Pd1 Antibody Sintilimab ± Chemoradiotherapy for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
Colorectal Cancer Stage II, Colorectal Cancer Stage III
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Colorectal Cancer Stage II
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Histologically proven colorectal adenocarcinoma;
- Cohort 1: Biopsy tissues with IHC indicates deficient mismatch repair(dMMR),that is,the loss of at least one of the four proteins ,MSH1,MSH2,MSH6,PMS2;or gene detection implies MSI-H; Cohort 2: Biopsy tissues with IHC indicates proficient mismatch repair(pMMR),that is positivity of all four proteins ,MSH1,MSH2,MSH6,PMS2;or gene detection implies MSS/MSI-L
- Clinical stage for rectal cancer patients is cT3-4N0M0 or cTxN+M0;
- Preoperative staging methods: all patients need to accept digital rectal examination(DRE).Patients with rectal cancer undergo high-resolution MRI±ultrasound colonoscopy/transrectal ultrasound for preoperative staging. Perienteric lymph nodes with short diameter ≥10mm or the shape of lymph nodes and its MRI characteristics are consistent with typical lymph node metastasis. If endoscopic ultrasonography is used in combination, and there is a contradiction between staging methods, the data should be submitted to the evaluation team of our center for the accurate staging;
- No symptoms of ileus; or ileus is alleviated after proximal colostomy.
- No rectal surgery except preventative stoma;
- No chemotherapy or radiotherapy;
- No biotherapy (e.g.monoclonal antibodies), immunotherapy (e.g.anti-PD-1 antibody,anti-PD-L1 antibody,anti-PD-L2 antibody or CTLA-4 antibody),or other clinical trials agents;
- No limit to previous endocrine therapy.
- Age between 18 and 75 years;
- ECOG performance status of 0 or 1;
- Life expectancy: more than 2 years;
- Hematopoietic: WBC>3×109/L;PLT>80×109/L; Hb>90g/L;
- Hepatic: ALT and AST<2 times upper limit of normal (ULN); bilirubin<1.5 times ULN;
- Renal: creatinine <1.5 times ULN or creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Arrhythmias require antiarrhythmic therapy (with the exception of β-blockers or digoxin), symptomatic coronary artery disease or local myocardial ischemia (myocardial infarction within the past 6 months) or congestive heart failure exceeding NYHA II;
- Severe hypertension with poor control after medication;
- A known history of testing positive for HIV or chronic hepatitis B or C (high copy virus DNA) at active stage;
- Patients with active tuberculosis (TB) are receiving anti-tuberculosis treatment or have received anti-tuberculosis treatment within 1 year before screening;
- Other active severe clinical infections (NCI-CTC5.0);
- Apparent distant metastasis away from the pelvic before surgery;
- Cachexia, organ function decompensation;
- Previous pelvic or abdominal radiotherapy;
- Multiple primary colorectal cancers;
- Epilepsy require medical treatment (such as steroid or antiepileptic therapy);
- Other malignancy within the past 5 years with the exception of effectively treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix or basal cell carcinoma of the skin;
- Drug abuse and medical, psychological or social factors that may interfere with patients' participation in the study or affect the evaluation of the study;
- Patients have any active autoimmune diseases or a history of autoimmune diseases(including but not limited to: interstitial pneumonia, uveitis, enteritis, hepatitis, hypophysitis, nephritis, hyperthyroidism and decreased thyroid function; patients with vitiligo or with complete remission of asthma in childhood and without any intervention in adulthood may be included; patients with asthma requiring bronchodilators intervention are not included.
- Received any anti-infection vaccine (e.g. influenza vaccine, chickenpox vaccine, etc.) within 4 weeks before enrollment;
- Complications require long-term treatment with immunosuppressive drugs, or requiring systemic or local use of immunosuppressive corticosteroids(>10mg/day prednisone or other therapeutic hormones);
- Known or suspected allergy to the study drugs or to any drugs related to this trial;
- Any unstable condition or which endangers the patients' safety and compliance;
- Pregnant or breast-feeding women who are fertile without effective contraception;
- Refuse to sign the informed consent.

After 4 cycles of neoadjuvant sintilimab treatment, the patients and doctors could choose one of the following treatments: (1) surgery, followed by 4 cycles of adjuvant sintilimab with or without Capeox chemotherapy; (2) another 4 cycles of sintilimab, followed by radical surgery or observation (only for patients with clinical complete response).
After four cycles of neoadjuvant Sintilimab, Capeox and radiotherapy, the patients and doctors could choose one of the following treatments: (1) curative surgery and four cycles of adjuvant Capeox chemotherapy;(2)four cycles of Capeox chemotherapy then observation (only for patients with clinical complete response after neoadjuvant therapy)
