OBJECTIVE To document the efficacy of intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) followed by adjuvant chemoradiation in the management of locally advanced rectal cancer. METHODS A total of 148 patients with pT4N0/T1-4N+ rectal adenocarcinoma were enrolled. Seventy-seven patients received total mesorectal excision surgery followed by adjuvant chemoradiation alone, 71 patients received total mesorectal excision surgery followed by IORT (range, 10 to 20 Gy) and adjuvant chemoradiation. RESULTS The 5-year local control (LC) and disease-free survival were 79.2% versus 89.7% (P=0.032), 58.5% versus 69.0% (P=0.049) for external-beam radiation (EBRT) and IORT+EBRT groups, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that adjuvant IORT has a trend toward improvement of LC (P=0.079); 5 (3%) patients (EBRT n=2; IORT n=3) experienced incomplete intestinal obstruction and 3 patients had chronic diarrhea. There was no clinically relevant neuropathy or sacral osteoradionecrosis. Hydronephrosis occurred in 13 patients (EBRT n=8; IORT+EBRT n=5), 8 of whom had documented concomitant disease recurrence. CONCLUSIONS For patients with locally advanced rectal cancer, higher radiation dose may contribute to the improvement of both LC and disease-free survival, without significantly increasing the incidence of acute and long-term complications compared with adjuvant chemoradiotherapy alone.

D002945 Cisplatin An inorganic and water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts with DNA to produce both intra and interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity of cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in the G2 phase of the cell cycle.
