Scientific title | The role of endoluminal stenting in the acute management of obstructing colorectal cancer |
Study acronym | CReST |
Study objectives | For patients presenting acutely with obstructing left-sided colorectal cancer will be randomised between emergency surgery or endoluminal stenting. The aim of the study is to determine if endoluminal stenting results in: 1. A reduced perioperative morbidity as assessed by the length of hospital stay 2. Reduced perioperative morbidity 3. Reduced stoma formation |
Ethics approval(s) | Oxford Research Ethics Committee B, 22/10/2008, ref: 08/H0605/90 |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Obstructing colorectal cancer |
Intervention | An open randomised controlled trial where patients will be randomised between emergency surgery and endoluminal stenting. All patients will present in the acute setting and will be put forward for urgent decompression. Patients will be randomised between: 1. Endoluminal stenting 2. Surgical decompression with or without resection of the primary tumour |
Intervention type | Procedure/Surgery |
Primary outcome measure | Current primary outcome measures as of 13/03/2017: 1. Length of hospital stay, measured using site-completed trial-specific Case Report Forms at discharge and 12-month follow-up 2. 30-day mortality, measured using mortality data from ONS (also included on CRFs) at 30 days Previous primary outcome measures: 1. Length of hospital stay 2. 30-day mortality 3. Presence and duration of a stoma |
Secondary outcome measures | Current secondary outcome measures as of 13/03/2017: Data collection points were baseline (screening/randomisation/procedure); discharge; 6 weeks; every 3 months in first year; every 6 months to 3 years: 1. Presence and duration of stoma, measured using intraoperative and discharge Forms (emergency and elective surgery), annual follow up forms 2. Stenting completion and complication rates, measured using stent insertion and stent follow up forms, following stenting at day 7 and day 28 post-stenting and up to 12 months 3. Anastomosis rate, measured using intraoperative form and discharge form, following emergency and elective surgery up to 12 months and then annually 4. 6-month survival, measured using ONS mortality data (also collected on CRFs) at 6 months 5. Quality of life, measured using patient-completed EORTC QLQ C30, QLQ CR29 and EQ-5D at discharge, 3 months and 1 year 6. Proportion disease free at 3 years, measured using ONS Cancer Registry data (also collected on CRFs) at 3 years 7. Length of stay in HRU and ITU, measured using intraoperative and discharge forms following emergency and elective surgery, and discharge form following stenting 8. Perioperative morbidity, measured using intraoperative and discharge forms for emergency and elective surgery 9. Cost benefit analysis, assessed using discharge forms (for bed days) 10. Rate of adjuvant chemotherapy and adherence to chemotherapy protocol, measured using annual follow-up forms Previous secondary outcome measures: 1. Stenting completion and complication rate (arm A only). Complications will be recorded between 24 hours and 7 days (early) and between 7 and 28 days (late). 2. Anastomosis rate, recorded during surgery 3. Quality of life, measured by the EQ-5D and the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire for Cancer patients C29 and C30 at 6 weeks after surgery, then every 3 months for the first year, and every 6 months thereafter until 3 years 4. Proportion recurrence-free at three years (attempted curative surgery group only) 5. Length of stay on intensive treatment unit (ITU) and high-dependency unit (HDU) at 30 days post-operation 6. Perioperative morbidity 7. Cost benefit analysis |
