This prospective, randomized phase II trial is designed to evaluate whether low-dose short-course radiotherapy differs from common-dose short-course radiotherapy in terms of efficacy when both regimens are sequentially combined with CAPOX, a PD-1 monoclonal antibody, and interleukin-2 (IL-2) in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer. The study is based on findings from our previous single-center, single-arm PRIDE01 study, in which neoadjuvant short-course radiotherapy followed by systemic chemoimmunotherapy and IL-2 demonstrated encouraging antitumor activity relative to historical short-course radiotherapy-based approaches. The current trial aims to provide more robust clinical evidence regarding the potential role of low-dose radiotherapy combined with IL-2 as a sensitization strategy in multimodal neoadjuvant therapy. By comparing complete response rates between the two radiotherapy dose levels, this study may help define an optimized neoadjuvant approach and support future organ-preservation strategies for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer.
Eligibility: 18 Years to 70 Years · All · 1. Male and female patients aged 18 to 70 years.
2. Histologically confirmed rectal adenocarcinoma with the distal margin of the tumor located within 12 cm of the anal verge.

The goal of this clinical trial is to clarify the efficacy and safety of transcutaneous electrical acustimulation (TEA) in elderly patients with colorectal cancer, and to evaluate its clinical value in promoting postoperative intestinal function recovery and reducing the incidence of intestinal complications. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Can TEA promote the recovery of intestinal function in elderly patients with colon cancer after surgery? What medical problems might occur to the participants when using TEA? The researchers will compare TEA with the control group (non-acupoint sham stimulation) to see if TEA is effective in promoting the recovery of intestinal function after surgery.
Participants will:
Starting from the first day after the surgery, they received TEA or sham stimulation twice a day for a total of 3 days.
Record the time of the first defecation, defecation, and eating. Record their symptoms and adverse events.

This phase II trial studies how well intra-tumor injection of double checkpoint inhibitors work when given alone and in combination with chemotherapy or/and bevacizumab in treating patients with previously untreated stage I-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, pembrolizumab or durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in interventional radiological chemotherapy, such as idabubicin, can directly kill the cancer cell and release tumor antigens to activate DC function in situ. Giving intra-tumor injection of checkpoints inhibitors with or without chemotherapy and/or bevecizumab may work better than in vein infusion of the drugs in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
Eligibility: 18 Years to 75 Years · All · 1. Histologically or cytologically confirmed previously untreated non-small cell lung cancer. If a diagnostic biopsy is available, a pre-treatment biopsy is not required.
