Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Single arm, multicentre, prospective, observational biomarker study.

Patients will have standard chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Patients participating in this study will have a multiparametric MRI at the following four time points:
1. Prior to chemoradiotherapy
2. During the second week of treatment
3. During the fourth week of treatment
4. At 6-8 weeks post treatment

A Multiparametric MRI incorporates standard morphological as well as diffusion weighted and dynamic contrast enhanced sequences. Each MRI takes approximately 45 minutes. All sequences will be performed on all patients at each of the 4 time points.

Observation post treatment is for 6 months.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. Patient capable of providing informed consent
2. Patient deemed suitable for protocol treatment as
assessed by Radiation and Medical Oncologists
3. Histological diagnosis of invasive primary squamous
cell carcinoma of the anal canal
4. TNM Stage: T2-4, N0-3 based on the
following diagnostic workup
a. History & physical examination
b. Digital Rectal Exam (DRE) stating primary size and
distance from anal verge
c. Groin examination with documentation of any
lymphadenopathy (location: right vs. left; medial vs.
lateral; mobile vs. fixed; and size)
d. Clinically positive nodes
i .Small inguinal nodes < 1cm in size felt to be clinically
positive must be confirmed via biopsy
ii. A biopsy is not needed for enlarged inguinal,
perirectal or pelvic nodes on examination or imaging
if >1cm and considered to be clinically positive
e. Anal biopsy
f. CT abdomen and pelvis
g. PET/CT
Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age
No limit
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
1. ECOG performance status >2
2. Significant comorbidities that would interfere with
the completion of treatment
3. Renal insufficiency (Creatinine > 150)
4. Prior radiotherapy to the pelvis that would overlap in
the treatment fields
5. Prior surgery for cancer of the anus that removed all
macroscopic cancer
6. Prior systemic chemotherapy for anal cancer
7. Evidence of distant metastases (M1) if this precludes
radical pelvic treatment
8. Women who are pregnant or lactating
9. Inability to have a MRI due to:
a. Implanted magnetic metal e.g. intraocular metal
b. Pacemaker / Implantable defibrillator
c. Extreme claustrophobia
