Delivering systemic chemotherapy between concurrent capecitabine-based long-term radiotherapy and total mesorectal excision (TME) surgery would be more effectively improved local control rates and improved metastases-free survival rates. The investigators attempted to investigate the effect on pathological response of delivering 4 cycles XELOX between concurrent capecitabine-based long-term radiotherapy and TME with lengthening the interval from radiation to surgery. In this study, the participants with high risk of deeper infiltration, or extramural vessel invasion, or circumferential resection margin involvement, or surrounding organs and structures invaded et al. were recruited. The participants will be randomized (1:1 ratio) to a control and intervention arm. The participants in the control arm will receive best current practice of concurrent capecitabine-based long-term radiotherapy followed by TME and then a 6 cycles of XELOX as standard adjuvant chemotherapy. The participants in the intervention arm will receive concurrent capecitabine-based long-term radiotherapy followed by 4 cycles XELOX as neoadjuvant chemotherapy pre- a delayed TME.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '75 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
