Summary

Background: Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and total mesorectum excision (TME) has become the standard therapy for the treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) to reduce the local recurrence rate, however, no improvement of distant metastasis rate was observed, and the incidence of postoperative local recurrence and distant metastasis can reach more than 25%. It is still a challenge for us to improve the RO resection rate of locally advanced rectal cancer and reduce the incidence of local recurrence and distant metastasis.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

CRT

total dose of radiotherapy was 40\~50Gy, a subdose of 1.8\~2Gy for continuous 5 weeks, 5 times/week.Then,5-FU infusion 400mg/m2 combined with LV 200mg/m2 over 24 h for 4 days/week during the first and fifth weeks of radiotherapy.Whereas,Capecitabine was administered orally at a dose of 825mg/m2 twice a day for 5 days of a week. Second staging and operation were performed in the sixth week after chemoradiotherapy.

PROCEDURE

FOLFIRI+beacizumab

Eligible patients received bevacizumab 5.0 mg/kg followed by irinotecan 125mg/m2 combined with LV 200mg/m2 followed by 5-FU bolus 400mg/m2,then 5-FU infusion 2.4\~3.0g/m2 over a 46-h period.Those agents were given for a 2-week cycle.Treatment was administered for six cycles. LARC was reevaluated and operated after 4\~8 weeks.
