3 Relevant Endpoints in rectal cancer Local recurrence Disease-free survival Overall survival Sphincter sparing Late effects (function/infertility/2 nd malignancies)

4

5 Tailored Treatment according to Risk (low/inter/high) for Local Recurrence The Good Surgery alone The Bad (Nodes/EMVI etc) 5x5 Gy / long course CRT The Ugly (Involved margin clinically or at imaging) long course CRT

6 Risk of local recurrence for rectal tumours as predicted by MRI Characteristics of rectal tumours predicted by MRI High Moderate a threatened (<1 mm) or breached resection margin or low tumours encroaching onto the inter-sphincteric plane or with levator involvement any ct3b or greater, in which the potential surgical margin is not threatened or any suspicious lymph node not threatening the surgical resection margin or the presence of extramural vascular invasion

7 Questions How many with SCPRT and immediate surgery?

8 Do you treat? Low risk Dukes B colon cancer patients with adjuvant chemo? High Risk Dukes C colon cancer with adjuvant chemo? What is an acceptable local recurrence rate?

9 Questions What is an acceptable local recurrence rate?

10 Bearing in mind toxicity What is an acceptable local recurrence rate at 5 years for resectable cancers? 0-4.9% 5-9.9% % 15% +

11 In decisions re SCPRT/CRT So does the risk of local recurrence trump everything else?

12 So? What is an acceptable local recurrence rate? What is an acceptable metastases rate?

13 Evidence for low rectal cancer All subset analysis 50% of patients ineortc and FFCD 9203 within 5cm 33% of patients in CR07 within 5cm

14 Risk factors for adverse outcome with APER (den Dulk 2007) Age T stage N stage CRM Distance from anal margin Tumour location (women with anterior tumours do worst)

15 Rectal cancer LOW RISK INTERMEDIATE RISK (BAD) HIGH RISK Low risk local recurrence/ Low risk metastases GOOD Clinical factors Low risk local recurrence/ moderate risk metastases Define by MRI Moderate risk of local recurrence / high risk metastases High risk of local recurrence / higher risk metastases Obesity Male /with anterior tumours Narrow pelvis Previous pelvic surgery Large bulky tumour/circumferential tumour High risk local recurrence/ High risk metastases UGLY

16 Rectal cancer requiring Anterior Resection Low risk local recurrence/ moderate risk metastases MRI ct3b >4mm extension into muscularis propria CRM not threatened (predicted >2mm) cn1, CT M0 INTERMEDIATE RISK Moderate risk of local recurrence/ high risk metastases MRI ct3b >4mm ct3c, cn2, V2 CRM not threatened (predicted >2mm) CT M0 High risk of local recurrence/ high risk metastases MRI ct3d, T4a (resectable) V2 CRM not threatened (predicted >2mm) CT M0 Obesity Male /with anterior tumours Narrow pelvis Previous pelvic surgery Large bulky tumour/circumferential tumour

17 The problem TNM doesnt work for low rectal cancer (size) T2/T4 It is more difficult to predict levator involvement MRI is more critical 15% LPLN for low tumours

18 Chemoradiation Short course

19 What can SCPRT CRT Do for us here?

20 SCPRT Reduces local recurrence Quick enables you get on with systemic therapy Does compensate a bit for + crm (Cheap) Late effects 2 nd malignancies

21 SCPRT reduces local recurrence Stockholm II Swedish Rectal Cancer Trial Dutch TME trial CR07

22 Polish study Bujko et al chemoradiation Rate of Local Recurrence (%) ,00 P= x 5 Gy Actuarial 4-year was 11% SCPRT- and 16% in the CTRT group, p=0.29, DFS and OS the same Years

23 TROG results ASCO 2010 T3NxMo within 12 cm 50.4Gy + 225mg/m2 5FU vs 25Gy/5/5 326 patients (163 in each arm) Local rec 7.5% (SC) vs 4.4% (CRT) p=0.24 Distant DFS 72% vs 69% p=0.85 OS 74% vs 70% p=0.56 Late G3/G4 7.6% vs 8.8% p=0.84 Tox Ngan S et al., ASCO 2010

24 Percentage patients with CRM +ve by year CR Change in margin rate over time - 11% overall Percentage Year

25 CR07 Development impact Programme of SCPRT

26 CR07 CRM LR when CRM not involved SCPRT Post-op Selective (No RT) 3.3% 8.9%

27 CR-07 Quality of surgery-3 year LR rates Quality of Surgery Muscular propr plane Intramesorectal plane Mesorectal plane SCPRT Selective postop CRT 10% 16%? 4% 10%? 1.3% 7% N/A Patients with MRI excluded

28 CR-07 Distance from anal verge 3 year LR rates Distance SCPRT Selective postop CRT > % 6.2%? Patients with MRI excluded >5-10 5% 10%? 0-5cm 5% 10%?

29

30 Chemoradiation using Gy CRT ( Gy) is not a curative dose (except in 10-15% of cases) 45-50Gy is a microscopic dose deals with at most 30% of microscopically involved nodes 15-20% of macroscopically involved nodes

31 CRT Reduces local recurrence Time consuming -20 weeks to surgery you dont get on with systemic therapy Does compensate a bit for + crm (more expensive) Late effects? The same 2 nd malignancies??? The same

52 This data Suggests that in the trials 50-60% were actually cn0 EORTC versus 7 nodes Polish -9 versus 8 Compliance to postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy approx 50%

53 In decisions re SCPRT/CRT So does the risk of local recurrence trump everything else?

54 In LARC Local recurrence has No impact on survival pcr, ypt0 or local control do not represent a clinical benefit on their own they should not be the final endpoint of phase III clinical trials should be regarded as biomarkers.

55 Overall Survival Braendengen M et al., JCO 2008

56 Evidence Base Meta-analysis Bujko 2006 No evidence preop RT/CTRT achieves sphincter sparing surgery Cochrane Review Wong 2007 No evidence preop RT/CTRT achieves sphincter sparing surgery

57 Decisions re AR vs APER Not just cm between tumour and sphincter Other clinical factors So Selection of favourable tumours for AR with short margins Unfavourable tumours for APER with long margins

58 Sphincter sparing Surgery Sauer 2004 NEJM NB Zelen randomisation

59 Morbidity Sphincter and bowel function Urinary incontinence Sexual problems men and women Insufficiency fractures 100% infertility

60 2nd Malignancies SCPRT doubles the risk of 2 nd malignancies 5-10 years after SCPRT 9.5% versus 4.3% (Birgisson 2005) Seer Data more reassuring but non randomised. only a statistically significant increase risk of second cancers in the lung, bladder, uterus and cervix (Kendal 2007).

61 DUTCH TME study SCPRT increases deaths from second malignancy (13.7% versus 9.4%) at 11 years. So... think of the age of the patient?

62 What do we need to know? Where is the tumour? APER or Ant resection? MRI predicted CRM? Can you produce a specimen in a mesorectal plane?

63 Conclusions 1. 5FU-based CRT more effective (downsizing) than RT but no improvement in OS 2. SCPRT = CRT in resectable mid rectal cancer 3. Radiotherapy (SCPRT or CRT) is a locoregional treatment without effect on systemic disease 4. We need to consider surgical morbidity, late effects and 2 nd cancers in our decisions 5. Do we need to rethink need for CRT for upper rectal cancer and patients for APER? 6. We need better systemic treatments

73 Dutch TME at 6 years ANNals of Surgery

74 Surgical Approaches: APR versus AR Abdominoperineal resection (APR) Used for tumors of the lower 3 rd of the rectum Necessary when marginnegative tumor resection will result in loss of anal sphincter function En bloc removal of the rectosigmoidcolon, rectum, & anus + surrounding mesentery, mesorectum, and perianal soft tissue Colostomy required Anterior Resection of the Rectum (AR) Used for tumors of the proximal 2/3 of the rectum Preserves the lower portion of the rectum & the anus Allows for normal anal sphincter function Associated lymph nodes are removed Temporary colostomy may be necessary if adjuvant chemotherapy given

75 What the MDT needs to know Extent of tumour (site and length) Depth of extramural spread T3a,T3b,T3c etc.. EMVI (V2) Proximity to mesorectal fascia and levators (of the primary or mesorectal deposits) Gross Lymph node involvement (within and outside mesorectum) Distant metastases Distance from anal sphincter/height of tumour
