Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
In this open-label phase II study, patients will be scheduled for neoadjuvant treatment with PD-1 antibody following preoperative Chemoradiotherapy with capecitabine for pMMR/MSS rectal cancer staged as locally advanced (cT3-T4N+/-M0 for rectal cancer). This treatment will be given during the window period until surgical resection of the tumor.
