Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Poor functional outcomes has been reported inevitably, and up to 90% of the patients have experienced bowel habit changes after sphincter-saving surgery for rectal cancer. But, currently there has been no specific treatment for ARS and symptom based empirical management is tried Recently, 5-HT3 receptor antagonists can be used for treatment of IBS-D, and has been revealed to be slowing the bowel movement and improving stool consistency and urgency.

We performed the clinical trial with using ramosetron (Irribow®) for the treatment of ARS
