In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Research Objectives and Principles: Through a prospective study, explore the effectiveness and safety of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in the treatment of unresectable locally recurrent rectal cancer (ULRRC), providing high-level evidence for the use of SBRT in ULRRC treatment. Primary Objective: 1-year local progression-free survival (LPFS) . Secondary Objectives: R0 resection rate and overall survival (OS), 2-year LPFS and OS, and side effects of the treatment. Study Design: A single-arm, open-label, prospective phase II study. Study Population and Expected Enrollment: Patients with unresectable locally recurrent rectal adenocarcinoma, with an expected enrollment of 40 patients. Scheduled Visits and Duration: December 2024 to November 2027. Trial Duration: December 2024 to November 2027. Intervention: SBRT for unresectable locally recurrent rectal cancer. Statistical Hy
