Quick lab test during surgery could spare rectal cancer patients major operation

NCT ID NCT07337811

Summary

This study is testing a new surgical strategy for rectal cancer patients who have responded well to initial radiation treatment. During a minor surgery to remove the tumor, doctors will immediately analyze the tissue. If the analysis shows very little cancer remains, the patient avoids a major, life-altering surgery. The goal is to control the cancer while preserving bowel function and quality of life for 27 participants.
