Anti-PCSK9 Antibody Tafolecimab and Anti-PD-1 Antibody Sintilimab Combined With Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy for pMMR/ MSS Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer : A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label, Parallel-Controlled Trial
Summary
This is a randomized, controlled clinical trial based on prior exploratory findings, designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy combined with tafolecimab(an anti-PCSK9 inhibitor) and sintilimab (an anti-PD-1 inhibitor) versus neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy combined with sintilimab alone in patients with pMMR/MSS locally advanced rectal cancer. The primary endpoint is the complete response (CR) rate, including the pathological complete response (pCR) rate in patients who undergo surgery after neoadjuvant therapy, and the clinical complete response (cCR) rate in patients managed with a watch-and-wait strategy. Secondary endpoints include major pathological response (MPR) rate, objective response rate (ORR), downstaging rate, R0 resection rate, tumor regression grade, sphincter preservation rate, disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), and safety.
