Exploratory Study on the Efficacy and Safety of Long-course Neoadjuvant Chemoradiation With Liposomal Irinotecan and Capecitabine Guided by UGT1A1 Status in Patients With Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
This single-arm trial will explore the efficacy and safety of long-course neoadjuvant chemoradiation with liposomal irinotecan and capecitabine guided by UGT1A1 status in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer.
