Stage 0 Anal Cancer
Current Clinical Trials
Stage 0 anal cancer is carcinoma in situ. Rarely diagnosed, it is a very early
cancer that has not spread below the limiting membrane of the first layer of
anal tissue.
Standard treatment options:
Surgical resection is used for treatment of lesions of the perianal area not
involving the anal sphincter (approach depends on the location of the lesion in
the anal canal).
Current Clinical Trials
Check for U.S. clinical trials from NCI's PDQ Cancer Clinical Trials Registry that are now accepting patients with stage 0 anal cancer. The list of clinical trials can be further narrowed by location, drug, intervention, and other criteria.
General information about clinical trials is also available from the NCI Web site.
