Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The question of how to administer adequate chemotherapy and immunotherapy to synchronise hypofraction radiotherapy (HFRT) treatment strategy to maximise the benefits of neoadjuvant therapy for the improved prognosis of patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC).We aimed to study whether chemotherapy and tislelizumab plus split-course HFRT results in better outcomes in LARC patients.
