Trial Title: Phase II Study of Preoperative IMRT Combined With Capecitabine and Bevacizumab in Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer

NCT ID: NCT01871363

Condition: Locally Advanced Malignant Neoplasm

Conditions: Official terms:
Rectal Neoplasms
Neoplasms
Capecitabine

Conditions: Keywords:
Preoperative Chemoradiotherapy
Bevacizumab
Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer

Study type: Interventional

Study phase: Phase 2

Overall status: Unknown status

Study design:

Allocation: N/A

Intervention model: Single Group Assignment

Primary purpose: Treatment

Masking: None (Open Label)

Intervention:

Intervention type: Radiation
Intervention name: chemoradiation
Description: - radiotherapy: 50 Gy to the pelvis (25x 2 Gy on days 1-35, excluding weekends) .IMRT planing and technique with high energy photons will be used. All fields will be treated daily. Multileaf collimators will be used to shape individual radiation fields. Patients will be irradiated in a prone position with a full bladder and by using belly board to minimize exposure of the small bowel. - capecitabine 825 mg/m² p.o. twice daily on days 1-35 (including weekends), - bevacizumab: at dose 5 mg/kg on days -1, 15, 31. - Radical surgery (TME): to be undertaken ideally 6-8 weeks following completion of chemoradiation.
Arm group label: preoperative chemoradiation

Other name: Preoperative Radiotherapy With Capecitabine and Bevacizumab

Summary: Pathological complete response, (pCR) correlates with a favourable overall prognosis in locally advanced rectal cancer patients underwent preoperative chemoradiation, so obtaining a pCR might be beneficial. The aim of the study is to investigate safety and efficacy of preoperative IMRT combined with bevacizumab and capecitabine. primary endpoint is pathological complete remission rate.
