Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

chemotherapy, PD-1 inhibitor and Apatinib

Arm Description

Participants received 5 preoperative cycles of PD-1 inhibitor and chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6), 2 months of apatinib, followed by surgery. Apatinib,PD-1 inhibitor and chemotherapy needed to be stopped for 4-6 months before operation. 1 month after surgery, 7 cycles of mFOLFOX6 combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody were performed as adjuvant therapy.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Tumor regression rate of MSS/pMMR patients
Tumor regression rate (TRG) was evaluated by pathologist, using Dworak criteria. The percentage of TRG 2,3,4 to all person will be evaluated at time of radical resection of colon cancer following neoadjuvant treatment. Grade 0: no regression, Grade 1: dominant tumor mass with obvious fibrosis and/or vasculopathy; Grade 2: dominantly fibrotic changes with few tumor cells or groups (easy to find); Grade 3: very few (difficult to find microscopically) tumor cells in fibrotic tissue with or without mucous substance; Grade 4: no tumor cells, only fibrotic mass (total regression or response)

Secondary Outcome Measures

pathologic complete response (pCR) rates
Percentage of patients with pathological complete response assessed based on Dworak criteria
R0 resection rate
R0 resection accounted for the percentage of all surgical patients
The rate of 2 year Disease free survival (DFS)
Disease-free survival (DFS) is defined as the time from operation to recurrence of tumor or death. We will evaluate 2 year DFS.
overall survival (OS)
Refers to the time of death from enrollment to any cause
event free survival (EFS)
The period from the beginning of neoadjuvant therapy to the occurrence of any of the following events, whichever occurs first: tumor progression as assessed by RECIST 1.1; Tumor recurrence, including local recurrence or distant metastasis; Death from any cause;
perioperative complication rate
The complication rate of all patients during the period around the time of a surgical operation
mortality rate
the ratio between deaths and all patients in the study during treatment
