Acute skin toxicity was less were similar between groups Age≤65 years (p<0.010), cT1 – 2 stage (p=0.004), and bIRT improved OS. of mortality. DMFS was better in the bIRT group (p=0.015) with a low rate of stoma formation for LC (p=0.042); reduced CRLR (p=0.004) and increased OS (p=0.012). significantly associated with OS. N stage was the only significant Higher LC was associated with: (i) lymph node involvement (p=0.03), (ii)
Main results common in the IRT boost group, but long-term morbidity and QoL (p=0.015) were associated with Tumor stage cT3 – 4 (p=0.004) and age>65 years (p=0.001) were associated with an increased risk EBRT-CHT+bIRT was associated In N1, bIRT was a prognostic factor OTT ≤78 days was associated with N stage and OTT (≤78 days) were prognostic factor for CFS (p=0.0001)
