Registry Platform Colorectal Cancer (AZURITE)

April 29, 2025 updated by: iOMEDICO AG

Clinical Research Platform for Molecular Testing, Treatment, Quality of Life and Outcome of Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Receiving Systemic Therapy (AZURITE)

The registry aims to collect and analyse information on the antineoplastic treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, treated in palliative intention in daily routine practice in Germany.

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Detailed Description

AZURITE is a national, observational, prospective, longitudinal, multicenter cohort study (tumor registry platform) with the purpose to record information on the antineoplastic treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer in Germany. The registry will follow patients for up to three years. It will identify common therapeutic sequences and changes in the treatment of the disease. At inclusion, data in patient characteristics, comorbidities, tumor characteristics and previous treatments are collected. During the course of observation data on all systemic treatments, radiotherapies, surgeries, and outcome are documented.

Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) will be evaluated for up to three years.
