Conventional Versus Laparoscopic-Assisted Surgery in Colorectal Cancer
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating conventional surgery and laparoscopic surgery for Colorectal Cancer. Completed, enrolled 1,200 participants across 13 sites.
Detailed Summary
RATIONALE: Laparoscopic-assisted surgery is a less invasive type of surgery for colorectal cancer and may have fewer side effects and improve recovery. It is not yet known if undergoing conventional surgery is more effective than laparoscopic-assisted surgery for colorectal cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying conventional surgery to see how well it works compared to laparoscopic-assisted surgery in treating patients with colorectal cancer.
