Study Summary

This phase II/III trial studies how well circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) testing in the blood works in predicting treatment for patients with stage IIA colon cancer after surgery. ctDNA are circulating tumor cells that are shed by tumors into the blood. Finding ctDNA in the blood means that there is very likely some small amounts of cancer that remain after surgery. However, this cancer, if detected, cannot be found on other tests usually used to find cancer, as it is too small. Testing for ctDNA levels may help identify patients with colon cancer after surgery who do benefit, and those who do not benefit, from receiving chemotherapy.

Primary Outcome

A two by two contingency table of clearance by treatment arm will be created. The one-sided Fisher exact p-value will be used to determine futility based on the rule specified. Degenerate tables where the Fisher p-value cannot be calculated (no patients clear on either arm or all patients clear on both arms) will count as a failure and a recommendation for early termination.
