Summary

This was a prospective phase II study on patients with locally advanced rectal cancer or local recurrence, to evaluate the pathological response and resectability of a neoadjuvant treatment based on the use of a combined treatment with VMAT-SIB and two drugs chemotherapy ( XELOX).

Conditions

  • Rectal Neoplasms

Interventions

RADIATION

VMAT-SIB

Radiation dose prescribed to PTV2 was 45 Gy (1.8 Gy/fraction), five sessions weekly in 25 daily fractions. A simultaneous boost was delivered on PTV1 with a total dose of 57.5 Gy (2.3 Gy/fraction). Dose-volume histograms (DVHs) were calculated for the PTV1, PTV2 and OARs. Patients were treated only if the relative variations of the bone markers between the images were within 3 mm along the three spatial directions. Planning and delivery processes underwent to systematic independent-check procedures.

DRUG

XELOX

The prescribed concurrent chemotherapy consisted of oxaliplatin infusion 130 mg/m2 on days 1, 17, 35 and capecitabine 1650 mg/m2 daily (825 mg/m² twice daily, 5 days/week) over all the treatment. An adequate blood count was necessary to start each chemotherapy infusion. Adjuvant chemotherapy was recommended on patients with high risk factors at pathological examination and decision was left to medical oncologists discretion.
