Summary

This is a randomized multicentric clinical trial in patients affected by resectable rectal cancer, cT2N1-2, cT3N0-2, MRF -, aiming to evaluate the impact of the interval between chemoradiotherapy and surgery on the pathological response.

Patients will undergo a neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy treatment and those achieving a major or complete clinical and instrumental response will then be randomized and submitted to surgery with two options: the first group will be operated after an interval of 9-11 weeks, while the second will undergo surgery at 13-16 weeks, after a further clinical and instrumental re-evaluation 11-12 weeks after the end of chemoradiotherapy.
