Brief Summary: This is a multi-centre randomised trial comparing long course LC preoperative chemoradiation with short course SC preoperative radiotherapy for patients with localised T3 rectal cancer
Detailed Description: Objective

The objective is in patients with T3 clinically resectable carcinoma of the rectum to demonstrate that the local recurrence rate in patients treated with a long course LC of pre-operative radiotherapy with continuous infusion 5-FU is lower than that in patients treated with a short course SC of pre-operative radiotherapy with early surgery

Eligibility Criteria

The main eligibility criteria are that the patient has clinically resectable adenocarcinoma of the rectum a clinical stage T3 tumour whose lower border is within 12 cm of the anal verge and no evidence of distant metastases

Endpoints

Primary endpoint is local recurrence
Secondary endpoints are overall survival toxicity abdminoperineal resection rate quality of life

Treatment arms

SC arm Radiotherapy RT 25 Gy in 5 fr in 1 week to be followed by surgery within 1 week and 6 cycles of postoperative chemotherapy 5FUFolinic acid
LC arm RT 504 Gy in 28 fr in 5½weeks with 5FU 225 mgm2day throughout the course of RT to be followed by surgery 4-6 weeks after completion of RT 4 cycles of adjuvant 5FUFolinic acid will be given
