  1. Chemoradiotherapy for Rectal cancer Dr. A . Sun Myint Lead Clinician GI Tumour Group Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland M62 Coloproctology Course - March 23rd 2007

  2. Background • In the UK over 10,000 new rectal cancer • Five year survival 50% (NBOCAP-2006) • Nearly half will develop recurrences • At presentation 30% T3/T4 N + MO • Preoperative radiotherapy reduce LR • So far, no survival advantage

  3. Treatment Options Options Improvements • Surgery TME / Training Sub specialisation • Radiotherapy Pre operative Chemoradiotherapy Post operative • Chemotherapy Advance /metastatic Adjuvant New agents

  4. Radiotherapy

  5. Preoperative Radiotherapy Short course or Long course? • Short course • Long course

  6. Preoperative Radiotherapy Short course or Long course? • Short course - Mobile operable tumour • Long course - Fixed / Tethered tumour 30%( MRI defined CRM +)

  7. Preoperative Radiotherapy Short course or Long course? • Short course - Mobile operable tumour • Long course - Fixed / Tethered tumour ( MRI defined CRM +)

  8. Improving Outcomes • Add chemotherapy to radiation • Increase radiation dose

  9. Chemo-radiotherapy Concurrent Chemotherapy + RT • 5FU • 5FU / FA • 5FU infusion + Irino / Oxaliplatin • Capecitabine + Irino / Oxaliplatin+ EGFR • Capecitabine + Irino / Oxaliplatin+ VEGFR

  26. Pre-operative 5-FU chemoradiation: • 5-FU-based chemoradiation has become part of standard pre-operative therapy for rectal cancer • effective downstaging • 10–30% pCR rates • Protracted infusion of 5-FU with postoperative radiotherapy improves survival versus bolus5-FU1 1O’Connell MJ et al. N Engl J Med 1994;331:502–7

  27. Infused versus bolus 5-FU during pelvic radiation Overall survival (%) Infused 5-FU (n=328) Bolus 5-FU (n=332) 100 80 60 40 20 0 Log rank p=0.005 Cox model p=0.01 0 1 2 3 4 Years after randomisation O’Connell MJ et al. N Engl J Med 1994;331:502–7

  28. Capecitabine + radiation

  29. capecitabine plus radiotherapy • Infused 5-FU is cumbersome and inconvenient for patients • Oral capecitabine simplifies chemoradiation and is highly appealing to patients • Potential for enhanced therapeutic ratio • capecitabine generates 5-FU preferentially in tumour via thymidine phosphorylase (TP)1 • radiotherapy further upregulates TP in tumour2 1Miwa M et al. Eur J Cancer 1998;34:1274–81 2Sawada N et al. Clin Cancer Res 1999;5:2948–53

  32. Capecitabine chemoradiation: • Oral capecitabine is replacing 5-FU in chemoradiation • capecitabine is highly effective and well tolerated in combination with radiotherapy • capecitabine simplifies chemoradiation and is highly appealing to patients and clinicians alike
