22 Can Total Mesorectal Excision BeAvoided inT2 Rectal Cancer?

There is limited patient-reported outcome data focused exclusively on patients
with T2N0 disease. Among patients with T1N0 disease, one study compared the
quality of life of 17 patients who underwent local excision with 18 patients who
underwent laparoscopic TME without an ostomy [15]. Questions regarding chemotherapy or stoma-related side effects were discarded, along withthose related to
sexual dysfunction, reportedly because few patients were sexually active. With
these caveats, neither procedure showed a signicant difference compared to preoperative status at 12months in cancer-specic quality of life or colorectal-specic
quality of life measured by the European Organization for Research and Treatment
of Cancer (EORTC-QLQ-C30 and QLQ-CR38) [15]. Patients cite risk of needing
an ostomy as a major concern during rectal cancer therapy. Even among patients
with stage one disease, the contemporary rate of abdominoperineal resection is
21.5%, and an additional 12% undergo a Hartmann’s procedure [3].
When neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapies are added, the patient-reported outcomes generally favor local excision. A study of patients with cT2–3 tumors (some
with nodal involvement) who underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiation followed by
local excision had signicantly better global health status, emotional function,
social function, body image, low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) scores, and
fecal incontinence subscale scores compared to those who underwent TME [16].
Similarly, in a multicenter study of a heterogeneous group of patients (T2-T4,
N1-N2, some with neoadjuvant therapy) who underwent local excision had signicantly better mean constipation scores, less sensation of incomplete emptying,
fewer second bowel movements within 15minutes compared to those who had
TME. Interestingly, patients who had local excision alone had the best patientreported outcomes, followed by those who had a TME, then those who had a completion TME following local excision [17]. Elsewhere, a study comparing 35
patients (T1 n=25; T2 n=10) who underwent local excision with or without adjuvant chemotherapy compared to those who underwent TME (n= 32) found that
14.8% of patients who had local excision had LARS compared to 45.5% (p=0.043)
of those who underwent TME [18]. An analysis of the Transanal Endoscopic
Microsurgery after Radiochemotherapy for Rectal Cancer (CARTs) study demonstrated that 48–68months after local excision, 22% (7/32) of patients with cT1-3N0
rectal cancer had no LARS, 28% (9/32) had minor LARS, and 50% (16/32) had
major LARS [19]. Unfortunately, this study did not have LARS scores from before
treatment to assess change associated with local excision.
Short-term morbidity and patient-reported outcomes notwithstanding, durable
oncologic outcomes are why TME is the standard of care in patients with T2N0
disease [4]. In the Dutch TME trial, patients with Stage I disease (n=243, cT1–2N0)
randomized to TME alone had a 10-year local recurrence rate of just 3% [20].
Similarly, in the OCUM study, out of 197 patients with cT2N0 disease who went
straight to TME, the 5-year locoregional recurrence rate was 1.7% (95% CI, 0–3.7%)
and the 5-year disease free survival 75.9% (95% CI, 69.8–82.0%) (personal communication with Professor T Junginger). Conversely, a pooled analysis including
patients with a minimum of 3years of follow-up who underwent local excision
found a weighted average rate of local recurrence of 8.1% (n= 268/3050; 95%

260

condence interval [CI], 6.6–9.9%) among those with pT1 disease and 28.9% for
pT2 disease (n=136/545; 95% CI, 22.3–36.4%) [5]. For patients who undergo a
local excision with completion TME, the weighted local recurrence rate is 1.8%
(n=5/180; 95% CI, 1.2–6.5) for patients with pT1 disease and 4.1% (n=5/123;
95% CI, 1.7–9.4%) for those with pT2 disease [ 5]. Finally, for those who underwent adjuvant chemoradiation after TME the weighted local recurrence was 4.8%
for pT1 disease (n = 24/285; 95% CI 2.3–9.8%) and 14.7% for pT2 disease
(11.2%–19.0%) [5]. In short, excellent surgical technique and high-quality TME are
associated with exceptional oncological outcomes, and novel approaches in T2 disease seeking to increase the rates of organ preservation utilizing neoadjuvant therapy and local excision should be held to these standards.
A. Loria and F. J. Fleming
Improving Oncologic Outcomes Associated withLocal Excision
Recognizing that the oncologic benets of TME come with higher rates of shortterm morbidity, appreciable colostomy rates, and poorer patient-reported outcomes,
investigators sought to improve the oncologic outcomes associated with local excision. Drawn by the successes of chemoradiation inlocally advanced rectal cancer,
favorable retrospective data, and the high rates of pathologic complete response
following TME, the addition of neoadjuvant chemoradiation before local excision
was the logical progression of subsequent trials. Here we will compare and contrast
one post hoc analysis and randomized controlled trials comparing novel treatment
modalities (neoadjuvant chemoradiation [or total neoadjuvant therapy] followed by
local excision) to the current standard of care, TME.There are notable single-arm
studies reporting oncologic and patient-reported outcomes following CRT followed
by local excision or in case of poor response to TME, but these do not directly compare to TME [19, 21].
A post hoc analysis of patients with T2N0 disease from two separate trials was
recently published [22]. This study is informative as it contrasts two management
philosophies for early rectal cancer. This compared the survival and health-related
quality of life between 79 patients with cT2N0 who underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiation (NCRT) followed by local excision (from ACOSOG Z6041) to 79 with
pT2N0 who underwent upfront TME (from the Dutch TME trial) [22, 23]. The
5-year rate of local recurrence was 4.2% (CI, 1.4%–12.5%) in the NCRT-local excision group and 1.3% (CI, 0.2%–6.7%) in the TME group (hazard ratio, 5.42; 95%
CI, 0.59–49.64, p=0.14). Similarly, there was no difference between the groups in
5-year disease-free survival (88.2% vs. 88.3%), 5-year overall survival (90.3% vs.
88.4%), or 5-year relative survival (99.8% vs. 100%) [22]. One of the most notable
differences between the two therapeutic approaches was the marked difference in
sphincter preservation with a permanent ostomy rate of 51% in the subgroup from
the Dutch TME trial compared to a 4% ostomy rate from ACOSOG Z6041 [21].
Table 22.2 summarizes the randomized controlled trials comparing neoadjuvant
therapy followed by LE with the standard of care (TME) [11, 12, 24]. The randomized controlled trials differ in their inclusion criteria and neoadjuvant regimens but

are representative of novel treatment modalities for early rectal cancer. The rst
study with 5-year oncologic data was GRECCAR 2, which had oncological outcomes as secondary endpoints [24]. Here, adults with T2-T3 low rectal cancers
were all treated with long-course neoadjuvant chemoradiation. Those who responded
well to the neoadjuvant therapy (≤2cm residual tumor at a 6–8week post neoadjuvant MRI) were randomized to local excision or TME 8weeks after chemotherapy.
The 5-year local recurrence, metastasis, overall survival, and cancer-specic mortality were similar between the patients with NCRT+LE and the NCRT+TME
groups (Table22.2).
Neoadjuvant CRT is commonly used but is associated with substantial morbidity
and even mortality, as seen in the CARTS study [19]. An alternative investigated in
the TREC study is performing neoadjuvant short-course radiation (SCRT) followed
by local excision [12]. The TREC study did include non-randomized patients whose
treatment was determined by a multidisciplinary tumor board, but we will focus on
the randomized patients. In the comparison of 28 patients randomized to TME compared to SCRT followed by TEM, there was no difference in 3-year overall (93% vs.
88%, p=0.35) or 3-year disease-free survival (85% vs. 76%, p=0.12), respectively.
The most recent study (TAU-TEM) has published short-term outcomes, but no data
are available to date on oncologic outcomes [11].
The high rates of pathologic complete response following neoadjuvant chemoradiation and the mixed data regarding patient-reported outcomes following NCRT +
local excision have stimulated further investigation. Ongoing trials such as STARTREC (NCT02945566), GRECCAR12 (NCT02514278), OPERA (NCT02505750),
and ReSARCh (NCT02710812) among others are assessing whether local excision
can be avoided altogether with a watch and wait approach. Currently, there are minimal patient-reported outcomes data regarding the watch and wait strategy. The
available studies assess patients with locally advanced rectal cancer and report comparisons between watch and wait to TME.One study compared 21 patients who
underwent watch and wait to 21 who underwent sphincter preserving
TME.Expectedly, 21 patients who had watch and wait matched to 21 who had TME
had better bowel function on all of the subscales of the Memorial Sloan Kettering
Cancer Center Bowel Function Instrument [25]. These results are corroborated elsewhere in a study of patients with locally advanced rectal cancer who received watch
and wait compared to anterior resection [26]. A more appropriate comparison for
patients who undergo watch and wait is to patients who receive local excision.

Recommendations Based ontheData
For a patient with cT2N0 rectal cancer who can tolerate surgery, or a patient where
frequent surveillance for tumor recrudescence is impractical or impossible, a high
quality TME is recommended to minimize their risk of recurrence and maximize
their overall survival (Evidence: strong quality; Recommendation, strong).This is
clearly the preferred approach in patients with T2N0 disease from the oncological
standpoint.

https://t.me/medicina_free
In highly select patients with cT2N0 rectal cancer with prohibitively high-risk
comorbidities or refuse TME, local excision can be considered (Evidence, moderate; Recommendation, weak). These high-risk patients should be carefully
surveilled for potential completion TME salvage in the event of recrudescence.(Evidence, high quality; Recommendation, weak).
263
A Personal View oftheData
T2N0 Rectal Cancer: TheGoldilocks Effect
Given the tremendous progress in reducing locoregional recurrence rates, we contend that the pressing issues in T2N0 rectal cancer management are now the risk of
distant recurrence, minimizing acute and chronic treatment-related toxicities, and
organ preservation. For patients with a T2N0 tumor, TME, often necessitating an
abdominoperineal resection, may be ‘too much’ treatment. Conversely, local excision alone is clearly ‘too little’ treatment given the very high rates of locoregional
recurrence. So, what is the ‘just right’ amount of therapy to reduce the locoregional
risk of recurrence while minimizing toxicity and maximizing organ preservation?
Contemporary rectal cancer care is multidisciplinary and based on shared- decision
making. Many patients, even those with a complete clinical response to neoadjuvant
therapy, seek the most denitive treatment to “put the disease behind them.” For
them, a TME even with ypT0N0 is the appropriate treatment. However, it is possible
to achieve durable oncologic outcomes and organ preservation using either NCRT-LE
or TNT-WW [22, 27, 28]. Consider a 75-year-old male who lives independently with
a 2cm lesion 5cm from the anal verge under local excision and pathology revealed
a T2 tumor with clear margins positive for lymphovascular invasion tumor. The
patient is interested in curative treatment but is concerned about complications leading to a loss of independence. In this case scenario without additional therapy, one in
four patients (20–25%) will have a locoregional recurrence and 6–13% will have
distant metastasis [5]. Adding adjuvant chemoradiation would offer approximately a
50% relative risk reduction inlocoregional recurrence (10–12.5%) and distant recurrence (5–10%) [5]. A completion TME reduces the risk of locoregional recurrence to
4–5% and distant recurrence to 5–7% [5]. With proper counseling, we have employed
each of these treatment approaches to good effect.
Another scenario is a 60-year-old female with a T2N0 tumor abutting the anal
sphincter complex, who is keen to avoid a permanent colostomy, and has declined
an upfront abdominoperineal resection. There is a reasonable body of data supporting the deployment of neoadjuvant therapy, possibly followed by local excision
(NCRT-LE) ideally via a transanal endoscopic platform. This approach is associated
with 60–80% organ preservation rates among patients who met post-treatment
response criteria in clinical trials [11, 12, 24]. However, up to 10% of the patients in
these studies required completion TME.The challenge of accurately identifying
complete clinical responders to neoadjuvant therapy is a drawback of TNT-WW
[29]. While NCRT-LE provides some reassurance that residual microscopic disease

264
https://t.me/medicina_free

was removed, the relatively high rates of pathologic complete response in the trials
(26–40%) and functional derangements (50% major LARS at 5years in the CARTS
study) highlight the urgent need to improve endoscopic, radiographic, and/or bloodbased (ex. circulating cell-free DNA) methods of identifying complete clinical
responders [19, 29]. There are very few patient-reported outcomes data comparing
patients who had NCRT-LE and TNT-WW, and this area needs investigation.
Presently, TNT-WW should be reserved for institutional review board approved
protocols and is not the standard of care [30].
In conclusion, the management of early rectal cancer is rapidly advancing, and
TME is an excellent option for most patients with T2N0 rectal cancer. Even patients
with early disease who could be managed with TME alone should be presented in a
tumor board setting adhering to evidence-based standards such as the National
Accreditation Program for Rectal Cancer (NAPRC) standards [31]. However, clinicians should prepare for the growing trend toward organ preservation, particularly
in light of the increasing adoption of TNT throughout the United States [32].
Surgeons should be at the forefront of investigations into pressing clinical questions
regarding patient-reported outcomes, oncologic durability, and logistical or quality
issues associated with the widespread implementation of organ preservation programs. Regardless, patients with T2N0 disease must be thoroughly counseled on the
diagnostic uncertainty in early rectal cancer and all contemporary management
options. If these patients remain highly committed to organ preservation, even
potentially at the expense of oncologic outcomes, referral to experienced centers is
recommended.

Surgical Treatment inRectal Cancer

Introduction
The standard of care for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) includes neoadjuvant long-course chemoradiotherapy (LCRT), total mesorectal excision (TME) and
postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy [1]. However, over the past 2 decades, the
treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) has evolved in an attempt to
balance between better survival outcomes and reducing long-term sequelae on the
patient’s quality of life (QoL) due to the toxicities associated with neoadjuvant
treatment (NAT) [2].
Up to 20% of LARC patients treated with LCRT alone may develop a pathological complete response (i.e. absence of residual tumor cells at either the primary
tumor site and the mesorectal nodes, pCR), but this can be as high as 40% in those
treated with concomitant consolidative chemotherapy given after LCRT [3]. Patients
with a pCR have improved survival rates, with lower than 5% of distant metastasis
and 1% of locoregional failure [4].
