New study aims to pinpoint Cancer's hidden path in colon surgery
NCT ID NCT07149623
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This observational study will examine lymph nodes from the ileum mesentery in 406 people undergoing surgery for right-sided colon cancer. Researchers want to learn where cancer spreads in these nodes to help surgeons decide how much tissue to remove. Participants will be followed for up to 5 years to track survival and recurrence.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help surgeons decide how much of the ileum to remove during colon cancer surgery, potentially reducing recurrence and improving survival.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly benefit participants. Results may not change practice if the findings are inconclusive or not widely applicable.
