Abstract
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy has been a mainstay of the treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer. Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) blockade therapy has demonstrated efficacy in combination with radiation. In this issue, Xiao et al. demonstrate promising efficacy with the addition of PD-1 blockade to neoadjuvant therapy for mismatch-repair proficient rectal cancer.
期刊介绍：
Cancer Cell is a journal that focuses on promoting major advances in cancer research and oncology. The primary criteria for considering manuscripts are as follows:
Major advances: Manuscripts should provide significant advancements in answering important questions related to naturally occurring cancers.
Translational research: The journal welcomes translational research, which involves the application of basic scientific findings to human health and clinical practice.
Clinical investigations: Cancer Cell is interested in publishing clinical investigations that contribute to establishing new paradigms in the treatment, diagnosis, or prevention of cancers.
Insights into cancer biology: The journal values clinical investigations that provide important insights into cancer biology beyond what has been revealed by preclinical studies.
Mechanism-based proof-of-principle studies: Cancer Cell encourages the publication of mechanism-based proof-of-principle clinical studies, which demonstrate the feasibility of a specific therapeutic approach or diagnostic test.
