Summary
This study aims to find out if certain substances in the body (called metabolites) can predict how well rectal cancer responds to chemotherapy and radiation before surgery, and whether severe side effects like radiation proctitis will occur. Researchers will collect blood, urine, tissue, and stool samples from 250 participants before, during, and after treatment. The goal is to develop a test that helps doctors personalize treatment plans.
