An expansion study of genotype-driven weekly irinotecan and capecitabine in combination with neoadjuvant radiotherapy for locally advanced rectal cancer with UGT1A1 *1*1 genotype

In our previous dose-escalation study, we uncovered the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of weekly irinotecan was escalated to 80 mg/m2 and 65 mg/m2 for UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 1 member A1 (UGT1A1) *1*1 and *1*28 rectal cancer patients in neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT). This is an expansion study for *1*1 patients
