NCT02438839 · Status: ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 108

Last updated 2026-01-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the present study is to investigate whether curative chemoradiation of low rectal cancer is feasible, safe and effective in a multicenter study with results comparable to those of single center studies.

Results from previous studies indicate that a considerable fraction of patients with low rectal cancer can be cured by a combination of radiation and chemotherapy alone and thus be spared from operation.
