Overview
Brief Summary
Short-course radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy may bring revolutionary changes to the preoperative neoadjuvant treatment mode for locally advanced rectal cancer. According to the existing theory, the use of PD-L1 monoclonal antibody after short-course radiotherapy may be the best solution. In this study, the investigators will perform single-cell sequencing of participants tissue samples, fully explore the multi-dimensional omics information of tumors and microenvironments, explore the characteristics of the treatment benefit population, and try to construct an efficacy prediction model to screen the treatment benefit population early and implement precise treatment.

Arms & Interventions
Preoperative Short-course Radiation followed by Envafolimab plus CAPEOX
The enrolled patients with MSS-type advanced middle-low rectal cancer will receive a combined regimen of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy combined with immunotherapy and total mesorectal excision (TME surgery). 1. Radiotherapy uses a short-range mode, irradiating the primary tumor and high-risk areas with dose of 25 Gy. 2. After radiotherapy, PD-L1 antibody (150mg/week, subcutaneous injection × 6 weeks) immunotherapy combined with two courses of CAPEOX chemotherapy was performed. 3. Two weeks after the end of the combined treatment plan in step 2), TME surgery is performed.
Intervention: Envafolimab

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the pathologic complete response (pCR) rate following short-course radiation then Envafolimab Plus CAPEOX
Time Frame: Up to 10 weeks (once surgery is done)
pCR was defined as the absence of viable tumour cells in the resected primary tumour specimen and all sampled regional lymph nodes (ypT0N0).
Secondary Outcomes
