Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study evaluates the addition of immunotherapy of PD-1 antibody in neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in microsatellite stability-high (MSI-H) locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). A total of 50 MSI-H LARC patients will receive 2 cycles of PD-1 antibody, followed by capecitabine plus irinotecan radiosensitized neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, and another 3 cycles of PD-1 antibody, finally received the total mesorectal excision (TME) and 6 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy of XELOX. The tumor response grade, adverse effects and long-term prognosis will be analyzed.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Treatment Arm

A total of 50 MSI-H LARC patients will receive 2 cycles of PD-1 antibody, followed by capecitabine plus irinotecan radiosensitized neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, and another 3 cycles of PD-1 antibody, finally received the total mesorectal excision (TME) and 6 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy of XELOX.

Drug: Capecitabine
During neo-CRT: 625mg/m2 bid Monday-Friday per week
Other Names:
  • Xeloda
  • Drug: Irinotecan
    During neo-CRT: 80mg/m2 qw (UGT1A1*28 6/6) or 65mg/m2 qw (UGT1A1*28 6/7)

    Radiation: Neoadjuvant Radiotherapy
    IMRT DT: 50Gy/25Fx

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Pathologic Complete Response Rate [The pathologic complete response rate was evaluated after surgery, which was scheduled 7-8 weeks after the end of chemoradiotherapy.]

      Pathologic Complete Response Rate

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Disease free survival [From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 36 months.]

      3 year disease free survival rate

    2. Local recurrence free survival [From date of randomization until the date of first documented pelvic failure, assessed up to 36 months.]

      3 year local recurrence free survival rate

    3. Overall survival [From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 36 months.]

      3 year overall survival rate

    4. Adverse effects [From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years]

      Chemoradiation-related or immunotherapy-related adverse events

    5. Surgical complications [The surgery was scheduled 7-8 weeks after the end of chemoradiotherapy. And the surgical complications were assessed up to 5 years from the surgery.]

      Surgical complications, such as intraoperative hemorrhage, anastomotic leakage, intestinal obstruction, etc.

    6. Performance Status (Zubrod-ECOG-WHO method), range 0-5. The higher scores mean a worse quality of life. [From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 10 years]

      Quality of life will be evaluated

    7. Karnofsky Performance Status, range 0-100. The higher scores mean a better quality of life. [From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 10 years]

      Quality of life will be evaluated

    8. Quality of Life Scale, range 0-60. It evaluates the quality of life from 12 aspects, including appetite, mental status, sleep quality, fatigue, etc. The higher scores mean a better quality of life. [From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 10 years]

      Quality of life will be evaluated
