Summary
This study tested whether adding an immunotherapy drug called APX005M to standard treatment helps people with advanced rectal cancer achieve a complete response (no cancer left after treatment). 58 adults with stage II or III rectal cancer at high risk took part. The goal was to see if the combination leads to better outcomes than standard therapy alone.
