Establishment of MRI Model for pTRG in Rectal Cancer With Establishment of

Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Rectal Cancer
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: pelvic MRI for establishing new mrTRG method
Registration Number
NCT05374044
Lead Sponsor
Peking University Cancer Hospital & Institute
Brief Summary

This study proposeto integrate a variety of imaging quantitative indicators to establish a new MRI-based tumor response regression(mrTRG) classification method. The accuracy of the established mrTRG classification method according pathology TRG(pTRG) will be tested. The ability of the established mrTRG classification method to predict prognosis will also be tested.

Detailed Description

The study included two part: one is a retrospective single-center cohort for analyzing quantitative MRI factors associated with pTRG, from which a new MRI-based tumor response regression(mrTRG) classification method will be established. The other is a prospective multi-center cohort for testing the accuracy of the established mrTRG classification according to pTRG; and also for validating the established mrTRG classification associated with survival.

rectal cancer with NATpelvic MRI for establishing new mrTRG methodThe patients are planned to receive neoadjvant therapy, and then receive radical surgery.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
pathological tumor regression grade(pTRG)within 2 weeks after surgery

pTRG is evaluated according to the AJCC system. pTRG0-1 is defined as good response, pTRG2 as moderate response, and pTRG3 as poor response. The pTRG is judged by two experienced pathologists working together. If there are any discrepancies, then a third senior pathologist is consulted for arbitration. there were any discrepancies, then a third senior pathologist was consulted. there were any discrepancies, then a third senior pathologist was consulted.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
local recurrence3 years from the data of surgery
distant metastasis3 years from the data of surgery

Distant metastastic lesion detected by follow-up CT which will be performed every 3 month for the first two year and every 6 month since the third year

Death3 years from the data of surgery

all cause death
