Radiation-protection Effect of Amifostine in Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer

January 19, 2019 updated by: Zhu Ji, Fudan University

A Phase II Trial of Capecitabine and Irinotecan With or Without Amifostine in Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy in Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer

The study evaluates the addition of Amifostine to capecitabine and irinotecan in neoadjuvant chemoradiation(CRT) in locally advanced rectal cancer. Half of participants will receive capecitabine and along with neoadjuvant radiotherapy, followed by a cycle of XELIRI, while the others will receive capecitabine and irinotecan added by amifostine during CRT, followed by a cycle of XELIRI. All participants will be scheduled to receive surgery 6-8 weeks after the completion of CRT. Then it will depends which regimens the patient would receive according to his or her pathological results.
