NCT ID NCT07537998
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether putting a person's own intestinal fluid back into their stoma can prevent a common and distressing bowel condition called Low Anterior Resection Syndrome (LARS) after rectal cancer surgery. 160 participants will either receive their own intestinal fluid or plain water through their stoma. The goal is to see which approach better reduces bowel urgency, leakage, and frequency after the stoma is reversed.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple way to prevent severe bowel dysfunction after rectal cancer surgery, improving quality of life for many patients.
