Summary
The objective of Timing and Deferral of Rectal Surgery Following a Continued Response to
Pre-operative CRT study is to establish the time to maximum tumour response following CRT,
and to investigate whether surgery can be safely avoided within the tight framework of the
trial follow-up protocol in a small group of patients where the cancer becomes undetectable
by imaging modalities.
