Summary

This trial aims to evaluate the safety of a common cancer treatment called low anterior resection (LAR). The goal is to define major complications associated with this treatment as a way to compare its safety with

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who are set to have a specific surgery (low anterior resection with diverting loop ileostomy) for colorectal cancer. They should be relatively active and able to care for themselves (ECOG ≤ 2), and willing to follow the study's procedures and visits.
What is being tested?
The SafeHeal study is testing the safety of standard low anterior resection treatment for colorectal cancer by defining major complications. This will help compare its safety against other treatments by creating a new single safety endpoint.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on assessing safety, side effects may include typical surgical complications such as infection, bleeding, pain at the surgery site, bowel obstruction or leakage from where the intestine was sewn together.
