Genders Eligible for Study
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
Plan for care inclusive of:
i. standard of care neoadjuvant chemoradiation ii. planned total mesorectal excision (TME)
- Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the rectum
At least one of the following:
i. T3 or T4 lesions ii. T2 lesions ≤ 1 mm to the mesorectal fascia iii. Node positive rectal tumor
- ECOG performance status of 0 or 1
- Provide written informed consent
- Female participants of childbearing potential agree to use adequate methods of contraception from the start of metformin administration until the start of CRT. Contraception will not be required to be continued during or after CRT as this treatment renders participants infertile. Clinically acceptable methods of birth control for this study include intrauterine devices (IUD), birth control pills, hormonal implants, injectable contraceptives, and using barrier methods such as condoms, vaginal diaphragm with spermicide, or sponge.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Diagnosis of diabetes
- Current use of metformin
- Prior pelvic radiation
- Life expectancy < 6 months.
- Active infection
- Creatinine > 1.5X ULN, within 1 month prior to baseline
- AST, ALT > 2.5X ULN, within 1 month prior to baseline
- Bilirubin > 1.5 ULN, within 1 month prior to baseline
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Pathological Complete Response (pCR) rate
Time Frame: 1 year
|
The primary outcome is to evaluate the use of metformin to improve pathological complete response (pCR) rates in non-diabetic participants undergoing standard of care neoadjuvant CRT for rectal cancer. The primary outcome will be measured by the pathological complete response rate after completion of the study treatment. |
1 year
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Tumor Proliferation Reduction
Time Frame: 1 year
|
The secondary outcome is to determine if metformin reduces tumor proliferation in this study population.
The secondary outcome will be determined by examining tumor cell proliferation from longitudinal biopsy specimens.
|
1 year
|
Tumor Hypoxia
Time Frame: 1 year
|
The secondary outcome is to determine if metformin reduces tumor hypoxia in this study population.
The secondary outcome will be determined by examining tumor cell hypoxia from longitudinal biopsy specimens.
