Breakthrough rectal cancer therapy could spare patients from permanent colostomy
NCT ID NCT07068763
First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 19 times
Summary
This study tests a new approach for people with early-stage rectal cancer that hasn't spread to lymph nodes. Instead of standard radiation to the whole pelvis, doctors give a short course of radiation only to the tumor, followed by chemotherapy and two types of immunotherapy. The goal is to shrink the cancer enough so that some patients may not need surgery at all, preserving the rectum and avoiding a permanent colostomy bag. About 52 adults with a specific genetic type (MSS) will take part.
