Human Intestinal Microbiome and Surgical Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Colorectal Cancer Surgery (Microbiota)

July 1, 2019 updated by: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

Intro: Recent studies on colorectal cancer surgery have been focusing on the role of intestinal microbiome on surgical outcomes. Standard perioperative cares, like mechanic bowel preparation (MBP), administration of antibiotics (ABT) and surgery-related stress and injury influence the microbiome composition and possibly induce a shift toward a microbiome dysbiotic state, which predisposes to complicated postoperative course. Microbiome composition changes and enhanced virulence factors may increase the risk of postoperative complications, such as anastomotic leakage (AL), surgical site infection (SSI), and postoperative ileus (PI), which are known to impact on patient's overall survival and cancer recurrence.

Objective: The primary objective is to investigate if a significant association might exist between the microbiome composition and the occurrence of postoperative complications at 90 days.

Methods: 3 different microbiome samples will be taken from all patients. Two fresh fecal samples for detection of LM and fecal water preparation: a) a day before the surgery before MBP and/or ABT (LM1), b) postoperatively after first bowel movement (LM2). One sample will be taken intra-operatively from the stapled resection lines of circular stapler used for forming a colorectal anastomosis, to detect the MAM and to perform immunohistochemistry staining for detection of HACE1 expression.

DNA analysis will be performed for all samples. IHC will be performed for detecting HACE1 expression in the tumor and colorectal anastomosis tissues using anti-HACE1 antibodies. .

For proliferation assessment, human colon carcinoma cell lines HT29 will be plated in monolayers and scratched with a single scratch. Monolayers will be incubated for 24 hours with fecal water from patients with surgical complications and matched control patients without complications.

Descriptive statistics will be performed to describe the study population. This project aim to describe microbiome composition and its impact on postoperative complications.

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.

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.
preoperative preparation on microbiome composition
Mechanical Bowel Preparation + oral antibiotics group: receiving mechanical bowel preparation only MBP will be prepared with 4 liters of Polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution to be started 24 hours before the planned surgery. 500mg of Metronidazole will be administrated 3 times one day before the surgery at 2 pm, 3 pm and 10 pm.

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
Rate of anastomotic leakage
Time Frame: 90 days after surgery
detected by imaging techiques (CT scan or MRI)
90 days after surgery
Rate of surgical site infection
Time Frame: 90 days after surgery
1)superficial and deep infection:clinical observation of purulent discharge from the wound and/or bacterial staining from the wound 2)organ or deep space infection: imaging techniques (CT, MRI, USS)
90 days after surgery
Rate of prolonged postoperative ileuss
Time Frame: 90 days after surgery
detected by clinical observation of the first bowel movement after the surgery
90 days after 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

Correlation between detected bacterial OTUs (Operation Taxonomic Units) and the event of reintervention
Time Frame: 90 days after surgery
In the patient group with the event of reintervention, an abundance of specific OTUs will be analysed in compare with patients with no event of reintervention.

Time Frame: 6 months after study start date

Monolayers of human colon cancer cell lines HT29 will be incubated for 24 hours with fecal water from patients with surgical complications and matched control patients without complications.

Proliferation will be calculated in two manners: 1) The time of the closure of the scratch defect will be evaluated and compared in the two group., 2)Proliferation rate will be analyzed by immunohistochemistry marker Ki 67, expression of Ki 67 will be evaluated in cells at the borders of the scratch defect

Time Frame: 6 months after study start date
Immunohistochemistry with anti-HACE1 antibodies will be used to detect expression levels in tumoral (colorectal cancer) and non-tumoral (anastomotic sample) tissues. In a case of decreased expression, tissues will be analyzed by methylation PCR to detect an aberrant methylation of HACE1 and its hypermethylation
