To determine the optimal dose and frequency of enadenotucirev that can be administered with chemoradiation for rectal cancer.
Primary Endpoints
Dose limiting toxicity
MRI tumour regression grade
Secondary Endpoints
Ability to deliver enadenotucirev concurrently with chemoradiation
Assessment of treatment tolerance as measured by the proportion of patients completing at least 80% of the intended Capecitabine dose and at least 20 fractions of radiotherapy by the end of week 9
To measure local response rate to combined therapy compared to pre-treatment status
Pathological complete response rate
Neoadjuvant rectal (NAR) score [35]
Exploratory Endpoints
To identify ‘proof of concept’ that enadenotucirev replicates in the tumour during chemoradiotherapy
IHC staining of hexon protein coat in tumour cells from ‘on-treat’ biopsy performed on week 2 of radiotherapy
