RAPIDO vs LCRT vs Upfront Surgery - a Prospective Cohort Study
Novel Objective Comparison of Short-term Surgical Outcomes From Total Mesorectal Excision Between Total Neoadjuvant Therapy - Rapido Protocol, Standard Long Course Radiotherapy and Upfront Surgery
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 Apr 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Aim: We evaluated the surgical outcomes of 3 groups of patients with rectal cancers - RAPIDO vs standard long course radiotherapy (LCRT) vs upfront surgery to objectively determine the effects of TNT on TME. Methods: A review of prospectively collected data was performed for patients who have rectal cancer and underwent low anterior resection from January 2016 to May 2022. Data on patient demographics, disease staging, peri-operative details and up to 2-year follow-up outcomes were analysed. The surgical and oncological outcomes were compared. Patients were followed up until 31 May 2022.
