Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the treatment of patients with locally advanced rectal cancer for complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy without the use of radiation and surgery.


Clinical Trial Description

These patients will be evaluated for complete clinical response (cCR) after completing 10 cycles of FOLFOX (fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin) chemotherapy, with interval analysis after six cycles. Patients who have stable or progressive disease will be treated per discretion of the treating physician following multidisciplinary discussion. Those determined to have partial or complete response will complete full neoadjuvant treatment and undergo close surveillance with watchful waiting for local recurrence without immediate surgery. The primary endpoint of this study will be the rate of cCR, which is to include complete and near complete clinical response, with secondary endpoints of disease free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), quality of life (QOL), as well as evaluation of safety and toxicity. ;
