For an R1 resection, considerations would include re-resection if feasible or chemoradiation. I would not favor chemotherapy unless there was evidence of a really convincing response from FLOT. I assume MSI testing was done.

Chemoradiation for local control after more FLOT, unless the response was considered poor or tolerance is an issue.
