Brief Summary: This is a single arm phase II trial with combined celecoxib, tegafur-uracil, folinate and preoperative radiotherapy for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer. The primary end point is pathological complete response (pCR) rate. The secondary endpoints are toxicities of combined celecoxib and chemoradiation, negative resection margin rate, clinical tumor response by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), sphincter preservation rate, disease-free survival and overall survival.
Detailed Description: The primary objective is to determine the pathological complete response (pCR) of combining preoperative tegafur-uracil, folinate, radiation and celecoxib for locally advanced rectal cancer. The secondary objectives of this study are to determine: 1. Toxicity profile of combining celecoxib, tegafur-uracil, folinate and preoperative radiation for locally advanced rectal cancer. 2. Negative resection margins (circumferential resection margin) rate. 3. Downstaging rate. 4. Sphincter preservation rate 5. Locoregional and distant failure rate. 6. Overall survival
