Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the complete pathological response rate after the pre-operative treatment with panitumumab in combination with external pelvic radiotherapy;Secondary Objective: To assess safety, pathological downstaging, R0 (surgical margin >1 mm/CRM-) resection rate, sphincter-saving surgery, time of disease free survival and overall survival, correlation between bio-markers and pathological responses;Primary end point(s): Pathological Complete Response Rate (pCR);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: According to the therapeutic protocol timing, the surgery would be completed within 14 weeks from the patient's registration. Assuming that pathological results will be available 15 days later, the primary endpoint will me measured 16 weeks after the enrollment.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Pathological downstaging rate, sphincter saving surgery rate, disease-free survival, R0 resection rate, time to relapse following surgery, overall survival time, incidence and severity of adverse events, significant laboratory changes, changes in vital signs, incidence of concomitant medications, changes from baseline over time in Karnofski performance status.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The evaluation of secondary endpoints will be completed within 60 months from the enrollment
