Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study evaluate the addition of Irinotecan in neoadjuvant chemoradiation. Half of participants will receive capecitabine alone together with neoadjuvant CRT, followed by a cycle of XELOX, while the other will receive capecitabine and irinotecan during CRT, followed by a cycle of XELIRI. All participants will be scheduled to receive surgery 6-8 weeks after the completion of CRT, then 5 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy of XELOX.
