Total Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy Plus Anti-PD-1 in Subperitoneal Patients With Locally Advanced Rectal CancerPatients With Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer: A Prospective, Single Arm, Exploratory Study

Previously, preliminary results, from a subgroup analysis of STARS-RC03 (NCT04906044) conducted by our research team, showed that the 6-cycles consolidation chemotherapy combining with anti-PD-1 therapy had a better tumor regression advantage with a restricted safety profile contrasted with 3-cycle counterparts. Herein, we designed this study to further evaluate the short-term efficacy (such as pCR rate, R0 resection rate, etc.) and long-term survival (including DFS, OS, etc.) of 6-cycles consolidation therapy.
