Study Summary

Rectal cancer patients who do not achieve a complete response to standard of care chemotherapy and radiation often require surgical resection as part of curative intent therapy. This study will evaluate whether additional "focal" radiation delivered internally (rectal brachytherapy) can provide complete responses and thus spare the requirement for surgery. The main questions are whether: 1) rectal brachytherapy is safe in this clinical treatment paradigm and if 2) rectal brachytherapy improves organ preservation (no need for surgery). The trial involves an additional MRI pelvis and sigmoidoscopy with marker placement to define high-risk residual disease for radiation planning. Subsequently, 3 outpatient brachytherapy treatments are given on a weekly basis. If a patient achieves a complete response to brachytherapy, standard of care non-operative surveillance visits are conducted with study visits aligned during the first two years following brachytherapy.
