ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new treatment approach for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer. Researchers want to see if combining long-term chemotherapy and radiation therapy with a specific chemotherapy drug called NALIRIFOX can improve treatment outcomes. This trial is currently recruiting participants aged 18 to 75 who have been diagnosed with rectal adenocarcinoma and have not received any previous cancer treatments. To be eligible, participants should have good overall health, as assessed by their doctor's evaluation.

If you join this trial, you will receive a detailed plan for treatment that includes chemotherapy and radiation before any surgery. Throughout the study, you will be monitored closely for your health and how well the treatment is working. It’s important to note that there are specific health criteria you need to meet to participate, and the study will exclude individuals with certain medical conditions or past treatments that could interfere with the trial. Overall, this trial aims to find a more effective way to treat rectal cancer, potentially leading to better outcomes for patients in the future.

• • ③ Renal function: Serum creatinine (Cr) ≤1.5 × ULN or creatinine clearance ≥60 mL/min.
• • ④International Normalized Ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 ULN, Prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ≤ 1.5 ULN
• • 9. Microsatellite Stability (MSS) or proficient MisMatch Repair (pMMR).
• Exclusion Criteria:
• • 1. Within 4 weeks prior to treatment, subjects must not have received radiotherapy, surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy for tumors, molecular targeted therapies, or other investigational drugs.
• • 2. microsatellite instability (MSI) or mismatch repair gene deletion (dMMR)
• • 3. Distant metastasis
• • 4. Significant clinical bleeding symptoms or significant bleeding tendency within 3 months prior to treatment (bleeding \> 30ml within 3 months), hematemesis, black stool, blood in the stool), hemoptysis (\> 5 mL of fresh blood within 4 weeks), etc. Treatment of venous/venous thrombotic events within the first 6 months, such as cerebrovascular accidents (including transient brain lesions) Ischemic attack, cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction), deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism; Or need to use warfarin or Long-term anticoagulant therapy with heparin, or long-term antiplatelet therapy (aspirin ≥300 mg/day or chlorine) is required Picogrel ≥75 mg/day).
• • 5. During screening, tumors were found to invade large vascular structures, such as pulmonary artery, superior vena cava or inferior vena cava that there was a risk of major bleeding by the investigator judged.
• • 6. Active heart disease, including myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina, occurred 6 months before treatment. ultrasonic Left ventricular ejection fraction \<50% was detected by cardiogram, indicating poor arrhythmia control.

Any other disease with clinically significant metabolic abnormalities, physical abnormalities, or laboratory abnormalities Often, in the investigator's judgment, there is reason to suspect that the patient has a disease or condition that is not suitable for use of the investigational drug state (such as having a seizure and requiring treatment) that will either affect the interpretation of the study results or make the patient In a high-risk situation.
• • 13. Patients who have been co-administered a potent CYP3A4 inducer within 3 weeks prior to first dosing, or a potent CYP3A4 inhibitor or a potent UGT1A1 inhibitor within 3 weeks prior to first dosing
• • 14. Inability to comply with study protocols or study procedures.
• • 15. Patients who are not suitable to participate in this trial judged by the investigator.
