Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Radiation therapy uses x-rays to damage tumor cells Drugs such as capecitabine may make the tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy

PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of capecitabine in combination with radiation therapy in treating patients who have unresectable residual or recurrent colorectal cancer located in the pelvis
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the maximum tolerated dose of oral capecitabine administered in combination with pelvic radiotherapy in patients with unresectable residual or locally recurrent cancer localized in the pelvis II Determine the tolerance of this regimen in these patients III Determine the preliminary evidence of therapeutic acticivity of this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is a dose-escalation study of capecitabine Patients receive oral capecitabine twice a day 7 days a week for 6 weeks with concurrent radiotherapy Radiotherapy is initiated on the same day as the initiation of capecitabine and is administered 5 days a week for 55-6 weeks Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of capecitabine until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is reached The MTD is defined as the dose at which 2 of 3 or 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 1 year

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A maximum of 51 patients will be accrued for this study
