of reovirus within liver metastases after intravenous administration of REOLYSIN(R) by examination of the resected tumour. Secondary objectives include assessing the anti-tumour activity and safety profile of REOLYSIN(R), and monitoring the humoral and cellular immune response to REOLYSIN(R).

Eligible patients include those with histologically proven colorectal cancer, planned for potentially curative surgical resection of liver metastases. Up to 20 patients will receive one cycle of treatment in this trial, with approximately 10 in each of the early and late virus groups.

The University of Leeds is covering all costs of the trial, while Oncolytics will provide REOLYSIN(R).
