NCT01465451

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate efficacy and safety of intra-operative chemotherapy with 5-FU for colorectal cancer patients receiving curative resection. The hypothesis is intra-operative intervention might be the best timing for cancer cells killing by cytotoxic agents, when most of residual cancer cells may get a rapid growth after tumor debulking and may become more chemotherapy-sensitive. A three-step procedure is designed for intra-operative chemotherapy with 5-FU of 1500 mg/m2, including step 1 of intraluminal 5-FU injection with 1000 mg/m2 at beginning of resection, step 2 of 200mg/m2 5-FU injection into portal vein system via mesentery vein after tumor removal and finish of bowel reconstruction, and step 3 of 300mg/m2 5-FU left into the abdominal cavity before incision closure. The controlled arm receive curative resection only. All the other treatments will stick to the guidelines.

Study Arms (2)

ARM A- surgery alone

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

all cases will receive standard surgical procedures of curative resection for colorectal cancer, without intra-operative chemotherapy.

Procedure: curative resection for colorectal cancer

ARM B surgery plus chemotherapy

EXPERIMENTAL

all cases will receive standard surgical procedures described as arm A. In addition, all cases will receive 5-FU chemotherapy during operation.

Procedure: curative resection for colorectal cancerDrug: intra-operative 5-FU chemotherapy

Interventions

right hemicolectomy for right colon cancer, transverse colectomy for transverse colon cancer, left hemicolectomy for left colon cancer, sigmoid colectomy for sigmoid colon cancer, and anterior resection or abdominal-perineal resection for rectal cancer.

Also known as: curative resection for colorectal cancer.
ARM A- surgery aloneARM B surgery plus chemotherapy

5-FU, 1000 mg/m2, injection into bowel lumen at the beginning of resection 5-FU, 200 mg/m2, injection into portal vein via mesentery vein at the end of tumor removal and bowel reconstruction. 5-FU, 300 mg/m2, left in abdominal cavity before incision closure. surgical procedures will be the same as described in ARM A.

Also known as: intra-operative 5-FU chemotherapy for colorectal cancer
ARM B surgery plus chemotherapy
