Purpose: To determine Dose limiting Toxicity (DLT) for CPT-11 added to HART in Locally

Advanced Rectal Cancer (LARC). HART has been shown feasible and effective on local control in previous Trial 93-01 (actuarial local control rate of 91% - selection criteria:T3-T4 any N or T1-T2 N+). The pattern of failure in Trial 93-01 is dominated by distant

metastatic disease. CPT-11 is an effective drug in colorectal tumors and a potential radiation sensitizer.

Patients and methods: Neo-adjuvant CPT-11 is applied on days 1, 8 and 15, with HART

starting on day 8 (HART = 41.6 Gy in b.i.d. 1.6Gy with 6 hours interval). Surgery has to be performed preferentially within 6 days after the end of HART. Postoperatively, four cycles of CPT-11 (250-350mg/m2) are planned.Twenty patients are included in this dose

escalation study (starting dose level 30 mg/m2 with increments of 15 mg/m2). Six dose levels have been explored. The Common Toxicity Scoring System has been used.

Results: The DLT has been reached at the level of 105 mg/m2 of CPT-11, with at this dose

level two anastomotic leaks and one perineal abscess. Major surgical complications occurred in 4/20 patients (3 anastomotic leaks and 3 abscesses). Pathological downstaging has been seen in 9 patients

Conclusion: The recommended dose for CPT-11 in a preoperative setting combined to
