Chemotherapy Combined With High-dose Radiotherapy for Low Rectal Cancer Using Magnetic Resonance Guided Radiotherapy Linear Accelerator：A Prospective Phase 2 Trial

Обзор

The incidence rate of colorectal cancer is third in male tumors and second in female tumors. The newly diagnosed incidence of colorectal cancer is no less than 100 thousand in China, which poses a great threat to people's health and a heavy burden of public health. Preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy combined with radical surgery is recommended for locally advanced rectal cancer. Low rectal cancer accounts for about one third of all rectal cancer cases. Due to the particularity of its location，surgical complications and postoperative patients need permanent colostomy (artificial anus) to solve the defecation problems, which has a serious impact on the patients' work and life. How to improve the quality of life of patients without reducing the survival rate has become an important topic in the treatment of low rectal cancer. Previous studies have shown that the prognosis of patients with pathological complete remission (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer is optimistic. The clinical efficacy of "observation and waiting" is good. The results of small sample exploratory clinical studies of radical radiotherapy and chemotherapy for low rectal cancer are satisfactory, and MR-linear accelerator can be used for precision radiotherapy for colorectal cancer. This study is aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of radical radiotherapy boost for low rectal cancer by using magnetic resonance guided radiotherapy system, and further evaluate the impact of boost on the quality of life of patients.

Подробное описание

It is a prospective phase II, non-randomized controlled designed clinical study. For the optimal design, 58 cases of low rectal adenocarcinoma without metastasis were divided into queue 1 and queue 2 according to the start time of boost. MR-linear accelerator was used for dose boost of the local tumor region to make it reaching the radical radiotherapy dose. At the same time, fluorouracil based chemotherapy was given according to stages.

The primary endpoint was 3-year progression free survival rate. The secondary end points were 3-year stoma free survival rate, 3-year local regeneration rate, 3-year disease-free survival rate, 3-year distant metastasis rate, 3-year overall survival rate, short term and long-term toxic and side effects, and patients' quality of life scale 1-3 years after treatment.
