Detailed Description
Squamous cell carcinoma of the anus (SCCA) is a rare disease with less than 200 new cases in Denmark and Sweden each year and approximately 100 new cases in Norway and Finland but with increasing incidence. Primary treatment is chemo-radiotherapy (CRT) comprising high dose IMRT based radiation therapy with combination chemotherapy of 5-FU and Cisplatin. Overall treatment response is good in small tumors, but less pronounced for high-risk tumors.
In absence of complete pathological response after CRT or local recurrence, patients are evaluated for. salvage surgery. The importance of R0 resection on overall survival has been described in several studies. It is suggested that early detection of treatment failure and recurrences increases the chance of possible curative surgery (R0-resection) and thereby overall survival.
A follow-up program has 3 purposes
- To detect lack of complete response to primary treatment
- Early detection of local or distant recurrences
- Describing and managing late morbidity
Purpose:
The main purpose of this follow-up study is to investigate if circulating tumor tDNA can improve detection of early treatment failure or recurrences thereby assisting in increasing the potential for cure. Secondly, to provide evidence for use of imaging and third objective is to establish early intervention against late morbidities.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: ARM A: HPV positive standard of care follow-up
The national follow-up program + collection of blood samples for retrospective translational research
|
|
Experimental: ARM B: HPV positive ctDNA guided imaging in follow-up
The national follow-up program + ctDNA guided additional imaging + collection of blood samples for retrospective translational research
|
Blood samples in follow-up positive for ctDNA leads to an extra PET-CT scan to detect early treatment failure
|
No Intervention: ARM O: HPV negative observational arm
Patients with HPV negative disease will be included in an observational arm (ARM O) ARM O: The national follow-up program + collection of blood samples for retrospective translational research |
