Arm Description

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with XELOX: Xeloda, po, 1000mg/m2/12h daily, day 1 in the afternoon until day 15 in the morning; Oxaliplatin, iv, 130mg/m2, day 1; and Bevacizumab, iv, 7.5 mg/kg, day 1, during the first cycle (each cycle has 3 weeks). Followed by chemoradiotherapy, 50 Gy/25 fractions during 5 weeks plus 2 cycles XELOX and Bevacizumab: Xeloda, po, 1000mg/m2/12h daily, day 1 in the afternoon until day 15 in the morning; Oxaliplatin, iv, 100mg/m2, day 1; and Bevacizumab, iv, 7.5 mg/kg, day 1. 6-7 weeks from the last radiation therapy, Total Mesorectal Excision (TME) surgery will be performed. 3-4 weeks after operation, 3 cycles XELOX (the same as the neoadjuvant chemotherapy) and 2 cycles Xeloda (po, 1000mg/m2/12h daily, day 1 in the afternoon until day 15 in the morning) will be administered.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
We presumed that the addition of a monoclonal antibody Bevacizumab into radiation therapy and combination chemotherapy could results in improved pathologic tumor regression grade (TRG) in locally advanced nonmetastatic rectal cancer.
Detailed Description
Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Giving bevacizumab together with radiation therapy and combination chemotherapy before surgery may achieve promising improvements in pCR rates, we designed this Phase II study in patients with T3/4 or N1/2 loco-regionally advanced rectum cancer, to examine the efficacy and safety of the addition of bevacizumab to a regimen of capecitabine and oxaliplatin in combination with pre-operative radiation.
