The purpose of this study is to compare 3 cycles of neoadjuvant (preoperative) chemotherapy +
operation with the standard treatment of locally advanced colon cancer, which is operation +
8 cycles of (adjuvant) chemotherapy.
Patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy may not need adjuvant chemotherapy after the
operation and, if this is the case, they will be spared of 5 cycles of chemotherapy.
