In this case-only study, the investigators try to define a novel staging parameter, the Primary Tumor Burden Score (PTBS), which will combine the proportion of residual primary tumor cells and pre-treatment pathological T stage (prepT stage). The investigators will also try to improve ypTNM stage by results of PTBS.
