NCT ID NCT06204497

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study tested whether a temporary stent placed inside the bowel could replace a traditional ileostomy (a bag outside the body) after rectal cancer surgery. 570 patients at high risk for leaks were randomly assigned to either the stent or ileostomy. The goal was to see if the stent could reduce hospital stays, lower costs, and improve quality of life without increasing serious complications.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Rectal adenocarcinoma confirmed pathologically. 2. Rectal cancer patients with high-risk of anastomotic leakage(AL). 3. Age from over 18 to under 80 years. 4. Performance status of 0/1 on ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) scale. 5. ASA (American Society of Anesthesiology) score class I, II, or III. 6. Written informed consent. Definition of high-risk of AL (one of them): 1. Preoperative body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2; 2. Long-term use of glucocorticoids before surgery (≥2 weeks); 3. Poor general condition: Preoperative serum albumin was less than 30.0g/L after supportive treatment; or Preoperative renal replacement therapy (blood purification/hemodialysis) is required; or diabetes; 4. Preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy; 5. Distance between tumor and anal anus (baseline MRI) ≤7cm 6. The number of stapler used to cut the rectum during the operation ≥3; or the defect of anastomosis is observed; or Intraoperative leak test was positive. Exclusion Criteria: 1. History of previous rectectomy, except endoscopic mucosal resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection. 2. Familial Adenomatosis Polyposis Coli (FAP), Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colorectal Cancer (HNPCC), active Crohn's disease or active colitis ulcerosa. 3. History of unstable angina, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident within the past six months. 4. Groups who are particularly vulnerable include those who suffer from mental disease, cognitive impairment, severe illness, adolescents, illiterates, women during pregnancy or breast-feeding, etc. 5. Patients with severe complications who do not tolerate surgery or need emergency surgery due to complication (bleeding, obstruction or perforation) 6. Unable ot radical resection, or underwent Miles or Hartmann or TaTME procedure, or requirement of simultaneous surgery for other disease (except the gallblader or appendix due to benign lesion).
