relationship between EQD2 and local control at 2 years, using bounded logistic regression. Finally, we adjusted local control rates for T stage mix, using data from Maas et al (Lancet Oncol 2010; 11: 835–44), and fitted dose- response separately for cT1-2 and cT3-4. Results We screened 745 papers, and identified 15 non- overlapping cohorts for inclusion (Table 1). EQD2 to the primary tumour varied from 40.7Gy to >160Gy, with higher dose levels typically delivered using endorectal brachytherapy or contact X-ray therapy. Nine papers reported on dedicated NOM cohorts, with local control at 2 years at 12%-72%. A significant (p<0.001) dose-response relationship was estimated from these reports (Figure 1), characterised by D 50 = 70.6Gy (95% CI 61.5-79.7Gy) and γ 50 = 1.09 (0.95-1.23). The dose-response appeared to taper off for >100Gy, with upper bound on local control at 72%. The published cohorts had substantial heterogeneity in cT stage distribution, but this alone did not explain the variation in local control (p<0.001). Correcting for stage mix, the EQD2 needed for 50% local control at 2 years differed by nearly 20Gy for cT1-2 versus T3-4 tumours; D 50 = 66Gy for cT1-2 and D 50 = 85Gy for T3-4.

Conclusion This exploratory analysis of the rectal cancer organ preservation literature indicates a dose-response relationship for NOM. Future trials are needed for validation. The difference in dose response for T1-2 versus T2-3 suggests a need for patient stratification in trial design.

Although fractionation schedules are harmonized, each institute uses its own plan evaluation criteria including its own OAR nomenclature. A quality improvement project was started to quantify the current variation and to formulate national consensus guidelines on plan evaluation. Material and Methods A Benchmark Case including target and OAR delineations conforming to ESTRO guidelines was sent to all 20 radiotherapy departments. The institutes were requested to submit 4 photon treatment plans based on their own
