- ACG 2025 - Ulcerative Colitis Guideline — society guideline (Am J Gastroenterol 2025): full
medical-management and ASUC algorithm for UC. Filed in
guidelines-trials/(see Guidelines & Trials) since it’s a guideline entity, not a single-paper source — listed here too since it functions as this ingest’s source document. - AGA 2024 - Moderate-to-Severe UC Pharmacotherapy Guideline — society living guideline
(Gastroenterology 2024): NMA-based efficacy positioning, combination therapy, de-escalation, step
therapy, pregnancy. Filed in
guidelines-trials/. - BSG 2025 - IBD Guidelines (Adults) — society guideline (Gut 2025), covers both UC and Crohn’s
plus cross-cutting IBD topics. First primary-guideline source for Crohn’s medical/surgical
management. Filed in
guidelines-trials/. - Bahadoer 2021 - RAPIDO Trial — RAPIDO phase 3 RCT: SCRT+chemo (TNT) vs. standard CRT in high-risk LARC. Reduced distant metastases, no OS benefit, numerically worse locoregional control at 3 years — confirmed statistically significant at 5.6 years, see Dijkstra 2023 - RAPIDO 5-Year Locoregional Failure.
- Conroy 2024 - PRODIGE 23 Long-Term Results — PRODIGE 23 7-year follow-up: chemotherapy-first TNT vs. standard CRT. First rectal-cancer TNT trial with a mature OS benefit, no locoregional trade-off.
- Jin 2022 - STELLAR Trial — STELLAR phase 3 RCT: SCRT-based TNT vs. standard CRT. Noninferior DFS, no locoregional trade-off (unlike RAPIDO), roughly double the acute toxicity.
- Schrag 2023 - PROSPECT Trial — PROSPECT phase 2/3 RCT: FOLFOX with selective CRT vs. routine CRT in lower-risk, sphincter-sparing-eligible LARC — a radiation-omission trial, distinct from TNT.
- Caplin 2014 - CLARINET Trial — CLARINET phase 3 RCT: lanreotide vs. placebo in nonfunctioning enteropancreatic NETs. Significantly prolonged PFS.

- Strosberg 2017 - NETTER-1 Trial — NETTER-1 phase 3 RCT: 177Lu-Dotatate (PRRT) vs. high-dose octreotide in SSA-progressive midgut NETs. 79% lower risk of progression/death.
- Yao 2016 - RADIANT-4 Trial — RADIANT-4 phase 3 RCT: everolimus vs. placebo in advanced non-functional lung/GI NETs. Median PFS 11.0 vs. 3.9 months.
- Ciseł 2019 - POLISH II Long-Term Results — POLISH II long-term follow-up: short-course RT + consolidation chemo vs. long-course chemoradiation in cT4/fixed-cT3 rectal cancer. Neutral trial — no efficacy difference in either direction.
- Dijkstra 2023 - RAPIDO 5-Year Locoregional Failure — RAPIDO 5.6-year follow-up. Confirms a statistically significant increase in locoregional recurrence with TNT, resolving this wiki’s previously-unresolved cross-trial disagreement.
- Quénet 2021 - PRODIGE 7 Trial — PRODIGE 7 phase 3 RCT: CRS+HIPEC vs. CRS alone for colorectal peritoneal metastases. No OS/RFS benefit from HIPEC; more morbidity.
- Brouquet 2020 - GRECCAR16 Trial Protocol — NORAD01-GRECCAR16 protocol (no results yet): FOLFIRINOX replacing radiotherapy vs. standard CRT in CRM-negative resectable LARC.
- Alvarez 2024 - JANUS Trial Protocol — Janus trial protocol (no results yet, accruing): triplet vs. doublet consolidation chemotherapy for clinical complete response/organ preservation.
