About this trial

The objectiive of this prospective, international cohort is to compare two anastomotic techniques (DS vs TTSS) by collecting data during the surgery, and postoperatively (morbidity and functional outcomes).

The choice of technique is left to the discretion of the surgeon based on her/his practices.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age ≥ 18

Patients with rectal cancer lower than 12 cm from the anal verge requiring either a stapling anastomosis below 7 cm from the anal verge,

Patients with powered mechanical anastomosis (INTOCARE devices)

Patients with no metastasis

Disqualifiers

Patients with handsewn anastomosis

Patients with perforated rectal cancer or preoperative pelvic sepsis ;

Patients with inflammatory bowel disease;

Patients operated on in emergency ;

Trial population

In this exploratory, observational, prospective, IDEAL stage 2b International cohort study, we aim to include 400 patients with resection rectal and low powered colorectal anastomosis. This study is to compare two anastomotic techniques (DS vs TTSS) by collecting data during the surgery, and postoperatively (morbidity and functional outcomes). Surgeons at each center perform one or both techniques. When both types of stapling are possible, the choice of technique is made by the surgeon during the preoperative consultation, in the best interest of the patients, after a case-by-case assessment.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

To assess and compare the rate of anastomotic leakage at 1 month after rectal excision between double and single-stapling low colorectal anastomosis using advanced powered stapler

Proportion of anastomotic leakage (clinical and radiological) at 1 month after rectal surgery between double- and single-stapling low colorectal anastomosis using advanced powered stapler.

Time frame
From the surgery to one month

Secondary outcomes

1

Overall morbidity and mortality rates at 1 month

Postoperative morbidity and mortality according Clavien-Dindo classification at 1 month

Time frame
At 1 month after the end of the surgery
2

The rate of anastomotic leakage at 6 and 12 months after rectal surgery;

Rate of defunctioning stoma at 1, 6 and 12 months after surgery;

Time frame
At 12 month after the end of the surgery

Quality of life with QLQ C30 questionnaire

The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire developed to assess the quality of life of cancer patients. This is a patients self-rating questionnaire that measures five functional scales (physical, role, social, emotional, and cognitive) three symptom scales (fatigue, pain, nausea and vomiting) A global health status / QoL scale, and a number of single items assessing additional symptoms commonly reported by cancer patients (dyspnea, loss of appetite, insomnia, constipation and diarrhea) and perceived financial impact of the disease. Scores can be linearly transformed to provide a score from 0 to 100 REF. Higher scores represent better functioning on the functional scales and a higher level of symptoms of the symptom scales. 9 dimensions will be assessed with: PF : Physical Functioning RF : Role Functioning CF : Cognitive Functioning EF : Emotional Functioning SF: Social Functioning FA : Fatigue PA : Pain NV : Nausea and Vomiting QL : Global health status

Time frame
At 1, 6 and 12 months after rectal surgery
4

Quality of life with QLQ CR29 questionnaire

The QLQ-CR29 (Quality of life of rectal cancer patients with 29 questions) has five functional and 18 symptom scales. Scores can be linearly transformed to provide a score from 0 to 100. Higher scores represent better functioning on the functional scales and a higher level of symptoms of the symptom scales.

Time frame
At 1,6 and 12 months after rectal surgery
