Exclusion criteria: • Distant metastases (excluded by CT scan) • cT4 tumor (excluded by MRI and EUS) • Risk of tumor involvement of the circumferential resection margin, according to the MRI assessment • Sphincter sparing as the major reason for choosing the neoadjuvant treatment approach • Prior antineoplastic therapy for rectal cancer
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective of the study is to estimate the efficacy of panitumumab concurrent to radiotherapy in patients with wild-type RAS. The rate of pathological complete remissions will be compared to expectations derived from historical data.;Secondary Objective: - Safety of the combination (Toxicity assessment according to NCI CTCAE V.3) - Surgical morbidity and complications - Pathological staging, tumor downstaging; assessed by pTNM findings in relation to initial cTNM staging; regression grading according to Dworak - Clinical response (rates of CR/PR/SD/PD after neoadjuvant treatment) - Biomarker studies (KRAS, NRAS, BRAF, PI3K-Akt, PTEN, EGFR);Primary end point(s): pCR rate, defined by the number of patients with a pCR finding divided by the number of patients recruited and having received at least one application of antitumor therapy;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At surgical resection of the rectal tumor | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Safety of the combination (Toxicity assessment according to NCI CTCAE V.4) 2. Surgical morbidity and complications 3. Pathological staging, tumor downstaging; assessed by pTNM findings in relation to initial cTNM staging; regression grading according to Dworak 4. Clinical response (rates of CR/PR/SD/PD after neoadjuvant treatment) 5. Biomarker studies (KRAS, BRAF, PI3K-Akt, PTEN, EGFR);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. During radio-"immunotherapy" 2. At surgery and 4 weeks after surgery 3. At surgical resection of the rectal tumor 4. At surgical resection of the rectal tumor 5. At inclusion in the study and at surgical resection of the rectal tumor | — |
