简要总结
This study is a single-center, single-arm, prospective clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy of local excision followed by postoperative chemoradiotherapy in patients with early-stage low/ultra-low rectal cancer. The study plans to enroll 60 patients with T1-2N0M0 low/ultra-low rectal cancer.
详细描述
Baseline examnation: All enrolled patients in this study, in addition to routine laboratory and imaging examinations such as blood routine, blood biochemistry, serum tumor markers (Incl. CEA, CA-199, CA-724 β2-microglobulin, Ferroprotein), chest CT, abdominal and pelvic MRI, etc., were required to undergo KRAS, NRAS, BREF, PD-L1, MMR/MSS testings before surgery, and blood lymphocyte subgroups were analyzed before surgery.
All enrolled patients will first undergo local tumor resection. Adjuvant therapy will be initiated 4-6 weeks postoperatively based on pathological staging:
For pT1N0M0 patients without high-risk features:
Active surveillance OR Radiotherapy alone (Prescription: Pelvic field irradiation 45Gy in 25 fractions)
For pT2N0M0 or pT1N0M0 patients with adverse prognostic factors (including poorly differentiated histology, lymphovascular invasion, positive margins*, tumor infiltration beyond the outer third of the submucosal muscle layer（SM3 level）, or submucosal invasion >1mm):

研究组 & 干预措施
Local Tumor Excision +Postoperative Adjuvant Chemoradiotherapy
All enrolled patients will first undergo local tumor resection. Adjuvant therapy will be initiated 4-6 weeks postoperatively based on pathological staging:
For pT1N0M0 patients without high-risk features:
Active surveillance OR Radiotherapy alone (Prescription: Pelvic field irradiation 45Gy in 25 fractions)
For pT2N0M0 or pT1N0M0 patients with adverse prognostic factors:
Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy (Prescription:Pelvic field irradiation 45Gy in 25 fractions PLUS Local tumor bed boost 5.4Gy in 3 fractions；Concurrent chemotherapy: Oral capecitabine 825mg/m² twice daily)；For patients with positive margins after local excision: Re-excision followed by adjuvant chemoradiotherapy OR Dose-escalated chemoradiotherapy (Prescription: Pelvic field irradiation 45Gy in 25 fractions PLUS Local tumor bed boost 14.4Gy in 8 fractions)；
For patients with staging > pT2N0M0:
Total mesorectal excision (TME) Following treatment completion, patients will enter clinical follow-up surveillance.
