e15102 Background:FBI-1 is a recently characterized proto-oncoprotein of the POZ domain Krüppel-like (POK) family of transcription factors. Although several studies provide the evidence that FBI-1 is an important gene regulator in CRC, no analysis of any correlation between FBI-1 expression and preoperative radiotherapy (RT) has been studied in rectal cancers. Methods: This study included the patients with rectal cancer that participated in a Swedish clinical trial of preoperative RT between 1987 and 1990. Patients were divided into preoperative RT (62) and non-RT (77) groups. Applying immunohistochemstry, we detected FBI-1 expression in 118 normal mucosa, 139 primary rectal cancers, and 45 lymph node metastases, and analyzed its relationship with clinicopathological features and RT response. Results: FBI-1 was detected both in the cytoplasm and nucleus, and the cytoplasmic staining was up-regulated compared with normal mucosa both in non-RT and RT groups (74.0% vs. 17.7%, p < 0.001; 69.4% vs. 41.1%, p = 0.002), however, the nuclear staining was down-regulated compared with normal mucosa both in non-RT and RT groups (22.1% vs. 75.8%, p < 0.001; 35.5% vs. 83.9% p < 0.001). Both cytoplasmic and nuclear staining were no difference between the non-RT and RT groups (74.0% vs. 69.4%, p = 0.542; 22.1% vs. 35.5%, p = 0.080, respectively). So we combined the non-RT and RT group together for further analysis. Nuclear staining of FBI-1 was positively with TNM stage and distance recurrence, it showed higher expression in III+ IV stage than that in I+II stage (41.0% vs. 17.9%, p = 0.003). The patients with distance recurrence showed higher FBI-1 expression than that with no distance recurrence (39.7% vs. 19.8%, p = 0.010). In stage I, II and III patients, higher nuclear FBI-1 in primary cancer showed worse disease free survival (HR: 1.934; 95%CI: 1.055-3.579, p = 0.033) and overall survival (HR: 2.174; 95%CI: 1.102-4.290; p = 0.025) independent of gender, age, growth pattern, differentiation and RT. Conclusions: Higher nuclear FBI-1 is related with later TNM stage, distance recurrence, and worse prognosis, it can be used as a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in rectal cancer.

Abstract Background Conformal sphincter preservation operation (CSPO) is a new surgical procedure for very low rectal cancers (within 4–5 cm from the anal verge). CSPO preserves more of the dentate line and distal rectal wall and also avoids injuring nerves in the intersphincteric space, resulting in satisfactory anal function after resection. The aim of this study was to analyze the short-term surgical results and long-term oncological and functional outcomes of CSPO. Methods Consecutive patients with very low rectal cancer, who had CSPO between January 2011 and October 2018 at Changhai Hospital, Shanghai were included. Patient demographics, clinicopathological features, oncological outcomes and anal function were analyzed. Results A total of 102 patients (67 men) with a mean age of 56.9 ± 10.8 years were included. The median distance of the tumor from the anal verge was 3 (IQR, 3–4) cm. Thirty-five patients received neoadjuvant chemoradiation (nCRT). The median distal resection margin (DRM) was 0.5 (IQR, 0.3–0.8) cm. One patient had a positive DRM. All circumferential margins were negative. There was no perioperative mortality. The postoperative complication rate was 19.6%. The median duration of follow-up was 28 (IQR, 12–45.5) months. The local recurrence rate was 2% and distant metastasis rate was 10.8%. The 3-year overall survival and disease-free survival rates were 100% and 83.9%, respectively. The mean Wexner incontinence and low anterior resection syndrome scores 12 months after ileostomy reversal were 5.9 ± 4.3, and 29.2 ± 6.9, respectively. Conclusions For patients with very low rectal cancers, fecal continence can be preserved with CSPO without compromising oncological results.

5-year results of combined treatment of 160 patients with respectable rectal cancer (TNM: IIab - IIIa-b) are analyzed. In 40 patients (study group)) neoadjuvant (72 h before surgery), endovascular oil Chemoembolization of the Rectal Arteries (RACHEL procedure) with a Lipiodol and 5-Fluorouraci was used. The results were compared with surgical treatment (control group 1, n=40) and preoperative radiotherapy methods (control group 2: 5 х 5 Gr, up to a Total Focal Dose of 25 Grandcontrolgroup3: High Dose radiotherapy with a Single Focal Dose of 13 Gr with program Endovascular Radio modification Metronidazole, for 40 patients). The preoperative RACHEL procedure in treatment of patients with resectable rectal cancer was effective with low local recurrence (2,6%) rate, at 5-year overall (89,7%) and disease -free survival (84,6%) and can compete with known preoperative radiotherapy in combined treatment of rectal cancer.

439 Background: This study is a retrospective analysis to investigate the efficiency of short-course preoperative radiotherapy following standardized total mesorectal excision (TME) for locally advanced rectal cancer. Methods: Clinical data of locally advanced mid-low rectal cancer who received TME in Beijing Cancer Hospital from 2001 to 2005 were collected retrospectively. Survival analysis was performed between patients who had TME following short-course preoperative radiotherapy (biological equivalent dose: 36Gy) or TME alone at the corresponding period. Results: Two hundred and sixty-three patients were eligible for analysis including 101 patients who received TME plus preoperative radiotherapy (PRT group) and 162 patients with TME alone (TME group). The occurrence of TNM downstaging in PRT group was 49.5%, including five percent who had complete response. The local reccurence rate was 4% in PRT group and 8.4% in TME group, with statistically different (p=0.04). An significant improved 5-year overall survival and disease-free survival was obtained in PRT group comparing with TME group (77.2% vs. 69.8%, p=0.04; 76.2% vs. 67.3%, p=0.03). Conclusions: Improved local control and survival benefits could be achieved by short-course preoperative radiotherapy on the basis of standardized TME for locally advanced rectal cancer. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

4007 Background: PRODIGE 23 investigated the role of neoadjuvant mFOLFIRINOX before preoperative (preop) chemoradiation (CRT), with TME-surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) in resectable locally advanced rectal cancer. Methods: PRODIGE 23 is a phase III multicenter randomized clinical trial. Eligible pts had cT3 or cT4, M0 rectal adenocarcinomas <15 cm from the anal verge, age 18-75 years, and WHO PS ≤1. Randomization was stratified by center, T stage, N status, tumor location, and perirectal fat extramural extension. Primary endpoint was 3-yr disease-free survival (DFS). Main secondary endpoints were ypT0N0 rate, overall survival (OS) and metastasis-free survival (MFS). 460 pts were required to observe 136 events to show a gain in 3-year DFS from 75% to 85% (HR=0.56) with a 2-sided α=0.05 and 90% power. HR and 95% CI were estimated by a stratified Cox proportional hazard model. Arm A pts received preop CRT (50 Gy, 2 Gy/fraction [fr]; 25 fr + capecitabine), surgery, then adjuvant CT for 6 months (mos). Arm B pts received 6 cycles of mFOLFIRINOX (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m², leucovorin 400 mg/m², irinotecan 180 mg/m² D1, and 5-FU 2.4 g/m² over 46 h) every 14 days, followed by the same preop CRT, surgery and 3 mos of adjuvant CT. Adjuvant CT consisted of mFOLFOX6 or capecitabine, depending on the centre’s choice for all pts. Imaging work-up, operative and pathology reports were centrally reviewed. Results: (ITT) Between 6/2012 and 6/2017, 230 and 231 pts were randomly assigned in Arm A/B, respectively by 35 participating centers. Pts characteristics were well balanced. Neoadjuvant mFOLFIRINOX and CRT in both arms were well tolerated. Compliance to CRT and to adjuvant CT was not hampered by neoadjuvant CT. Surgical morbidity did not differ between the 2 arms. The ypT0N0 rate was 11.7 vs 27.5% in Arm A/B (p<0.001). Median follow-up was 46.5 mos. 136 DFS events was reported. 3-yr DFS was significantly increased in arm B (HR 0.69, 95% CI 0.49-0.97, p=0.034): 68.5% (CI: 61.9-74.2) vs 75.7% (CI: 69.4-80.8) in arm A/B. The subgroup analysis showed no evidence of heterogeneity of the effect size of treatment on DFS. 3-yr MFS was also significantly higher in arm B: 71.7 in arm A vs 78.8% (HR 0.64, CI 0.44-0.93, p<0.02) in arm B. 3-yr OS was 87.7 vs 90.8% (HR 0.65, CI 0.40-1.05, p=0.077) in arm A/B, with 54.2% of the pts with recurrence being alive. Conclusions: Neoadjuvant mFOLFIRINOX plus CRT is safe, and significantly increased ypCR rate, DFS and MFS. OS data are not mature. Clinical trial information: NCT01804790 .

Successful surgical salvage after transanal excision (TAE) of rectal cancers has historically been considered feasible, but results vary. We examine our experience in surgical salvage of locally recurrent rectal cancers after TAE. A retrospective review of patients undergoing salvage surgery for locally recurrent early-stage rectal cancer after TAE from March 1990 to March 2008 at our institution is presented here. Seventy-eight patients underwent TAE for tumor invades submucosa (T1) rectal cancer. Average age of patients was 68.3 years. Recurrence occurred in 17 patients (21.8%). Median number of months between the first operation and the recurrence was 41 months. Sixteen out of 17 patients recurred locally whereas one had only distant recurrence. Fourteen were eligible for surgical salvage. Ten patients underwent abdominoperineal resection, whereas four underwent repeat local excision. Eleven deaths were noted and the median survival after the first operation was 70.3 months. Disease-free survival after salvage surgery was 53 per cent (9/17), with a median follow-up of 68 months from the original surgery. Disease-specific mortality was 47 per cent (8/17), with a median survival of 72 months from the original surgery. Five-year survival in the recurrence group was 11/16 (69%). In conclusion, TAE for T1 rectal cancer carries a higher risk of recurrence. Of the local recurrences, 87.5 per cent underwent microscopic negative margins (R0) resection at the time of salvage and had a five-year survival of 69 per cent. Long-term surveillance is encouraged, as recurrence can be seen even after 10 years from initial treatment. TAE can be considered for T1 rectal tumor with reasonable outcomes.
