Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Histopathologically confirmed rectal adenocarcinoma with no prior antitumor therapy.
  • Exclusion of patients with BRAF mutations or MSI-H status, as determined by pre-enrollment genetic testing including RAS, BRAF, and MSI analysis. RAS mutation status is permitted regardless.
  • Absence of severe intestinal obstruction symptoms and no evidence of distant metastasis confirmed by imaging examinations such as CT, MRI, or PET/CT.
  • Confirmation as locally advanced rectal cancer by rectal MRI, meeting one or more of the following criteria: T3c-d or T4, N2, EMVI(+), MRF(+), lateral lymph node metastasis; or patients with low-lying rectal cancer (≤5 cm from the anal verge) unsuitable for sphincter-preserving surgery prior to neoadjuvant therapy.
  • Age 18 to 75 years.
  • ECOG Performance Status of 0 to 1, without severe comorbid medical conditions.
  • Adequate organ function:
  • Hematopoietic: Hemoglobin ≥90 g/L, Platelets ≥80 × 10\^9/L, Absolute Neutrophil Count ≥1.5 × 10\^9/L.
  • Hepatic: ALT and AST \< 2.5 × ULN. Renal: Serum Creatinine \< 1.5 × ULN.
  • Provision of signed and dated written informed consent.

Exclusion

  • Patients found to have BRAF mutations or MSI-H status.
  • Patients who have previously received chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, or surgical resection for colorectal cancer prior to enrollment.
  • History or presence of another malignancy (except for early-stage basal cell carcinoma or carcinoma in situ of the cervix) within the past 3 years, with the disease not under control.
  • Patients who are pregnant (confirmed by serum or urine β-HCG test) or breastfeeding.
  • Patients with severe cardiac, hepatic, renal, neurological, or psychiatric diseases.
  • Patients with active infections.
  • Poor overall health status, with an ECOG performance status ≥2.
  • Patients who have undergone organ transplantation requiring immunosuppressive therapy, or those requiring long-term corticosteroid treatment for autoimmune diseases.
  • Patients with comorbid conditions that, in the investigator's judgment, seriously endanger the patient's safety or affect the completion of the study.
  • Known hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs.
