Brief Summary:
This study will examine the association between low muscle mass (myopenia) at diagnosis and chemotherapy toxicity in older adults with newly diagnosed advanced colorectal cancer.

Condition or disease
Colorectal Cancer Sarcopenia

Detailed Description:
This is a prospective cohort study that examines the impact of myopenia on chemotherapy toxicity in overall survival (OS) in older adults with newly diagnosed metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) receiving 5-Fluouracil (5FU)systemic chemotherapy. The study also explores the mediating influence of genetic variation in the association between myopenia and chemotherapy toxicity.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Chemotherapy Toxicities (Grade 3 - 5) [ Time Frame: Up to 6 months (after initiation of chemotherapy) ]
    Chemotoxicity will be measured after initiation of chemotherapy using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE).


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall Survival [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    Participants will be followed for the duration of the study with each participant followed for at least one year after diagnosis, to determine vital status. Loss-to-follow-up will be minimized by asking participating sites to provide date of last contact every 3 months.


Biospecimen Retention:   Samples With DNA

Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement:
Plan to Share IPD: Yes
Plan Description: Wake Forest NCORP Research Base is committed to following the NIH Statement on Sharing Research Data (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-03-032.html). As of July 2018, the WF NCORP RB signed an agreement with NCI to contribute de-identified data and data dictionaries from clinical trials conducted through our RB to the NCI NCTN/NCORP data archive within 6 months of primary and non-primary publications of phase II/III and phase III trials to https://nctn-data-archive.nci.nih.gov/. This will become the primary means for sharing raw data, and we will adhere to the guidelines spelled out in the NCTN/NCORP Data Archive Usage Guide. De-identified data from studies not covered by the agreement (e.g., phase II and observational studies) will be made available upon request. All data files will be de-identified. De-identification procedures will meet the HIPAA criteria as detailed in the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 45, Section 164.514.
Time Frame: 6 months after publication for a 2 year duration
Access Criteria: upon to request to NCORP@wakehealth.edu
