Inclusion Criteria for Cohort 1 In addition to the general inclusion criteria:(1)Tumor \< 5 cm (T1-2) and negative regional lymph nodes (N-) on physical examination or contrast-enhanced pelvic MRI;(2) No prior anti-tumor therapy.
Inclusion Criteria for Cohort 2 In addition to the general inclusion criteria:(1) No residual tumor detectable on physical examination or imaging after local excision;(2) No prior anti-tumor therapy including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy.
Inclusion Criteria for Cohort 3 In addition to the general inclusion criteria:(1) Tumor ≥ 5 cm (T3), or invasion of adjacent organs (T4), or regional lymph node positivity (N+) in mesorectal, presacral, internal/external iliac, or inguinal lymph node regions on physical examination or contrast-enhanced pelvic MRI;(2) No prior anti-tumor therapy.
Inclusion Criteria for Cohort 4 In addition to the general inclusion criteria:(1) Initial distant metastasis (M1) (liver, lung, bone, distant lymph nodes, etc.) confirmed by chest/abdominal CT or PET-CT,or pelvic recurrence after prior treatment, with or without distant metastasis.
