Summary

This study compares two treatments for locally advanced rectal cancer: a shorter course of radiation combined with chemotherapy (CAPOX) and an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) versus a longer course of chemoradiation plus the same immunotherapy. The goal is to see which approach leads to a complete disappearance of the cancer. About 130 adults aged 18-75 with a specific type of rectal cancer will participate.
