The adoption of total mesorectal excision (TME) has standardized rectal cancer surgery and improved oncological outcomes. In locally advanced rectal cancer, neoadjuvant radio chemotherapy (NACRT) has further improved oncological benefit. Although these strategies result in good 5-year disease-free survival rates, they are associated with significant morbidity, in particular permanent long-term …
A phase II clinical trial compared standard TNT (mFolfox6 and CRT) with preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (CT) containing mFolfirinox in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer.
This single-arm trial will explore the efficacy and safety of long-course neoadjuvant chemoradiation with liposomal irinotecan and capecitabine guided by UGT1A1 status in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer.
This is a randomized, prospective, multicenter, open-label, Phase III clinical trial to evaluate node-sparing modified short-course radiation (Radiation targeting the tumor bed without irradiating surrounding tumor-draining lymph nodes) combined with CAPOX and PD-1 Inhibitor (Tislelizumab) compared with standard short-course radiation combined with CAPOX for patients with MSS middle and low …
This phase II multicenter, randomized study evaluates the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant short-course radiotherapy (SCRT) sequentially combined with AK112 (Envafolimab) with or without chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). The study also aims to identify biomarkers predicting tumor response and develop efficacy prediction models.
On the basis of our previous study, this project further explored whether patients with effective neoadjuvant chemotherapy can obtain a higher organ preservation rate after total neoadjuvant therapy. This study was designed to enroll patients with low and intermediate-risk rectal cancer. After 2 cycles of XELOX chemotherapy, patients with effective …
This study is being done to answer the following questions: Is the chance of rectal cancer responding the same if chemotherapy alone is given before limited surgery compared to chemotherapy and radiation therapy given together before limited surgery? If radiation therapy is not given, is quality of life better?
Patients with locally advanced non-metastatic adenocarcinoma of the rectum undergoing chemoradiation therapy will be assigned to 2 groups: the intervention group will be prescribed an individualized ketogenic eating plan to be followed throughout the treatment period the control group will be prescribed a diet therapy plan treatment following the international …
Until 2020, the standard treatment for rectal cancer was a combination of radiotherapy and concomitant chemotherapy based on IV or oral 5FU, with a low complete response rate. The randomised phase 3 PRODIGE 23 trial evaluated a regimen of FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy prior to neoadjuvant RTCT, with 3-year disease-free survival as …
The goal of this observational trial with a nested randomized controlled trial is to investigate a selective approach of defunctioning stoma in low anterior resection in rectal cancer patients. The primary outcome is a hybrid so-called textbook outcome; stoma-free survival at two years without major LARS, reflecting a functionally appropriate …
