Summary

Locally advanced rectal cancer (T3, T4 or lymph node positive tumors) are conventionally treated with 5FU / capecitabine based chemoradiation prior to surgical resection. This treatment is associated with only a 15-20% pathological complete response. Selinexor (KPT-330) is a Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export (SINE) XPO1 antagonist that has demonstrated radiosensitization with in vivo models and has suggested single agent activity against colorectal cancers in a Phase I trial. Here we perform a Phase I/Ib trial of standard chemoradiation combined with Selinexor.

We hypothesize that tumors treated with this new combination will demonstrate an increased response rate compared to those treated with capecitabine-radiation alone.

Conditions

  • Rectal Neoplasms

Interventions

RADIATION

standard dose pelvic radiation therapy

radiation therapy to pelvis delivered using standard conformal or IMRT techniques. 50.4-55 Gy

DRUG

standard dose capecitabine

825 mg/m2 twice daily, 5 days a week (max dose 2000mg twice daily), only on days when radiation is delivered

DRUG

dose-escalated selinexor treatment

Selinexor oral drug will be given twice weekly according to the dose escalation schedule described in the protocol. Selinexor will be started on the day radiation begins, until the end of week 6.
