The cornerstone in the treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) is neoadjuvant
chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) followed by total mesorectal excision. Reliable predictors of
response to nCRT in LARC remain an unmet need in colorectal cancer research. This study
used high throughput DNA analysis to investigate genetic differences between highly
responsive tumors and tumors resistant to nCRT.European Human Genetics Conference Hybrid Conference Glasgow, Scotland, UK JUNE 10–13, 202
