Nina Niu Sanford: Nice editorial urging caution in patients with near CR after total neoadjuvant therapy in rectal cancer
Nina Niu Sanford, Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology at UT Southwestern Medical Center, shared a post on X:
“Nice editorial in JAMA Oncology today urging caution in pts w near CR after total neoadjuvant therapy in rectal cancer.
Reported rates of conversion from nCR to cCR vary widely from 39% to 100%!
Completely agree these patients should be counseled re: uncertainty of pursuing organ preservation, closely followed, & eventually better stratification needed for this biologically heterogeneous subgroup.”
