Brief Summary: Preoperative 5-FU-based 5-fluorouracil chemoradiotherapy CRT total mesorectal excision surgery and 4 cycles of adjuvant 5-FU - as established by CAOAROAIO-94 - is at present a standard of care for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer UICC stage II and III The phase III German CAOAROAIO-04 trial showed that the addition of oxaliplatin increased treatment efficacy in terms of early secondary efficacy endpoints eg the pCR-rate With a median follow-up of 50 months the primary endpoint of this trial - disease free survival - was significantly improved in the oxaliplatin-containing treatment arm 3-year disease-free survival DFS 712 versus 759 hazard ratio HR 079 95 confidence interval CI 064-098 p003 The hereby proposed randomized phase II trial CAOAROAIO-12 aims at finding novel and innovative aspects of rectal cancer treatment and will thus provide important information for defining the experimental arm in the upcoming large scale trial of the group Compared to the current standard in both study arms the sequence of the three treatment modalities is modified placing the chemotherapy block before surgery The pre-operative sequence of chemotherapy - chemoradiotherapy arm A has been shown to be feasible with no early tumor progression prior to definitive surgical resection in a small randomized phase II study from Spain The sequence chemoradiotherapy - chemotherapy arm B may be beneficial according to response kinetics considerations and by maintaining a highly effective local treatment in the first place Both approaches could avoid the problem of major compliance problems with post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy CAOAROAIO German Rectal Cancer Study Group
