph nodes.

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

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The present study aims to evaluate the oncological outcomes of laparoscopic mCME on right-sided colon cancer. The right side of the colon was defined as the colon from cecum up to the proximal half of the transverse colon. The number of patients needs to get a 90% power is 250. Patients will be enrolled at five leading centers in South Korea. A complete information leaflet will give to the patients during the first consultation, which will correspond to the enrollment day. The preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative period will be in complete accordance with the usual care of the center. The baseline demographics and conditions, as well as the perioperative items and the postoperative occurrences, will be recorded through a prior designed case report form. The follow-up encompasses 13 postoperative consultations: 1month, 3 months, after that every 3 months until 36 months.

The primary outcome of this study is 3-year disease-free survival. Secondary outcome measures include 3-year overall survival, the incidence of surgical complications, completeness of mCME, and distribution of metastatic lymph nodes. Review of resected surgical specimens and the operative field after completion of lymph node dissection will be done based on photographs to assess the quality if surgery.

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

19 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 1. Qualitative diagnosis: a pathological diagnosis of adenocarcinoma; the tumor located between the cecum and the right 1/2 of transverse colon
  • 2. Patients suitable for curative surgery older than 19 years old
  • 3. ASA grade I-III
  • 4. Patients without preoperative treatment
  • 5. Informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • 1. Informed consent refusal

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Laparoscopic modified central mesocolic excision
Patients receiving laparoscopic colectomy with the concept of modified complete mesocolic excision for right-sided colon cancer
Procedure: Laparoscopic modified complete mesocolic excision
First, complete kocherization may be required to clear possible tumor spread if the tumor is infiltrating or adhering to the duodenum or perinephric fat tissue. Second, if the tumor is locally advanced, the entire prerenal soft tissue behind Gerota's fascia may need to be cleared, especially for tumors growing toward the posterior. The third difference of mCME with the conventional CME involves the tailored resection of the mesocolon and ileal mesentery according to tumor location. After identifying the root of the middle colic artery, the site of the vascular ligation depends on the location of the tumor. When the tumor is located in the cecum and ascending colon, only the right branch of the middle colic artery is ligated. If the tumor was present in these latter sites, the root of the middle colic artery is ligated.

  • Laparoscopic right hemicolectomy

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
3 year disease-free survival (DFS)
Time Frame: DFS will be measured up to three years after surgery, and the last visit is 14th visit after index surgery.
The 3 year disease-free survival is defined as the time from surgery until documented recurrence or death from any cause.
DFS will be measured up to three years after surgery, and the last visit is 14th visit after index surgery.

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
3 year overall survival (OS)
Time Frame: Three years after surgery
The time from surgery until documented death from any cause
Three years after surgery

Primary Completion (ANTICIPATED)

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.
