During this visit, the study will be explained them and their consent obtained. They will then be randomized between the two groups 7 weeks vs. 11 weeks. Patients were reviewed 15 days before surgery and at 1 and 3 months after surgery. Participation in this study does not change treatment, investigations and consultations usually necessary for management of rectal cancer. The objective is to improve the pathological complete response rate of the rectal cancer.', 'detailedDescription': 'D0: Visit of inclusion and randomization After the end of chemoradiotherapy, the patient is seen in consultation by her / him a surgeon who propose him to participate in the study. At the end of the visit if the patient agrees to participate in it, the investigator at each center will conduct the collection of written consent to the inclusion of the patient. Inclusion will be recorded in the electronic Case Report Form (e-CRF) by the investigator at each center. Randomization (7 or 11 weeks of delay) is performed by the surgeon via the software module CleanWeb randomization.\n\nM1- 1.5 or M2.5 depending of the group randomisation A consultation with the surgeon is held within 15 days (+/- 5 days) of intervention to check the clinical response (tumor regression in rectal tumor distance from the dentate line) and planify surgery. During this visit, the surgeon noted in the e-CRF, clinical findings of the lesion and the results of further investigations.\n\nNot specific exam is requested in the study.\n\nM2 or M3\n\nSurgical procedure:\n\nThe anesthesia consultation is planned before the surgery according to the habits of service. Participation in the study does not alter the anesthetic procedures.The patient is admitted the day before surgery in the surgical ward.\n\nDuring surgery, the operating data are provided on the e-CRF (digital rectal examination under general anesthesia, type of surgery (anterior resection or abdominal-perineal resection), operative time, intraoperative bleeding, macroscopic appearance of the mesorectum, distance from the distal limit of resection). The postoperative complications are noted by the surgeon in the e-CRF during hospitalization (about 10-15 days), and data reporting pathological (Annex 2).\n\nPathological examination of the specimen of proctectomy is performed according to recommendations for clinical practice using the standard form (Annex 2). The tumor response is evaluated by inclusion of all residual tumor and the response to chemoradiotherapy is graded with the scale of Rödel (Annex 5). A double reading of slides will be made for each patient by two independent pathologists blinded to the randomization group of the patient.\n\nM2 - M5 or M3 - M6 :\n\nPostoperative follow-up :\n\nFollowing the intervention, no specific consultation is necessary. At follow-up consultations (1 month, 3 months) the surgeon evaluate the postoperative course, planify the stoma closure, noted the potential adverse events and results of morphological examinations (computed tomography, ultrasound, endoscopy) and biological (markers) eventually prescribed.\n\nM6 - M60 :\n\nCancer surveillance :\n\nRegular follow-up every 3-4 months fo the first two years and every 6 months for the last remaining 3 years (clinical examination, CT-scan and biological marker (CEA))'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* age over 18 years, no age limit higher\n* Performance status evaluated by the Eastern CooperativeOncology Group (ECOG) score: 0-1,\n* Patients with cancer of the middle or lower rectum (lesion located within 10 cm from the dentate line or 12 cm from the anal margin) proved by pathology,\n* T3-T4N0, TxN+ on ultrasound-endoscopy and MRI, without secondary localization (M0) on the thoracoabdominal (or chest radiography and abdominal ultrasound)\n* Patient who received a protocol between 45-51 Gy of radiotherapy and chemotherapy based on 5-fluorouracil for an average duration of 5 weeks for the management of rectal cancer,\n* Curative surgical treatment planned following radiochemotherapy with total mesorectal excision,\n* Free and informed consent signed by the patient,\n* Patient affiliated to a social security scheme or beneficiary of such plan(except AME)\n* Patient able, according to the investigator, to comply with the requirements of the study.\n\nThe cessation of chemotherapy during radiotherapy does not exclude the patient from the study.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patient with metastasis,\n* T1 or T2N0 tumor classified by echo-endoscopy and MRI,\n* rectal tumor with lower pole is more than 12 cm from the anal margin or 10 cm from the dentate line,\n* Patient did not complete the full protocol of radiotherapy,\n* History of tumors (other than basal cell carcinoma and / or carcinoma in situ of the cervix) old less than 10 years\n* A patient with impaired or incompetent investigator by not allowing him a good understanding of the requirements of the study,\n* Person under guardianship, persons under guardianship, persons deprived of their liberty by judicial or administrative body, adult subject to legal protection or unable to consent,\n* Patient did not complete the full protocole of chemotherapy,\n* Pregnant or lactating women.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01648894', 'acronym': 'GRECCAR6', 'briefTitle': 'Influence of Lengthening the Interval Between Radiochemotherapy and Surgery on Complete Pathological Response in Rectal Cancer', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris'}, 'officialTitle': 'Randomized Control Trial Comparing the Impact of a Lengthening of the Interval Between the Radiochemotherapy and Surgery (7 Weeks vs. 11 Weeks) on Complete Pathological Response in Rectal Cancer', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'P 110125'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'AOM 11304', 'type': 'OTHER', 'domain': 'Assistance Publique'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': '11 weeks', 'description': 'The cancer surgery is practice 11 weeks after neoadjuvant radio-chemotherapy', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Surgery after 11 weeks of delay after chemoradiotherapy.']}, {'type': 'OTHER', 'label': '7 weeks', 'description': 'The cancer surgery is practice 7 weeks after neoadjuvant radio-chemotherapy', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Surgery after 7 weeks of delay after chemoradiotherapy']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Surgery after 11 weeks of delay after chemoradiotherapy.', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'Surgery consists carcinological resection of the rectal cancer with total excision of the mesorectum after 11 weeks of delay after the end of chemoradiotherapy.', 'armGroupLabels': ['11 weeks']}, {'name': 'Surgery after 7 weeks of delay after chemoradiotherapy', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'Surgery consists carcinological resection of the rectal cancer with total excision of the mesorectum after 7 weeks of delay after the end of chemoradiotherapy', 'armGroupLabels': ['7 weeks']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '75012', 'city': 'Paris', 'country': 'France', 'facility': 'Saint-Antoine Hospital - AP-HP, Department of general and digestive surgery', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 48.85341, 'lon': 2.3488}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Jérémie Lefèvre, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Assistance Publique'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
