This is an open label, non-randomised, phase I, sequential group trial which will explore the safety and tolerability of ascending doses of AdNRGM, in combination with CB1954. Five groups of 3 patients each will be treated with escalating doses of AdNRGM (10\^10, 3x10\^10, 10\^11, 3x10\^11, 10\^12 vp) followed 2 days later by intravenous CB1954 at a fixed dose (24mg/m\^2). To ensure the coverage of the whole prostate the vector will be delivered by multiple, template-guided trans-perineal injections using an adaptation of standard prostate brachytherapy technique. Dose escalation will be dependent on safety and tolerability; at each dose-level, if dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is seen in one patient, the cohort will be expanded to a maximum of 6 patients. If DLT is then observed in a second patient at that dose, no further patients will be recruited and the previous (lower) dose-level will be defined as the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). If DLT is seen in 0/3 or just 1/6 patients, dose escalation may continue.
