Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to evaluate the increase of radiation dose administered in patients diagnosed with locally advanced rectal cancer in terms of ypRC with tolerable toxicity, using IMRT (concomitant boost technique).
Detailed Description:
The hypothesis that arises is an improvement in the proportion of pathological complete responses, resulting therapeutic gain, as a result of a higher dose of radiation delivered to the tumor volume without incurring a higher gastrointestinal toxicity to the patient or surgical complications later, thanks to the use of intensity modulated radiotherapy (concomitant boost technique) that allows us to significantly reduce the administered dose organs at risk.
