Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. cCR and pCR rates [1-year]

    Complete clinical response rate (cCR) after neoadjuvant therapy or complete pathological response rate (pCR) of patients undergoing surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Tumor regression grade (TRG) [1-year]

    Surgical excision specimens are taken every 1 cm, and the sections are given to at least 2 pathologists for independent scoring

  2. Objective response rate (ORR) [1-year]

  3. local regrowth rate after cCR [3-year]

  4. 3-year relapse-free survival [3-year]

    relapse-free survival refers to the period of time between the date of surgery and the day of the patient's tumor recurrence or death (earliest occurrence).

  5. 3-year overall survival [3-year]

    For patients who still survive when the final analysis takes place, the date of the last 1 contact will be recorded.

  6. Patients' quality of life [3-month, 6-month, 9-month, 12-month, 18-month, 24-month]

    The European Organization for Research and Treatment (EORTC)-QLQ-C30 HRQL questionnaire was assessed with repeated measures at regular intervals postoperatively at months 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24

  7. Acute toxicity associated with Envafolimab [from the beginning of treatment to 90 days after the end of Envafolimab]

    According to the NCI CTCAE v5.0 assessment, the proportion of patients with treatment-related acute toxicity developed from the beginning of treatment to 90 days after the end of Envafolimab
