The patient (T4N0 or low-risk stage III) will be randomly assigned to either the control group (FOLFOX/CAPOX for 3 months) or the intervention group (FOLFOX/CAPOX for 6 months or FOLFOX/CAPOX for 3 months followed by FOLFIRI/CAPIRI for 3 months) to receive adjuvant therapy. Venous blood samples (8-16 mL) will be collected at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery for dynamic monitoring of plasma ctDNA.

RECRUITINGPatient's 2-year Progression-Free Survival
Two-year Progression-Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the proportion of patients who remain alive without evidence of disease progression or recurrence within 24 months from the date of surgery (or randomization, as specified in the protocol). Disease progression is determined according to radiologic, clinical, or pathological criteria.
Time frame: 2 years
ctDNA-clearance Rate
ctDNA clearance rate is defined as the proportion of patients with detectable circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) at baseline who achieve conversion to undetectable ctDNA at a predefined post-treatment time point, as assessed by the specified ctDNA assay.
Time frame: 6 months
