Organ Preservation With Tislelizumab and Total Neoadjuvant Therapy in Patients With Low Rectal Cancer: RELIEVE -01 Study

This is an open-label, multi-center, single-arm clinical study. All patients received concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CRT) followed by 4 cycles of tislelizumab combined with CAPOX, then underwent clinical response assessment. Patients who achieved CR (cCR+ pCR confirmed by local resection of ncCR) continue tislelizumab combined with CAPOX for another 4 cycles and tislelizumab for 9 cycles, then Watch and Wait. Patients who did not achieved CR underwent total mesorectal excision (TME).
