New treatment option for Colorectal Cancer Stage II
Official title Evaluating Whether an Educational Website Called Current Together After Cancer (CTAC) Improves Follow-up Care for Colorectal Cancer Survivors
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07018869
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- This phase III trial evaluates whether a web-based intervention called Current Together after Cancer (CTAC) works to increase the number of patients with surgically removed (resected) colorectal cancer who receive surveillance care that aligns with current guidelines (guideline-concordant). Surveillance care after resection of colorectal cancer is critical to detect potentially curable return of disease (recurrence), yet up to 60% of colorectal cancer survivors fail to receive surveillance.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- Time commitment: about 16 months
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
