Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy such as oxaliplatin fluorouracil and leucovorin work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing Monoclonal antibodies such as bevacizumab can block tumor growth in different ways Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of rectal cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells Giving combination chemotherapy and bevacizumab together with radiation therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed

PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying how well giving combination chemotherapy and bevacizumab with or without radiation therapy works in treating patients with locally advanced rectal cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy comprising oxaliplatin fluorouracil leucovorin calcium FOLFOX and bevacizumab can be substituted for pelvic radiotherapy without compromising R0 resection rates in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer

Secondary

Determine whether a 3-year local recurrence rate of 10 can be achieved in patients treated with this regimen
Determine the proportion of patients who achieve a complete pathologic response after treatment with this regimen

OUTLINE This is a non-randomized open-label pilot study

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy Patients receive oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours and bevacizumab IV over 10 minutes on day 1 and fluorouracil IV continuously over 48 hours on days 1 and 2 in weeks 1 3 5 and 7 Patients then receive oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours and leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours on day 1 and fluorouracil IV continuously over 48 hours on days 1 and 2 in weeks 9 and 11 Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Within 3 weeks after completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy patients undergo restaging evaluation Patients with no evidence of disease progression by endorectal ultrasound ERUS pelvic MRI and CT scan of the chestabdomen AND who remain candidates for R0 resection may proceed directly to surgical resection within 4-6 weeks after completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy Patients with progressive disease who are not candidates for an R0 resection proceed to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy

Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy Patients undergo pelvic radiotherapy 5 days a week and receive concurrent fluorouracil IV continuously for 5½ weeks Within 4-7 weeks after completion of chemoradiotherapy patients undergo surgical resection

After completion of study treatment patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 5 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 36 patients will be accrued for this study
