Combination Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Chemotherapy-refractory Metastatic MSS CRC

Официальное название

A Phase 1b/2 Study of Combination Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Chemotherapy-refractory Metastatic Microsatellite Stable (MSS) Colorectal Cancer (CRC)

Обзор

Phase 1b/2 open-label study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of combination immunotherapy with nadunolimab (anti-IL-1RAP) and toripalimab (anti-PD-1) in patients with chemotherapy-refractory metastatic microsatellite stable (MSS) colorectal cancer. Phase 1b will assess dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), while Phase 2 will evaluate objective response rate (ORR), including progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), disease control rate (DCR), and duration of response (DOR). Exploratory analyses will investigate immunomodulatory effects through tumor and peripheral blood studies, and treatment will continue every 3 weeks for up to 1 year or until disease progression.

Подробное описание

This is a Phase 1b/2, open-label study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of nadunolimab (anti-IL-1RAP) in combination with toripalimab (anti-PD-1) in adults with chemotherapy-refractory metastatic microsatellite stable (MSS) colorectal cancer. The Phase 1b portion serves as a safety run-in with up to 6 subjects to assess the safety of a single dose of the combination therapy. Following this, Phase 2 will enroll up to 21 subjects, with the first 6 from Phase 1b included in the Phase 2 analysis to assess the primary efficacy endpoint. Eligible participants must have biopsy-confirmed MSS colorectal cancer (non-MSI-high or pMMR), whose disease has progressed during or following 5-FU, oxaliplatin and/or irinotecan-based chemotherapy with or without a biological agent. Subjects must have have measurable disease and tumor accessible for core needle biopsy. Participants will receive nadunolimab 5 mg/kg and toripalimab 240 mg intravenously every three weeks, continuing for up to one year or until disease progression. Primary objectives: For Phase 1/b, to determine the safety and tolerability of combination immunotherapy in subjects with chemotherapy-refractory metastatic non-MSI-high/pMMR CRC. For Phase 2, to determine the efficacy of combination immunotherapy in subjects with chemotherapy-refractory metastatic non-MSI-high/pMMR CRC as measured by the objective response rate (ORR) achieved. Subjects will undergo core needle biopsies, blood collection, and repeat imaging throughout the study. This study is conducted at Mount Sinai Hospital under IRB and PRMC oversight. The results will provide important information on the safety and potential efficacy of combining nadunolimab and toripalimab in a population with limited treatment options.

Критерии участия

Критерии включения

• Patients must have a pathologically confirmed diagnosis of non-MSI-H/pMMR CRC.
• Patients must have progressed (clinically or radiographically) on or after standard chemotherapy, including fluoropyrimidines, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan, or are intolerant to standard chemotherapy. Patients may have received, if eligible, anti-VEGF or anti-EGFR antibodies in combination with chemotherapy.
• Patients must have at least 1 measurable target lesion at baseline ≥ 10mm in the longest diameter.
• Patient must be willing and able to provide blood samples (6 heparinized, and two streck tubes, roughly 70 - 80 mL) at the time points indicated in the Study Calendar.
• Patients must have at least 1 lesion suitable for core needle biopsies.
• Patients must be willing and able to have core needle biopsies, if clinically feasible (Goal 3-6 biopsies, final number to be determined by the interventionalist performing the procedure as safe), of tumor prior to initiation of study drug. Should patients undergo pre-treatment or on-treatment biopsy procedure and inadequate number of biopsies are obtained, they may proceed with initiation/continuation of treatment at the discretion of the investigator and treating physician.
• Age ≥ 18 years.
• ECOG Performance Status 0-1 (Karnofsky ≥60%, see https://ecog-acrin.org/resources/ecog-performance-status/). o Patients with performance status >1 carrying long-term disability (such as cerebral palsy) where the disability is not acute nor progressive, and unlikely to significantly affect their response to therapy may be enrolled at the investigator's discretion
• Women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) and men must agree to use adequate contraception prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for 4 months following completion of therapy. Should a study participant become pregnant or suspect pregnancy while participating in this study, the study participant should inform the treating physician immediately. A female of child-bearing potential is any woman (regardless of sexual orientation, having undergone a tubal ligation, or remaining celibate by choice) who meets the following criteria: o Has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or o Has not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 12 consecutive months
• Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent. • Adequate organ and marrow function

Критерии исключения
