Summary

This study tests whether adding radiotherapy to a combination of chemotherapy (CAPOX) and an immunotherapy drug (Toripalimab) can improve outcomes for people with a specific type of locally advanced rectal cancer (MSS/pMMR). About 192 participants will receive either the drug combo alone or with short-course radiation before possible surgery. The goal is to see if the added radiation leads to more complete remissions, potentially allowing some patients to avoid surgery.
